Ever since Christine McClusky's early teen years she's been interested in reproduction and development. As an adolescent she would eagerly rush home from biology class to show her then-pregnant mother school slides depicting embryos in various stages of development. Dr. McClusky grew up as one of eleven children in a small town outside Utica, New York. Upon completion of her medical training she worked as a hospital staff physician in OB/GYN, during which time her first daughter was born. In 1996 she moved to the Valley to start in private practice. Shortly after her arrival to Phoenix her second daughter was born. Since many of her patients have been with her since she first started private practice, Dr. McClusky considers their continued loyalty to be the biggest compliment she can receive. Some of her favorite pastimes are spending time with her children, swimming, hiking, snow skiing and snorkeling.
