Dr. Larkin has been practicing internal medicine in Cincinnati since 1991. After 11 years teaching and practicing at the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine, she made the choice to shift her focus from teaching to high-quality patient care. In July 2002, Dr. Larkin opened her own practice, guided by the philosophy that she could better serve her patients’ medical needs in a smaller, more personal practice and in an environment over which she had more control.
Originally from Long Island, Dr. Larkin earned her undergraduate degree from Skidmore College in upstate New York and her medical degree from Yale University’s School of Medicine. She then completed her internal medicine residency at the University of Chicago Hospitals. Dr. Larkin became board certified in 1991 and re-certified in 2001.
Dr. Larkin has a specific interest in women’s health, particularly in the care of women during the peri-menopause and menopause transition and in female sexual issues. In 2001, she completed an advanced credentialing course in menopause and menopause management and is now a certified menopause clinician through the North American Menopause Society.
She has received numerous academic achievement awards and service awards for her outstanding dedication to her patients. Consistently recognized as one of Cincinnati’s best physicians, Dr. Larkin was featured on the cover of Cincinnati Magazine’s Top Doctors issue in November 2002. She is active in the American College of Physicians and the North American Menopause Society.
Dr. Larkin resides in Indian Hill with her husband, John Larkin, M.D., and their two children, Sydney and John. She enjoys active and adventure travel and tennis.
