In this #InTheLife video, Dr. Melanie Altizer, MBA, FACOG, OB/GYN Hospitalist, shares how her childhood summer beach vacation trips led to her fascination with sharks. Dr. Altizer became open water scuba diving certified and travels across open seas to swim alongside sharks while also enjoys educating others about the vital role sharks play in our ecosystems. Dr. Altizer says being in the open water is her escape from her day-to-day role as an OB/GYN hospitalist, allowing her to pursue her passion and experience the beauty of these sea creatures.
