New Doctor Joins University Gynecologic Oncology

From University Gynecologic Oncology:

University Gynecologic Oncology (UGO), a world leader in the treatment of female reproductive cancer, announced the addition of Dr. Meaghan Tenney.

“Dr. Tenney is an expert in treating gynecologic cancers and she’s highly skilled in minimally invasive techniques and patient-centered care,” said Dr. Benedict Benigno, president of UGO. “Her friendly, compassionate and supportive care is a strong addition to our talented team of world-class physicians.”

Dr. Tenney specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of women with gynecologic cancers and pre-invasive diseases of the lower genital tract. Dr. Tenney is also experienced in minimally invasive and robotic surgery on the morbidly obese and medically complicated patients.

Her clinical interests also include sentinel lymph node dissection, rare gynecologic tumors, fertility preservation for young women, complex surgery for gynecologic malignancies, clinical trials, palliative care, and pre-invasive diseases/dysplasia of the cervix, vagina and vulva

“The symptoms of GYN cancers can be challenging to diagnose,” said Dr. Tenney. “They often appear similar to non-cancerous conditions. We work closely with patients and referring physicians to individualize treatment plans and we incorporate minimally invasive techniques, research and clinical trials.”

A University of Miami Miller School of Medicine graduate, Dr. Tenney completed her residency in obstetrics and gynecology at Baylor college of Medicine and her fellowship in gynecologic oncology at the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center. Prior to joining UGO, Dr. Tenney was an Assistant Professor at The University of Chicago where she was principal investigator on numerous clinical trials and the Chair of Quality and Patient Safety for the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology. She is a member of several professional organizations and societies and her work has been widely published.
