Dr. Michelle Debbink considers it a privilege and honor to care for others during life-changing and vulnerable moments. As a maternal-fetal medicine specialist, she provides prenatal care for patients with high-risk or rare medical conditions, such as diabetes and congenital heart disease. She also specializes in abnormal placenta conditions like placenta previa and placenta accreta spectrum disorders, as well as fetal and genetic conditions, including twin and higher-order multiple pregnancies and anomalies.

As a fellowship-trained specialist, Dr. Debbink provides services including vaginal and cesarean delivery, complicated cesarean delivery and cesarean hysterectomy, cervical cerclage, intrauterine transfusion (IUT), and percutaneous umbilical cord sampling (PUBS), and amniocentesis.

Dr. Debbink is currently accepting new patients. To schedule an appointment or for more information, please call the Women’s Health Center at 801-213-2995.

Dr. Debbink earned her bachelor’s degrees in sociology and health policy from Rice University in Houston, Texas. She received her medical degree from the University of Michigan Medical School, where she also completed her PhD in health services organization and policy along with her obstetrics and gynecology residency. In 2017, she moved to Salt Lake City to complete her fellowship in maternal-fetal medicine at the University of Utah. This means she has completed special training in the field of high-risk pregnancy.

Her research focuses on racial, ethnic, and geographic inequities and disparities in perinatal outcomes, including low birth weight, small for gestational age, maternal morbidity, and maternal mortality. Dr. Debbink is particularly interested in how social structures, neighborhood factors, and health policy produce and reinforce perinatal health disparities among Black, Indigenous, and other people of color.

Through research and practice, Dr. Debbink aims to collaborate on efforts to support resilient, strong communities for all pregnant and parenting folks and their families. She looks forward to building supportive, trusting relationships with patients across Utah.

Outside of her medical practice and research, Dr. Debbink enjoys spending time with her family and dogs, reading, hiking, skiing, camping, stargazing, playing board games, and finding quiet moments near the water.
