Introducing Affinity Physicians for Women
Tift Regional Health System (TRHS) announced that a new obstetrics and gynecology practice affiliated with Affinity Clinic will be opening on Sept. 8 in Tifton. Shannon Price, M.D., who has practiced in Albany in recent years, will now provide care at a new clinic called Affinity Physicians for Women and will deliver babies and perform gynecologic surgery procedures at Tift Regional Medical Center. The new practice is located in Tifton at 39 Kent Road, Suite 1. Patients are now being accepted and appointments can be made by calling 229-391-4130.
Board-certified in obstetrics/gynecology (OB/GYN), Dr. Price is available to provide women a comprehensive range of health services. This includes pregnancy care plans and deliveries for expectant mothers; gynecologic surgery; wellness checks; infertility evaluation; treatment for menstrual disorders; menopausal management; and, health and wellness education.
“I’m excited for this opportunity to join the Tifton medical community,” said Dr. Price. “I will continue to serve my established patients from the region and also look forward to meeting new patients who are seeking an OB/GYN provider.”
Originally from the Tallahassee area, Dr. Price earned her medical degree from Florida State University and completed residency training in OB/GYN at Greenville Health System in Greenville, SC. She practiced with North Florida Women’s Care in Perry, Fla. and most recently with Southwest Georgia Obstetrics and Gynecology in Albany.
“There are many conditions and diseases with greater prevalence in women versus men or that affect women differently than men,” said Dr. Price. “This is what inspired me to become an OB/GYN. Understanding the unique healthcare needs of females - at every stage of life - became my passion so I could one day advance the health and vitality of women.”
Affinity Physicians for Women is a part of Tift Regional Physician Group. For more information, call 229-391-4130.
