In order to be a good doctor, it is important that you treat each patient as if they were your grandmother, mother, wife, sister or daughter. Each patient is special and they should be made to feel that way.
Dr. Novoa was born in Lima, Peru. He graduated with honors from Meharry Medical School in 1995. He completed his residency in obstetrics and gynecology through the Greater Baltimore Medical Center (GBMC) in Baltimore, MD in 1999.
In August 1999, Dr. Novoa moved to El Paso from Baltimore, Maryland and over a three year period of time developed one of the largest OB/GYN practices in El Paso. In 2003, Dr. Novoa expanded his practice to include cosmetic procedures and is currently the only Cosmetic OB/GYN in the El Paso area providing services to include Cosmetic Surgery, Reproductive Health, Sexual Medicine and Obstetrics/Gynecology and AWAKE procedures as well as primary care services and high-risk obstetrical care to include Vaginal Birth After Cesarean Section (VBAC) and Vaginal Birth After Cesarean Section x2 (VBA2C).
The Cosmetic OB/GYN practices a multi-disciplinary "Minimally Invasive Surgery" approach to the management of women's health care.
The philosophy of Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) is fundamentally based on the practice of medical techniques that prevent surgery, and, when surgery is necessary, it is the practice of surgical techniques that minimize scarring and shorten the period of postoperative recovery.
It is the practice of medicine which reduces the risks of Cesarean Section (C/S) and the promotion of the Vaginal Birth After Cesarean Section (VBAC). When a Cesarean Section is necessary, it is the practice of surgical techniques that reduce the size and appearance of C/S scarring to include the use of absorbable sutures rather than staples.
Dr. Novoa has impressive success rates with both uncomplicated and high-risk vaginal deliveries such as the VBAC. Despite delivering more than 3000 babies since starting his practice in 1999, and currently delivering around 150-200 babies per year, Dr. Novoa has one of the lowest primary Cesarean section rates in the United States which is currently lower than 10 percent for primary Cesarean Section deliveries.* His delivery stats are available online with monthly primary C/S rates as low as 10%, which is 3x lower than the national average. His current rate of Cesarean section for the VBAC/VBA2C is also 10%.*
