In addition to being proficient in general obstetrics and gynecology, Dr. Linton’s areas of expertise include contraception in women with complex medical conditions, pregnancy options counseling, and management of complex pregnancies and pregnancy loss in the first and second trimester.
Dr. Linton’s research interests include finding ways to improve access to full range reproductive health services through education, advocacy, policy development, and organizational-level changes. In partnership with Health Care Education and Training (HCET) and four Milwaukee County Health Departments, Allison Linton, MD, MPH (Obstetrics and Gynecology Generalist) has been awarded an Advancing a Healthier Wisconsin (AHW) grant on “Lowering Uninsured, STI & Unintended Pregnancy at Milwaukee County Health Departments.”
Dr. Linton is actively involved in the education of residents and medical students, and received Northwestern’s “Excellence in Student Teaching Award” every year during her training. She is also interested in global health teaching and clinical care, with previous trips in Africa, Asia, and Central America. Most recently, she developed and taught an Obstetrics and Gynecology curriculum with a focus on family planning to refugee midwives on the Thai/Myanmar border.
Dr. Linton sees patients in Froedtert’s Obstetrics and Gynecology Clinic and Froedtert’s Family Planning Clinic.
Outside of work, Dr. Linton likes to spend time with her family and friends, watching movies and documentaries, rooting for her favorite football team, traveling, and running along the Lake.
