'Medical Mondays' to begin at Carnegie

Monday will mark the first presentation of "Medical Mondays" at the Carnegie, sponsored by the Newnan Carnegie Library Foundation.

The featured speaker will be Dr. Heather Turner, OB/GYN of the Summit in Newnan. She will outline the latest medical breakthroughs with emphasis on bone health.

A question-and-answer session will follow and topics of future interest will also be discussed. The Nov. 9 lunch and learn program will run from noon until 1, with doors opening at 11:30 a.m.

Patrons are encouraged to bring a lunch or purchase a $5 box to go from participating restaurants downtown. Drinks and sweets will be provided by the NCLF. For further information, contact Carol at 770-251-5723 or nclf@numail.org.

A board certified physician, Turner graduated with honors from the University of Alabama School of Medicine and received the Scholastic Achievement Award, the Dean's Award, and the Janet Glasgow Memorial Citation awarded to women graduates in the top 10 percent of their class. She completed her residency in Obstetrics and Gynecology at the University of Alabama at Birmingham and was recognized for her contributions to medical student education. She is a Fellow of the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology and practices with Southern Crescent Women's Healthcare at the Summit Medical Complex in Newnan.

Turner balances her practice with her family life with husband, Les, and their two children. She is a volunteer with the March of Dimes and Coweta Community Food Pantry and active in several ministries with St. Paul's Episcopal Church in Newnan.
