GYN <strong>Cancer</strong> Program<br />
In recent years, our physicians noted a<br />
growing number of patients coming to<br />
<strong>WellStar</strong> seeking treatment for gynecological<br />
cancers, including cervical, endometrial<br />
and ovarian. To address this need, we have<br />
planned a multidisciplinary subcommittee<br />
to be led by Jeffery Hines, M.D., and Amy<br />
Carroll, M.D. The subcommittee will meet<br />
quarterly at <strong>WellStar</strong> Cobb Hospital and will<br />
include representatives from each discipline<br />
that treats gynecological cancer. A priority of<br />
this group will be assigning a nurse navigator<br />
who will assess needs and develop programs<br />
and services to meet the specific needs of<br />
this population of our patients.<br />
