Today, on National Rainbow Baby Day, we honor the powerful journey of families who, after enduring pregnancy or infant loss, have brought a precious rainbow of hope into the world.

A “rainbow baby” is a child born following a miscarriage, stillbirth, ectopic pregnancy, or infant loss—symbolizing hope and healing after a dark storm.

At EGWC, we understand how emotional this journey can be. Rainbow pregnancies often bring a mix of feelings—joy, anxiety, grief, and renewed hope.
We are privileged to support you through every step—emotionally, medically, and compassionately.

✨ Meet Our Amazing Nurse Practitioners!✨ Yes, both of our Nurse Practitioners are named Jessica… so when you say, “Thanks Jessica!” you’re guaranteed to be right. 😄💜

You’ll often see our Nurse Practitioners (NPs) caring for patients in the office — but what exactly is a Nurse Practitioner?

👩‍⚕️ A Nurse Practitioner is a highly trained, advanced practice provider who:
✅ Has completed graduate-level education and specialized training
✅ Can diagnose, treat, and manage many health conditions
✅ Provides routine exams, preventive and prenatal care, and patient education
✅ Works closely with our physician to ensure you receive the very best treatment!

We are so thankful for our wonderful NPs who combine medical expertise with a compassionate approach, making sure every patient feels supported and heard. 💜
📸 Here are the friendly faces you may see at your next visit!

👩‍⚕️ When to Call After a Self-Breast Exam 👩‍⚕️

Doing regular self-breast exams helps you stay familiar with what’s normal for your body. But if you notice something that doesn’t feel right, it’s always better to check in.

Call us if you find:
✅ A new lump or thickened area
✅ Changes in the size or shape of your breast
✅ Dimpling, puckering, or changes in the skin
✅ Ni**le changes (inversion, discharge, or rash)
✅ Swelling, redness, or pain that doesn’t go away

Most breast changes are not cancer, but it’s important to have them evaluated. Early detection saves lives—if something feels off, trust your instincts and give us a call. 💗

It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of nurse Sandra’s beloved mother. Mrs. Katherine was a cherished part of our extended work family and we know her loss is deeply felt.
Please join us in keeping Sandra and her family in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
We ask that you hold them close in your hearts as they navigate their grief.

💙 With love and sympathy from all of us at EGWC

We love supporting our local sports programs! 🏈📣 Dr. Palmer was all smiles posing with this talented cheerleader… but let’s just say he refused to be a team player when we suggested he try a split 🙄🤷‍♀️😂
