About Me
Dr. Melissa Duncanson MD is a board certified OBGYN. Patients in San Mateo, California can see Dr. Duncanson for the full spectrum of obstetric and gynecologic care. Her specific professional interests include contraception, routine and high risk obstetrics, and surgical management of abnormal uterine bleeding.
“Born and raised on the Peninsula, I am so excited to return to and care for the women of San Mateo County! I chose the field of OB/GYN because it provides an unparalleled window into the lives of women and their families at some of the most intimate aspects of their lives. I enjoy the field’s unique blend of medical and surgical management, as well as the rewarding nature of providing longitudinal care over the course of a woman’s lifetime. Having recently delivered my first son at Mills-Peninsula in June 2021, I am thrilled to bring a new first-hand perspective to the OB care I provide!”
Dr. Duncanson is an alumnus of Hillsborough’s Crystal Springs Uplands School and then completed her undergraduate degree at Colgate University. She received her medical degree at the University of Utah, followed by her residency training at Washington Hospital Center/Georgetown University in Washington, DC.
She is thrilled to be back in Burlingame where she and her husband enjoy spending time outdoors with their 3-month-old son. She loves to water ski, hike, and travel – and is perpetually in search of the best soft serve in town.
