Personal and Compassionate Breast Health Care

Dr. Christine Habib is a Board Certified General Surgeon with a longstanding Breast Surgery practice.  She completed her medical education in 1998, obtaining a combined BS/MD at Northeastern Ohio Universities College of Medicine (NEOUCOM). 

 

Dr. Habib completed her General Surgery Residency at St. Elizabeth Hospital in Youngstown, Ohio.  After practicing as a General Surgeon for several years in the Northern Virginia area, she came to Columbus in 2012 and has maintained an active practice as a Breast Surgical specialist.  She also enjoys being part of the teaching staff for medical students and residents as well. 

Dr. Habib has a personal passion caring for patients with breast diseases.  Breast cancer has significantly impacted her own family, as it does so many families in our community.  She stays true to “The Golden Rule,” treating all of her patients the way she would want to be treated.

Dr. Habib lives in Dublin with her husband and two young sons.  She enjoys spending time with her family and attending her sons’ golf, soccer, and baseball games.  She is active in her Church and often visits her close extended family in the northern suburbs of Cincinnati.
