Dr. Roxana Mohhebali-Solis, MD, is a dedicated obstetrician-gynecologist practicing in Edinburg, Texas, where she serves as Associate Program Director for the newly launched OB-GYN residency program at DHR Health. After completing her residency in 2023, she quickly stepped into a leadership role in graduate medical education, helping build a brand-new residency program designed to train future physicians to serve an underserved region of South Texas. In her clinical practice, Dr. Mohhebali-Solis provides comprehensive care across the full spectrum of women’s health, including prenatal and postnatal care, labor and delivery, cesarean sections, and gynecologic surgeries such as hysterectomies, while supporting patients through every stage of life.
The daughter of immigrants who instilled in her the value of hard work and perseverance, Dr. Mohhebali-Solis pursued her medical education at Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center in El Paso, where she earned her medical degree on a full scholarship. She then completed her residency in obstetrics and gynecology at the University of California, Davis in Sacramento. Following residency, she served as a hospitalist at UC Davis and later joined Vanderbilt University Medical Center as associate faculty, where she taught residents while also maintaining her own clinical practice. Her career reflects a strong commitment to both patient care and the education of future physicians.
Dr. Mohhebali-Solis is particularly passionate about improving healthcare literacy and access for women throughout South Texas. She enjoys educating teenage girls about reproductive health, guiding women through menopause, and helping patients feel empowered in making informed healthcare decisions. Through her leadership in residency training, she aims to develop physicians who will remain in the Rio Grande Valley and continue serving the local community.

What do you enjoy most about practicing medicine?
What I love most about practicing medicine is being part of those incredible, life-changing moments. I still remember witnessing my first vaginal delivery during my third year of medical school - seeing a woman give birth surrounded by her family was just beautiful and powerful. I love that I get to care for two patients at once, mom and baby, in a fast-paced environment. Women's health has always been my passion, especially because there wasn't a lot of education about it when I was growing up. Now I get to provide that education to my patients. I love seeing my teenage girls in clinic and talking with them about contraception and health, then watching them progress through different stages of their lives. I also love helping my elderly patients transition through menopause. It's the full spectrum of women's lives - the clinical practice, the surgical aspect with C-sections and hysterectomies, and the relationships I build with patients over time. And now, teaching residents and building this new OBGYN program is one of the things that excites me most. I'm helping train the future of medicine.
