St. John's Health has added a new full-time OB/GYN to its staff as part of a broader push to improve access to women's healthcare in Jackson. Dr. Natalie Meadows-Eggleston is now seeing patients, bringing a focus on the partnership between doctor and patient.

According to the hospital, effective OB/GYN care depends on a strong working relationship. Dr. Meadows-Eggleston's approach centers on open communication and shared decision-making. She believes that when patients feel heard and involved, outcomes improve. This philosophy aligns with St. John's ongoing effort to expand services and reduce wait times for gynecological and obstetric care in the region.

The addition of Dr. Meadows-Eggleston is expected to help meet growing demand. Jackson has seen an increasing need for comprehensive women's health services, and the hospital has been working to recruit specialists. By emphasizing a collaborative model, St. John's aims to provide care that is both medically sound and responsive to individual patient needs. Dr. Meadows-Eggleston is now accepting new patients.
