OB-GYN CARE IN SANTA BARBARA COUNTY
MEET DR. MELISSA DRAKE
Women's Healthcare Advocate
HI THERE
Thanks for stopping by!
I’m Dr. Melissa Drake, MD, FACOG, and I’ve been practicing obstetrics and gynecology since 2011, delivering over 3000 babies along the way. Throughout my career, I’ve always been driven by a desire to offer compassionate, personalized care.
After years in traditional healthcare, I decided to create a model where women receive the attention they truly deserve—longer appointment times, deeper connections, and care delivered directly to your home. This shift has allowed me to help my patients better understand their bodies and feel empowered in their healthcare decisions. I’m also passionate about giving back to my community, volunteering with local women’s groups and speaking at events that educate women about their health. I offer ongoing support via text to ensure you feel supported, informed, and valued every step of the way.

MY WONDER WOMAN SCRUB CAP
MY "SUPERVISORS"
(AKA - YOUR PETS)
History, horror, the occasional trashy romance. My bedside table is piled high. It’s always a safe bet to ask me what I’m reading.
During my busiest days I used to drink up to five cups a day (I know, please don’t judge me). I’ve cut way back, but I still live for it.
I won’t be parted from my lucky hat!
Visiting my patient's pets is one of the highlights of offering in-home services!
I adore them all!
