Our Attentive Obstetricians & Gynecologists
Women to women
Few experiences are as rewarding as delivering babies. This begins with conception planning, extends through prenatal visits, and culminates in a healthy birth. Every woman has her own expectations about how she envisions her birth experience. Our all female obstetrician team’s goal is to make this a memorable event.
We offer you a variety of experts in a single office that can care for the many aspects of gynecology, with the option of minimally invasive procedures when needed. Our female gynecologic surgeons are exceptionally trained in cutting edge surgical technologies such as
DaVinci Robotic Hysterectomy, Vaginal Reconstructional Surgery and Treatment for Urinary Incontenance.
We believe that delivering this high level of care with uncompromised patient satisfaction is what sets Copperstate OB/Gyn apart from other medical practices. Our patients are very important to us as we fulfill our mission to deliver comprehensive, contemporary, and most importantly compassionate medical care.

Karen Addis
M.D.
“Patients are people with diverse needs and wants. I look forward to long-term relationships with those I have had the privilege to care for in all phases of life.”
Paige Brainard
M.D.
“I wanted to establish and maintain patient relationships – becoming an OB/GYN offered me the chance to pursue that goal. I’m able to share medical and life experiences with my patients. Right now, I’m caring for a second generation pregnancy; I’ll deliver the baby of a woman I delivered.”
Katherine Farias
M.D.
“I strive to treat my patients with the love, concern and respect that I would want for myself, my family members and my friends. As a woman and mother, I understand the challenges in achieving a comfortable balance between the many demands on your time. I want to provide a compassionate space where we can help you take care of yourself as well as care for those around you.”
Elizabeth Weisert
M.D.
“My patients are some of the most remarkable women I have ever met. I am
constantly amazed at the ability of my patients to cope with the multitude of
issues that confront them daily.”
Lori Mulick
WHNP
A Physician I once worked with told me: “Compassion is the key to success. As
long as you always listen and respond to your patients, you will be successful”.
This has helped pave my practice and my success.
Katy Hoeft
PA-C
Katy has over 20 years of experience in Medicine; she believes in a holistic approach to women’s health care and values the partnership between the patient and provider. Providing a safe space for patients to feel heard in a compassionate manner allows Katy to help patients feel empowered about their unique concerns. Recently becoming a yoga teacher has further solidified her belief in the mind-body connection.
Taber Bingham
FNP-C
“I appreciate the continuum of women’s life stages; finding joy in treating teens to mature women irrespective of their life circumstances. I acknowledge that every stage affects women differently allowing me to provide specialized care. My career started in 2004, guiding obstetrical patients through their journey. I truly do have a tender spot for them while understanding the complexities that often accompany pregnancy. Providing compassion to each unique patient is my highest priority.“
