Dr. Catherine Pipan is a primary care physician board certified in family medicine at Inova Primary Care – Dulles South. She has a special interest in women’s and men’s health, geriatrics and chronic care management. Her goal is to provide compassionate comprehensive care to address the needs of her patients. Dr. Pipan believes in shared patient decision making: presenting medical information so patients can make informed decisions in the context of their individual belief system and culture. This care may involve reaching out to team members outside of the office setting (medical consultants, social workers, nutritionists, therapists etc.) to optimize available treatment to achieve a patient’s goals and the way they want to live.
