Kevin Stamm, MD, Parkview Physicians Group (PPG) – OB/GYN, has provided obstetric and gynecological care in Huntington and surrounding counties for 18 years. Now he is focused on serving residents of Kosciusko and Whitley counties.
He has joined Dr. Gregory Todd in the PPG – OB/GYN office on the Parkview Kosciusko Hospital (PKH) campus, 1355 Mariners Drive, Warsaw.
“We are truly fortunate that Dr. Stamm has chosen to be based in Warsaw,” said Scott Gabriel, market president, Parkview Health Northwest. “Patients can be confident of the care they’ll receive from an experienced OB/GYN of his caliber and experience, especially knowing his team can support them through all stages of life.”
Stamm has helped women from across the region manage their health and grow their families, having delivered some 2,400 babies at Parkview facilities, primarily at Parkview Huntington Hospital. Now based in Warsaw, he facilitated another noteworthy birth when he delivered the first set of twins to be born at PKH’s Family Birthing Center since it opened in September last year. Helping to bring new life into the world is what originally inspired him to choose obstetrics and gynecology as his specialty.
“The best thing that ever happened in the whole four years of med. school was the first delivery I was involved with,” Stamm said. “I knew right then that was what I wanted to do.”
Stamm completed his OB/GYN residency at St. Vincent Hospital and Health Services, Indianapolis, after earning his medical degree from Indiana University School of Medicine. He received his undergraduate degree in zoology from Butler University.
He is a fellow of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG).
Stamm enjoys caring for his patients throughout their lives. Having observed that many women tend to put the needs of their families, co-workers and others first while neglecting themselves, he encourages them to prioritize their own health so they are able to deal with the demands of a full life. He also wants each woman to have the most up-to-date healthcare information related to her specific health situation and lifestyle.
“Listening to my patients to understand their issues and concerns is very important,” he said, “and I try to answer their questions thoroughly and educate them on the latest research and possible interventions. Patients should be fully involved in the decisions made to help them safeguard their health.”
Stamm is also a U.S. Army veteran. Earlier in his career, he served in the Army Medical Corps at Blanchfield Army Community Hospital, Fort Campbell, Ky., home of the 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault).
