Jonas J Swartz
Assistant Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology
Current Research Interests
I am interested in health policy issues that impact care for the underserved. My research aims to build evidence that can help reduce health disparities with a special focus on immigrants, Medicaid policy and access to abortion and contraception. I also have specific interests in crisis pregnancy centers, and fulfillment of desired tubal ligation for permanent contraception.
