“...I find I can still make a difference in the lives of the women I see every day.”
Dr. Iphigenia Balodimos grew up always wanting to be a doctor. “My father was a physician and ever since I was four years old I would pretend I was a doctor with my dad,” she explains. “I come from a family of physicians and represent the third generation to enter medicine and become a doctor.”
Dr. Balodimos chose to practice in OB-Gyn because she likes doing a bit of everything. “During my residency I loved delivering babies and taking care of women throughout their lifespan. I don’t perform deliveries now but I find I can still make a difference in the lives of the women I see every day.”
In her practice Dr. Balodimos treats many different issues including abnormal bleeding, menopausal problems, abnormal pap smears, vulvar issues, pelvic pain and problems concerning sexual function. Dr. Balodimos loves the challenge of making a correct medical diagnosis. “I have actually developed several algorithms to help with diagnosing difficult problems and use them in my practice when I can.”
One of the things that Dr. Balodimos enjoys the most about Reliant Medical Group is that the patients always come first. “I love the fact that here I can take care of patients to not only meet the standard of care but have the support to actually exceed the standards that have been set.”
When she is not busy with patients Dr. Balodimos loves to travel as well as spend time with her pets. She presently has seven dogs, four of which she delivered herself. She is also involved in the Greek community in Boston as well as various charitable organizations.

My ObGyn of many years retired. She recommended Dr. Baladimos for my new local gynecologist. I have had some vaginal complications following major spine surgery. Dr. Baladimos really listened to me, and gave me excellent advice. She also followed up an abnormal Pap smear with another test including HPV.

This patient rated the doctor 5 out of 5 stars.
This doctor was excellent! She took the time to explain, show me diagrams and to listen to my concerns. She spent 30 minutes with me and I felt heard and that she answered my questions completely. She was terrific and I'd happily recommend her to others, in fact I already have!
This patient rated the doctor 5 out of 5 stars.
I did have a serious concern to discuss with the doctor. She was right on top of explaining everything to me and making sure I understood what the plan was and how comfortable I was with the plan. She did not leave me until she was sure I was in a good place with the future plans. My doctor is amazing and she helps me through difficult times concerning my health and what needs to be done. I trust her immensely.
This patient rated the doctor 5 out of 5 stars.
The Dr is always extremely thorough. She listens carefully and explains things in detail, sometimes using visual aids and graphs. She goes over all options to a problem and supports the patient's decisions.
