City of Atlanta Hosts Health Talk on Fibroids

Over two hundred City of Atlanta employees took time out their busy schedules to attend a health talk on fibroids, sponsored by The Center for Image Guided Medicine at Emory Adventist Hospital. Medical Director and UFE and Fibroid expert Dr. John Lipman addressed the crowd and answered questions from the audience. Many women were stunned to learn that fibroids are the most common reason why women have a hysterectomy.














The health talk was also broadcast on the City's cable channel ATL 26.

The White Pants Social


Don’t be surprised by the rising number of women wearing white pants after Labor Day. It’s not really a fashion statement. It’s a symbol of freedom, freedom from uterine fibroids.

The white pants movement was founded by UFE and Fibroid Expert Dr. John Lipman as a way to help women reclaim their health by becoming free from fibroids.

There is a movement sweeping Atlanta and if you listen closely, you’ll hear it, you feel it and you see it. You’ll see women all over Metro Atlanta wearing white pants any time of the month. They are free, free from fibroids. These women are making a statement, and it isn’t about fashion. It’s a statement about freedom. 

Over a hundred women converged on Paschal's Restaurant, October 19th for the White Pants Social. The event was hosted by V103 personalities, including morning show host Wanda Smith. Ramona Debreaux and Sytonnia Moore also took on hosting duties. 

Dr. John Lipman addressed the crowd and fielded questions on UFE and Fibroids. The night was fun, yet educational!!!

For Sisters Only, an expo sponsored by Atlanta's number one radio station V103, was a huge success.  Many women stopped by the Got Fibroids booth to share their stories about living with uterine fibroids. Some of the visitors to the Got Fibroids booth had already had a UFE (Uterine Fibroid Embolization) procedure and they talked about the impact the procedure has had on their lives. They also stopped by to learn more about UFE, the non surgical treatment for uterine fibroids.

Congressman David Scott's Health Fair Draws Hundreds!!!!

The fibroid team headed south to Jonesboro for Congressman David Scott's Annual Health Fair at Mundy's Mill High School on Fayetteville Road. The health fair attracted hundreds of community residents and dozens of vendors from all over Metro Atlanta. The fibroids team was a popular attraction as usual. It was incredible to see the looks on women's faces when they heard the news their fibroids could be treated non-surgically with  UFE, Uterine Fibroid Embolization.











Kiss 104.1's Charles Mitchell also entertained the crowd!!!

All Around Town!!!!

The Fibroids Team is making stops all around the Metro Atlanta area to educate women on UFE, a non surgical option for the treatment of fibroids. Most women I talk to are surprised to learn that UFE or uterine fibroid embolization only takes 45 minutes and the patient goes home with just a band aid. A band aid? Yes, a band aid. The patient is also back to work in about a week.

The Fibroid Team, led by Marjorie Coley visited Delta Airlines, the Internal Revenue Service, Fulton County DFACS and Word of Faith in East Point.We also joined AmeriGroup for a back to school/health fair at the Walmart on Gresham Road. Despite the rain, 400 people participated in the event. V103 Radio was also on hand to entertain the crowd. 

UFE and Fibroid Expert, Dr. John Lipman conducted a community health at New Covenant Christian Ministries this past Saturday. To book an event at your church, email Marjorie Coley at.marjorie@atlantafibroidclinic.com. See all the photos below.
