Full Biography

A Physician Defined by Focus, Precision, and Purpose

Education & Academic Formation

Dr. Ramona D. Andrei completed both her undergraduate and medical degrees at the University of Medicine in Romania, where she graduated with high honors and earned multiple academic awards. Her intellectual ambition did not stop at the MD — she simultaneously pursued and earned her PhD degree while serving as a Faculty Physician teaching medical students. This dual achievement is rare in clinical medicine and reflects the rigorous academic discipline that defines her approach to patient care.

The combination of a research doctorate and a clinical degree gives Dr. Andrei a depth of analytical thinking that most practicing physicians do not possess — a foundation she applies directly to complex gynecologic diagnoses that require more than a routine evaluation.

Residency & U.S. Training

Dr. Andrei completed her Residency in Obstetrics and Gynecology at Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit — one of Michigan’s premier academic medical centers and a nationally recognized training program. Her residency training placed her at the intersection of high-volume clinical exposure and academic medicine, sharpening both her surgical skills and her diagnostic instincts.

Following residency, she joined the Henry Ford Health System, where she developed her specialty focus in minimally invasive gynecologic surgery, including laparoscopic and robotic procedures.

Founding Lapeer Women’s Health

Dr. Andrei founded Lapeer Women’s Health with a deliberate and considered choice: to practice gynecology exclusively. In an era where most OB/GYN physicians split their time between delivering babies and managing gynecologic conditions, Dr. Andrei recognized that her patients deserved a physician whose entire focus, continuing education, and surgical experience was dedicated to their gynecologic health.

That decision has translated into a practice with over 25 years of GYN-only experience — a depth of specialization that is measurably different from what a general OB/GYN practice can offer. She performs robotic and laparoscopic GYN surgery at McLaren Lapeer Hospital, McLaren Flint Hospital, and Henry Ford Rochester Hospital, bringing minimally invasive options to women across Lapeer and Oakland Counties.

In addition to her clinical work, Dr. Andrei serves as Assistant Clinical Professor at Central Michigan University College of Medicine, where she contributes to training the next generation of physicians — a role that reflects both her commitment to the field and her standing within the academic medical community.

Her Approach

An Education-First, Patient-Centered Practice

Dr. Andrei believes that informed patients make better decisions and experience better outcomes. Her consultations are built around thorough explanation — what is happening, why it matters, and what every available option looks like before any decision is made.

Her academic background shapes this approach. A physician who has taught medical students and earned a research doctorate thinks differently about how knowledge is communicated — and brings that discipline into every patient conversation.

Education First
Patients leave every visit understanding their diagnosis, their options, and the reasoning behind any recommendation.
Continuity of Care
From first exam to surgery and recovery, patients see Dr. Andrei — not a rotation of different providers.
Personal Relationship
Dr. Andrei strives to build a personal and fulfilling relationship with each patient — one built on trust, respect, and honesty.
“I want every patient to feel informed, comfortable, and confident in their healthcare decisions — not just treated and sent home.”
Dr. Ramona D. Andrei — MD PhD FACOG
A Special Focus

Midlife Women’s Health

Perimenopause and menopause rarely show up as a single, tidy symptom. Sleep, mood, weight, energy, bleeding, and intimacy often change together — and too many women are told it’s “just aging.” Dr. Andrei’s gynecology-only focus and whole-picture approach are built for exactly this stage of life.

For women navigating these years, Dr. Andrei offers physician-led midlife and menopause care — a structured way to understand what’s happening and build a clear, personalized plan, with the same physician at every step.

Beyond the Office

The Person Behind the Practice

Dr. Andrei is married and has one daughter. Outside of medicine, she enjoys traveling and cooking — pursuits that reflect the same curiosity and care she brings to her work. Her international background, having trained and practiced on two continents, gives her a broader perspective on women’s health and a genuine appreciation for the patients who trust her with their care.

She founded Lapeer Women’s Health not as a business decision, but as a personal commitment — to build a practice where women receive the focused, unhurried, expert gynecologic care they deserve.

Questions About Dr. Andrei

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions patients ask before their first visit.

Yes. Dr. Andrei is accepting new patients at both the Lapeer office (1245 N Main St) and the Rochester Hills office (2710 S Rochester Rd, Suite 2). You can schedule directly online — no referral is required for most patients.
Dr. Andrei practices gynecology exclusively. She does not deliver babies or see obstetric patients. This is a deliberate choice — by focusing entirely on gynecology, she has developed a depth of diagnostic and surgical expertise that a combined OB/GYN practice cannot match. If you are pregnant and looking for obstetric care, her office can provide a referral recommendation.
Dr. Andrei performs gynecologic surgery herself — no separate surgical referral is needed. She performs robotic and laparoscopic (minimally invasive) procedures at McLaren Lapeer Hospital, McLaren Flint Hospital, and Henry Ford Rochester Hospital. Procedures include robotic hysterectomy, endometriosis excision, fibroid removal, ovarian cyst removal, prolapse repair, LEEP, and more. Your care stays with one physician from diagnosis through surgery and recovery.
A PhD alongside an MD is uncommon in clinical practice. It means Dr. Andrei completed rigorous research training in addition to her medical degree — a process that develops analytical thinking, precision, and a depth of understanding of medical science beyond what standard clinical training provides. For patients with complex or long-undiagnosed conditions, this academic foundation often makes a real difference in how thoroughly their symptoms are evaluated and explained.
