- EndocrinologyGreenville Women’s Care (GWC) is part of a 100 provider multi-specialty group known as Physicians East. Our GWC office is located just across the street from Vidant Medical Center, a 900+ bed academic medical center that is a tertiary care center and the home of East Carolina University’s Brody School of Medicine. The presence of a large neonatal ICU in the hospital allows our providers to do high risk as well as low risk obstetrics. We have a cordial and supportive relationship with the full-time ECU medical faculty, which includes sub specialists in Maternal Fetal Medicine, Gynecologic Oncology, and Reproductive Endocrinology/Infertility. We have found that the easy availability of consultations with sub specialists has enhanced the quality of our practice. We have also found that it is much easier to stay up to date with changes in our specialty due to the ongoing interaction that we have with residents and medical students in addition to the easy access to educational activities, such as the weekly grand rounds in OB-GYN. Call is shared equally with seven other physicians. For those interested in teaching residents, a Clinical position is available with the ECU SOM.
