Shosh Ruskin, CRNP

Shosh has been with Lifecycle since 2017. She provides gynecological, prenatal, and postpartum care to our clients. Prior to coming to Lifecycle, she earned her MSN/BSN from Massachusetts General Hospital Institute of Health Professions and provided reproductive and sexual health services in the Boston area.

Shosh entered this profession “because so many of us – women, queer folks, people of color, among others – have had negative experiences within the healthcare system, particularly when accessing OB/GYN care. I strive to provide care that values kindness, bodily autonomy, and shared decision making. And, it’s fun!”

She is “inspired by all things DIY, from crafting, to food preservation, to baby-making”. In addition to her work at LWC, she collaborates with Ray Rachlin, CPM to provide at-home intrauterine insemination (IUI) and fertility services for queer families, single parents, and other non-traditional families.

She lives in West Philly with her partner, Ari Lev, and their two children.
