Erin George, MD
Program: Gynecologic Oncology
Overview
Cancer Focus: Cervical Cancer, Endometrial (Uterine) Cancer, Ovarian Cancer, Vaginal Cancer, Vulvar Cancer Dr. George received her MD from Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons, New York. She completed a Residency in Obstetrics and Gynecology at New York Presbyterian Hospital – Columbia University and a Fellowship in Gynecologic Oncology at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania (Penn). Dr. George joins us from Penn, where she continued after her fellowship as a physician-scientist with a research interest in developing novel targeted therapeutics for ovarian and endometrial cancer. There she held the rank of Assistant Professor and also served women veterans with gynecologic cancers as an Attending at the Corporal Michael J Crescenz Veteran Affairs Medical Center in Philadelphia.Now here at Moffitt, the overarching goal of the George lab is to identify novel targets and strategies to overcome drug resistance in ovarian and endometrial cancers. Dr. George is expanding a preclinical drug development platform, which includes primary tumor cell cultures and orthotopic patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models developed from patients’ tumors collected at the time of their surgery. These models will facilitate the translation of new treatment options from bench to bedside. The ultimate goal of the lab is to bring therapies with strong preclinical evidence to patients via phase I/II clinical trials. Dr. George’s clinical interests are in identifying and treating patients with a genetic predisposition for gynecologic cancers as well as in the mutations and genomic alterations that drive disease progression. Additionally, she is interested in minimally invasive laparoscopic and robotic surgery, fertility-sparing surgical techniques, and the surgical management of advanced gynecologic malignancies.

The Provider Rating is an average of all responses to specific care provider-related questions from our nationally-recognized Press Ganey Patient Satisfaction Survey. These surveys assess the experience of our patients when visiting us for an Outpatient Clinic, Urgent Care or Virtual Health (Telemedicine) visit. Responses are measured on a scale of 1 to 5 with 5 being the best score.
Patients that are treated in outpatient or hospital environments may receive different surveys, and the volume of responses will vary by question. Comments ()Comments are gathered from specific care provider-related questions from our Patient Satisfaction Survey . The comments are submitted by patients and reflect their views and opinions. Patients are de-identified for confidentiality and patient privacy. We post both positive and negative comments from the surveys. We do not post comments that are libelous, slanderous, profane, irrelevant or otherwise inappropriate or may risk the privacy of our patients. A “[…]” in the comments below indicates de-identified patient information or comments that are unrelated to the patient’s experience with the visit to the provider, such as comments related to another provider, about the survey itself, or otherwise completely off-topic. Not all providers will have a star rating or comments. In order to ensure accuracy of our ratings, we only display ratings for providers who have a minimum of 30 completed from the previous 12 months.
