Holy Name today announced the appointment of Andrea Hubschmann, MD, MBA, FACOG, as Chair of the Obstetrics and Gynecology (OB/GYN) department and Associate Program Director of the OB/GYN Residency Program, which will welcome its inaugural class of residents in June 2026. Dr. Hubschmann brings more than 15 years of experience in obstetric and gynecologic care, a proven track record in quality and safety leadership, and a deep commitment to education and the long-term health of the communities she serves.

“Obstetrics and gynecology touch every stage of a woman’s life, and I never want that care to feel rushed, impersonal, or transactional,” said Dr. Hubschmann. “My goal is to build a department where patients feel genuinely seen and heard, where care is tailored to each person’s individual goals, and where safety and excellence are never compromised. That means investing in our people, our processes, and our programs so that every patient receives the very best we have to offer, and so that Holy Name becomes a regional destination for women’s health for generations to come.”

Dr. Hubschmann’s approach to leadership combines clinical excellence with operational discipline. Throughout her career, she has developed and scaled interdisciplinary programs addressing the full spectrum of women’s health — from prenatal care and labor and delivery safety to menopause and midlife wellness. Her experience building cross-department collaboration will benefit Holy Name’s patients and staff by improving patient outcomes, streamlining department operations, and creating an efficient and safer environment. She holds an MBA from the Johns Hopkins Carey School of Business with concentrations in Healthcare Innovation & Technology and Private and Public Sector Leadership, a credential that informs her focus on building sustainable, high-performing clinical teams.
