Get to know Obstetrician-Gynecologist Dr. Scott R. Partridge, who serves patients in Chandler, Arizona.

Dr. Partridge is a dedicated obstetrician-gynecologist in practice with MomDoc, operating out of the office in Chandler, Arizona. He offers comprehensive care to women at every life stage, whether it involves pregnancy, contraception, menopause, or routine check-ups, ensuring their comfort and convenience throughout the process.

Born in Cheyenne, Wyoming, after high school, he served for two years as a missionary in Colombia and Venezuela for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Dr. Partridge completed his undergraduate studies at Brigham Young University in 1976 where he graduated Magna Cum Laude with a major in Zoology and a minor in both Chemistry and Spanish. Following this, he obtained his Medical Degree from the University of Colorado School of Medicine in 1979, where he was nominated as the Outstanding Student in Obstetrics and Gynecology. 

With a career spanning more than four decades, Dr. Partridge has been involved in over 20,000 pregnancies and assumed the role of Chief of Staff at Chandler Regional Hospital in 2002. Notably, he shares this distinction with only one other OB/GYN physician at the hospital, his partner, Dr. Clifford J. Goodman, Jr. (deceased).

A Fellow of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (FACOG), Dr. Partridge is board certified in obstetrics and gynecology by the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology (ABOG). The mission of the ABOG is to define standards, certify obstetricians and gynecologists, and facilitate continuous learning to advance knowledge, practice, and professionalism in women’s health.

Obstetrics and Gynecology is the medical specialty that encompasses the two subspecialties. An obstetrician-gynecologist, or OB-GYN, is a healthcare professional who specializes in female reproductive health.

On a more personal note, Dr. Partridge speaks both English and Spanish.
