Dr. Marashi was born in Iran in 1979 during the Iranian Revolution. The son of a well-known surgeon, he was introduced to medicine at a young age. Growing up, Dr. Marashi observed the double standard with which women were treated in his country; he was taught that sex was for and about men, and he was treated differently from his sister. He knew this was unfair. When Dr. Marashi moved to the UK and eventually to the US, he assumed that women would not be treated as second-class citizens. He was surprised to find that many were still fighting for sexual equality.

A strong proponent of practicing medicine equitably, Dr. Marashi travels around the globe to help patients in need. Throughout his career, he has helped numerous survivors of female genital mutilation.

 

Dr. Marashi has spearheaded several initiatives to promote female empowerment. In 2017, he took New York Fashion Week by storm by hosting the first Designer Vagina Fashion Show. This event aimed to normalize conversations about vaginas, eliminate the taboo around female sexuality, and empower women to take charge of their own orgasms. In 2020, he authored A Woman’s Right to Pleasure in collaboration with BlackBook. Through a compilation of art and essays by female-identifying artists, this book aims to destigmatize female sexual pleasure.

Today Dr. Marashi works to destigmatize sexual wellness around the world, and make sexuality an open and honest part of medical education.

Dr. Marashi is professional, compassionate and extremely responsive. I have referred to him multiple times and each time he has taken care of me and my issues promptly, kindly and with great results. After my first experience with him about 3 years ago, I stopped going to my previous Dr.

From the first time I met Dr. Marashi 7+ Yrs ago I knew I would never see another OBGYN. He was professional, patient, caring & discovered over time I had endometriosis.

I can not rave about him enough. He calms my mind (I get health anxiety and get very scared with anything medical) and from the moment I met him, I knew he knew his stuff and that I was safe and in good hands. I’m so blessed to have found him and look forward to being healthy and having him as my doctor.

Doctor Marashi is the best doctor. Bedside manners are amazing. He’s smart, funny and he knows his stuff. If I could rate him a 10 I would. I recommend him to anyone I know.
