Southeastern Gynecologic Oncology, LLC (SEGO) proudly announces it has joined  Saint Joseph’s Medical Group (SJMG). This celebrated move allows SEGO to partner with Saint Joseph’s in providing the best gynecological oncology care to patients throughout Georgia.

As the largest private practice in the nation focusing solely on Gynecologic Oncology services, SEGO is the ideal partner to further advance Saint Joseph’s focus and dedication to providing quality cancer care within the community. With nine locations in the greater-Atlanta area, the SEGO practice currently reaches 85-percent of GYN/Onc patients in North Georgia and sees referrals traveling from Alabama and Tennessee.

For the past seven years, SEGO physicians practiced primarily at other area hospitals. Recently, the SEGO partners decided to become employees of Saint Joseph’s Medical Group. For several lead SEGO surgeons this is a return to Saint Joseph’s, where they were originally active members of the medical staff.

“Saint Joseph’s commitment to excellence and charity care were a perfect match for our group” says Gerry Feuer, M.D., SEGO partner.  “Robotics is the new, gold standard treatment for endometrial cancer, so Saint Joseph’s, with its advanced robotics reputation, is the natural partner for us.”

This transition will allow for greater patient care and convenience while providing Georgians with more treatment and location options plus access to Saint Joseph’s. The practice includes seven gynecological oncologists, two urogynecologists, and more than 130 employees.

Saint Joseph’s Medical Group is a clinically integrated practice whose goal is to provide excellent, compassionate health care in the spirit of loving service to those in need. Saint Joseph’s is the only hospital in Georgia to be ranked among the country’s Top 50 Hospitals and is Atlanta’s only hospital recognized for superior nursing care by the American Nursing Association.
