She enjoys the long-term relationships she has made with so many of her patients. Her special interests include adolescent gynecology, contraception, abnormal bleeding, menopause, and sexual health. She has been named a Boston Magazine Top Doctor in both 2020 and 2021. 

Dr. Attanucci lives in Newton with her husband and three kids. In her free time, she enjoys running, hiking with her dog, travel, and live theater.
