Dr. Murray graduated from Mayo Medical School in Minnesota in 1987. After an internship at Georgetown University, she completed two years of psychiatry residency training at Mayo Clinic before deciding that women's health was a better fit. She then moved to Montreal, Canada, for residency and fellowship training in reproductive endocrinology.
