Transcript

My name is Heather Williams. I am an assistant professor of gynecological oncology at the UAMS Winthrop Rockefeller Cancer Institute.

I treat women with gynecologic cancers that includes ovarian, uterine, cervical, and vulvar and vaginal.

I really was drawn to gynecologic oncology—the treatment of women’s cancers—because I saw a need for it, and the patients are just so grateful for the care that you give them.

We really do have a great team, and we were actually just listed in the top 10% of high-performing institutions for gynecologic cancer surgery and care. In addition, our cancer center was also listed. This is a recognition through the U.S. News & World Report. It puts us on par with larger named institutions around the country.
