Megan Bina, DO

I strive to create a space for my patient to feel comfortable, safe, and listened to. I believe in treating the whole human to help achieve their health goals.

Family lore says that I have wanted to be a doctor since before even I can recall, but it’s true that I have always loved learning about the body– how it works, how at times it doesn’t work, and the innate ability of the body to heal itself.

I entered medical school thinking I would become a hematologist/oncologist, as I had spent time working in a bone marrow transplant lab in college. My first rotation in medical school was obstetrics and gynecology. I was totally hooked! I loved the blend of surgery and medicine, and the beauty and honor of walking with women through their health from adolescence, reproductive years, and into menopause. Throughout medical school, I would often ask my friends who were on OB/GYN rotation what they got to see and do– and still today, I’m in awe of the field I’m in, the people I meet, and the work I get to do on a daily basis. From delivering babies to family planning to life-changing surgery to an annual exam: I am honored to be trusted in these vulnerable and important moments.

I am coming to Oakdale OB/GYN with 10 years of experience in the field and in the area. I am very excited to be joining this group of providers who are leaders in the community.

I am from Minnesota, and currently live in Northeast Minneapolis. I love spending time with my family, going to my nieces’ sporting events, and snuggling with my dogs. I enjoy practicing yoga, hiking, traveling, cooking, and taking care of my “jungle” of houseplants. I want to be a golfer, and am considering learning how to downhill ski soon.
