I’m Dr. Lynn Parker. I'm a gynecologic oncologist, or female cancer surgeon. I was drawn to the specialty because there are a lot of cancers in women that are preventable or very responsive to treatment. There are not many specialists available, so I felt like this was an area of medicine where I could make a difference. We're getting more educated about GYN cancers so there is a lot we can do to prevent them and to treat them. It's very important that women with gynecologic malignancy see it gynecologic oncologist, because their chances of care are much higher if we can participate in their care. When I was young and had some family members who unfortunately had cancer, so I knew I wanted to do something in regards to cancer treatment. I was very drawn to gynecologic oncology, because it's an area of medicine where we do surgery, we do chemotherapy, but we also get to know not only the patient, but also their family. So it is a family-like atmosphere in our office.
I like the fact that patients feel at home. They are very close to not only
Myself, but also the other members of my staff and it means a lot. I actually grew up in Southern Illinois about three hours from here, but have lived here in Kentucky for about 11 years. I play tennis. I'm a mom and a wife and I feel very drawn to outdoor activities.
