The Gynecologic Cancer Foundation (GCF) is the foundation of the Society of Gynecologic Oncologists (SGO). GCF’s mission, in concert with SGO, is to support research, education and public awareness of gynecologic cancer
prevention, early diagnosis and optimal treatment.

GCF is proud to introduce the
Gynecologic
Oncologist Awareness Campaign. Recently accumulated
research shows that women diagnosed with a reproductive
cancer, especially ovarian and uterine (endometrial) cancers,
experience improved outcomes when treated first by a
gynecologic oncologist. Gynecologic oncologists are
physicians specially trained to provide comprehensive
treatment of women with cancer. Please call
800.444.4441 or visit the
Women's
Cancer Network to find a gynecologic
oncologist near you.
