Dr. Jackie Walters In Her Role of A Lifetime

Dr. Jackie Walters graduated medical school at the University of Mississippi, Dr. Walters completed her residency at Mercer University in Macon. Dr. Walters realized early that the field of OB/GYN had paid little attention to the population it was meant to serve which are women.  As a gynecologist in training, she was concerned with what she considered to be a lack of personal care and consideration for the gynecology patient. This was partially due to the fact that, until quite recently, the majority of the OB/GYNs serving women were men.

Dr. Jackie Walters is a  two-time breast cancer survivor.  Dr. Walters has placed that same personal care and consideration towards women who have been diagnosed with breast cancer. She founded 50 Shades of Pink Foundation, which pays tribute to women and their family after being diagnosed with cancer. Dr. Jackie Walters is a wife, mom, Owner of CW OB/GYN & WOW Aesthetics Medical Spa in Atlanta,Ga.  Also, a cast member of Bravo’s Married to Medicine as Dr. Jackie Walters.
