I was born in New Orleans, Louisiana, in 1944. My father was
employed as a chemist with Shell Oil and my mother was a school teacher. W e
moved to Houston, Texas, in 1946. As a youth,
I attained the rank of Eagle Scout, and worked for four years as a member of
the summer camp staff at Camp strake, in Conroe, Texas.
I attended The University of Texas @ Austin from 1962 – 1966, graduating cum
laude with a B.A. in psychology. At UT, I was named a Cactus outstanding
student, and elected to membership in the Friar Society. I entered Baylor
College of Medicine in Houston in 1966, and received my M.D. in 1970. Following
my internship year, I served two years as a Captain in the U.S. Air Force as a
flight surgeon, and returned to Houston and Baylor for residency training in
obstetrics and gynecology. I was chief resident in the Baylor program from
1975-1976.
I began private practice in 1976, and have maintained a close relationship with
the Baylor ob/gyn department, where I am a clinical associate professor. I was
certified by the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology in 1979, and now
voluntarily re-certify yearly. I have been on the attending staff at the Baylor
abnormal pap smear clinic for over twenty-five years, have twice been named
Baylor Voluntary Faculty Member of the Year, especially for my role as an
exacting teacher of gynecological surgery. I was named one of “H Magazine’s”
“Super-Doc’s” in 2003. I am a frequent guest speaker and lecturer on
gynecological topics such as hormone replacement therapy, abnormal pap smear
management, and sexuality issues, with recent talks to the Miami, Florida
Ob/Gyn Society, and the San Antonio Ob/Gyn Society.
I am married and have two adult children. My hobbies include cooking, alligator
hunting, and hiking.

Dr. Denise R. Nebgen,
M.D., Ph.D., D.D.S.
I was born in San Antonio, Texas in 1964. I grew up in Boerne Texas,
and attended Texas A&M University for my undergraduate education.
I initially earned a dental degree (DDS) from the University of
Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio,
and then spent 2 years in training towards becoming an Oral and
Maxillofacial Surgeon. During this training I became interested
in bone growth, and embryological development and completed a PhD
in 1995 in molecular biology and biochemistry from Northwestern
University in Chicago. I then received advanced standing towards
medical school, and in continuing my pursuit of education, I completed
an MD in 1997. Due to my interests in development and women’s
health, I entered the specialty of Obstetrics and Gynecology, and
completed the Baylor OB/GYN Residency in Houston in June of 2001.
On the same day as the completion of my residency, I gave birth
to our first son. I entered private practice in the Texas Medical
Center in August of 2001.
I am board certified in Obstetrics and Gynecology. I have recently
limited my practice to gynecology, minimally invasive procedures,
and pelvic and reconstructive surgery. My areas of special interest
include: adolescent gynecology, contraception, the management of
normal and abnormal pap smears, menopause, hormone replacement,
osteoporosis, and routine preventive care.
I am a Clinical Assistant Professor of Obstetrical and Gynecology
at the Baylor College of Medicine and Weill Cornell Medical College.
As such, I am participating in medical resident education and teaching.
In additional to my private practice I am participating in clinical
research, and publishing articles in peer reviewed journals. I have
recently been granted a patent for the protein that I identified
during my PhD/doctoral research.
I have a significant background of experience at both a personal
and a professional level in a variety of medical fields as well
as my specialty of Obstetrics and Gynecology, and I look forward
to sharing it with you while providing you with excellent medical
care.
Welcome to my practice!
