USF Health physician receives breast cancer fellowship for GYN oncologists
The Society of Gynecologic Oncologists (SGO) and The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists have named USF Health’s Marcia M. Humphrey Schmidt, MD, as the first recipient of their jointly developed Breast Cancer Fellowship for Gynecologic Oncologists.
“We are excited to be able to offer Dr. Humphrey Schmidt this opportunity to further expand her knowledge and expertise into the area of breast disease,” said SGO President Daniel Clarke-Pearson, MD. “As experts in women’s cancer care, it seems only natural that gynecologic oncologists, who already possess an in-depth understanding of some women’s cancers, would be interested in obtaining concentrated, advanced specialty training in the care and treatment of breast disease. Our goal in creating this program with The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists was to allow gynecologic oncologists the opportunity to expand their practices to include more aspects of women’s cancer care and, hopefully, pave the way for patients to get comprehensive cancer care in a single place.”
