About Tonya Perkins
I am a Board Certified Obstetrician Gynecologist with 20 years experience practicing clinical medicine and 10+ years working in Utilization Review. As a proud Navy Veteran who worked as a General Medical Officer in Emergency Medicine and Family Practice, I am dedicated, disciplined, and resourceful in managing, advising, and directing the health of patients. Additionally, I have been the sole proprietor of a private OB/GYN practice for 12 years. As a medical professional and leader I currently work as a Medical Director for Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield, a subsidiary of Elevance Health, where I continue my passion for medicine and serving the needs of patients in an administrative capacity.
