Women's Wellness Clinic

Women who have undergone treatment for a gynecological cancer or breast cancer find themselves in a period of transition and a new stage of life. Some cancer survivors will slowly begin to experience their survivorship as the "new normal." Patients now begin a life-long journey as cancer survivors, which will include ongoing medical care of their physical and emotional health needs.

The Women’s Wellness Clinic offers wellness-focused follow-up care for women who have completed cancer treatment for a breast or gynecological cancer. Part of the Women's Center on the third floor of the SCCA clinic, the Women's Wellness Clinic was the brainchild of Dr. Julie Gralow, a UW Medicine medical oncologist who sees patients at SCCA. Many of her long-term follow-up patients are taking advantage of the services offered by this clinic.

Women come to the Wellness Clinic when it’s time to shift their focus from cancer treatment to recovery. They want a Wellness Plan that includes good nutrition, improved fitness, and emotional support.

You are one of these women if you:

Want to focus on cancer prevention—to do everything you can to keep your cancer from coming back.
Need help in dealing with some of the lingering side effects of cancer treatment, such as lymphedema, anxiety, or depression.

The Women’s Wellness Clinic offers the care and services you need without leaving the medical supervision of the oncologists you know and trust. Routine checkups, including mammograms, Pap smears, and various scans, are an important part of taking care of yourself after cancer, and all provided at the Women’s Wellness Center.

To make an appointment, call (206) 288-1205.
