About Edith Antonio MD
Edith Antonio, MD earned her Bachelor of Arts in Neuroscience and Behavior from Barnard College in New York, NY. She continued her education and obtained her Doctor of Medicine from Columbia University Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons in New York, NY. She completed her residency in obstetrics and gynecology at Brown University/ Women & Infant’s Hospital of Rhode Island.
Dr. Antonio’s clinical interests include fibroids, menopause, and gynecological surgery, with a particular focus on helping patients navigate their reproductive and gynecologic health with confidence and support.
Her approach to care is grounded in patient-centered medicine, shared decision-making, and evidence-based practice. She believes every patient deserves to feel heard, respected and comfortable being themselves. By taking the time to listen, explain options, and make decisions together, she strives to ensure each patient feels supported and has a strong advocate in their corner. Her goal is to provide personalized care that reflects each patient’s individual needs, values and goals.
Her passion for medicine was inspired by a lifelong desire to help others and by the incredibly strong women who raised her. Becoming an OB/GYN has given her the opportunity to honor those women while making a meaningful difference in the lives of her patients and feels incredibly fortunate to be able to do so.

Why aren’t there any ratings?
We do not have a rating for this provider for one of the following reasons:- Provider was newly added to our survey process and has not yet received the minimum number (30) of survey returns. Check back soon for results!
- If this provider’s biography page does not specify practicing at Southcoast Physicians Group or a Southcoast hospital site (Charlton Memorial, St. Luke’s or Tobey Hospital), he/she is affiliated with Southcoast Health Network but not employed by Southcoast Physicians Group. Our affiliates are not included in our survey process.
- If this provider’s biography page specifies practicing at Charlton Memorial, St. Luke’s or Tobey Hospital, without reference to an outpatient practice, he/she delivers care in the inpatient hospital setting only; inpatient surveys do not include questions about individual providers.
Southcoast Health physician profiles now feature star ratings. Below, you’ll find frequently asked questions about our process for calculating the ratings.
Why does Southcoast publish survey ratings online?
Southcoast is dedicated to providing patients and consumers with helpful information about the quality of our patients’ experiences. Star ratings published on our physician biography pages are based on actual responses from patients of that particular physician to patient satisfaction surveys that are distributed and processed by a national patient satisfaction survey vendor.
Who receives the survey?
Our vendor sends surveys via SMS or email to all patients seen in our outpatient physician practices who have a valid smart phone number or email address on file with Southcoast Health. Surveys are sent to patients within a few days of their appointment.
How is the Patient Satisfaction Star Rating Calculated?
Star ratings are calculated using an average of all survey responses to each of three questions: Courtesy and Respect of Staff, Provider Overall Rating, and Willingness to Recommend Provider’s Office. The star rating displayed on our physicians’ main biography page represents the average of the three measures for that particular physician.
