Brief Intro

My name is Richard Kreinest, MD, and I am a board-certified OB-GYN and an associate professor in the University of Florida Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology. I graduated from the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine in Ohio and completed my residency training at Wright State University and Affiliated Hospitals in Celina, Ohio. I served in the United States Air Force Medical Corps and spent four years as chief of obstetrics and gynecology at the 31st TFW Hospital in Homestead Air Force Base, Florida. I entered private practice in OB-GYN in Gainesville before joining the UF College of Medicine in 2003.My clinical interests include general obstetrics and gynecology, comprehensive obstetrical care, surgical gynecology and medical education. I am able to offer complete prenatal care, as well as nonsurgical, minimally invasive and traditional surgical options for women with abnormal bleeding, pelvic pain, cervical dysplasia and urinary incontinence.
