Gynecologic Oncology
Gynecologic cancer is the uncontrolled growth and spread of abnormal cells originating in the female reproductive organs, including the cervix, fallopian tubes, ovaries, uterus, vagina and vulva. While gynecologic cancer is a serious disease, the majority of cases can be treated and cured. The gynecologic oncology specialists at Baptist Medical Group provide comprehensive cancer care from diagnosis to treatment and recovery.
