I am in Mooresville near Charlotte.
I went to Forsyth Hospital in Winston Salem. Dr Charles Pippett is my gyn-onc and one of the best.

Hi. I live in Raleigh and receive treatment at Duke (in Durham). I've been getting all of my medical treatment (including a double-organ transplant) at Duke since I was in my teens. I'm now 54, and they've done a great job of keeping me alive and functioning. :-)
Some of the same GYN oncologists at Duke in Durham see patients at Duke's centers in Raleigh.

Hi All!
I live in Pittsboro, NC (near Chapel Hill). It's nice to see some locals! I went to UNC for my Ovarian Cancer Surgery (stage 4). My Oncologist was Dr. Boggess. He rocks. Literally and figuratively. He and other surgeons from around the country have formed a band and produced a new CD that was just released. It's called N.E.D. (No Evidence of Disease). All proceeds are being used for women's cancer research. Check out Nedtheband.org !! Please spread the word. The more you do, the more money will roll in and hence, the chance for a cure in our lifetime !!!

Hi ndsorMelva,
I live in upstate SC and use the Cancer Centers of the Carolinas. Dr. David Griffin is the Gyn/Onc for upstate SC.
Hope all is well and you have found a doctor you need.
