Women From All Over Seek GYN Care at Cherokee Women's Health

World-Class-Surgeons-with-Globe

The 3 Main Reasons Women Visited Cherokee Women's Health Rather Than Seeing Their Local Doctor:

1. Unusual Expertise
Cherokee Women’s offers the best care for urinary incontinence and pelvic prolapse, with three (3) physicians who are double board-certified in OB/GYN and the subspecialty FPMRS (Female Pelvic Medicine and Reconstructive Surgery, also known as urogynecology).
2. Local Doctors Have Not Been Helpful
Women often have had surgery performed by their local physician, without good results. Pelvic prolapse that continues to be uncomfortable even after surgery, botched labiaplasties, and unsuccessful bladder repairs: these are common issues that affect women, and why they seek relief from the physicians at Cherokee Women’s Health.

“This is the best women’s health office I have ever been to and I work in the women’s health care field so that’s saying a lot. I drove from middle Tennessee and I would happily do it again.”

Debra S.

3. Personal Relationships

Given the sensitive nature of obstetrics and gynecology, a strong bond is often formed between the patient and physician, as a physician may see a patient from her teens, through her child-bearing years, and all the way into and throughout her menopausal years. Personal relationships with patients are very important to the physicians and staff at Cherokee Women’s Health.

Patient Testimonials

Obstetrics

  • "I love everyone I have had the pleasure of meeting with! The staff is very caring and listen to every concern I have. I am epileptic so I also have a neurologist and specialist to see and they've been excellent in communicating with my other doctors. I am very happy with everything they've done for me and very happy with my decision in choosing them for this special time in my life. Can't wait to meet my baby!"
    Amanda W.
  • "Dr. Litrel is truly the greatest OB. When I found out I was having identical twins at my first OB appointment he eased my mind and assured me things would be okay since I had had a miscarriage two months prior to becoming pregnant with my twins. On March 7, 2014, Dr. Litrel delivered my two healthy twin boys! I highly recommend him to anyone!"
    Camille C.
  • "Pregnant with my third child, I found myself in search for a new OB/GYN after my former doctor changed his focus and is no longer practicing OB/GYN. I remembered how well Dr. Litrel took care of my sister-in-law 8 years ago when he delivered my niece. My decision to have Dr. Litrel as my OB/GYN was obvious and I am very pleased with this decision. My former doctor was a sole practitioner so I was a little hesitant about being a part of a practice, but Dr. Litrel does not make me feel like a number, he shows he truly cares, which makes my 45 minute drive worth it! The staff and other doctors I have met are just as wonderful! I am very grateful God led me to this office. Thank you for all you do!"
    Rachel B.
  • "I first came to Cherokee Women's with a GYN issue which Dr. Litrel helped me resolve very easily. When I became pregnant with my first child, it was an obvious choice that I would return to Cherokee Women's. Dr. Litrel and his staff were wonderful. I wanted my birth experience to be as natural as possible and all of the providers worked with me to provide this. They were respectful of what I wanted, but also expert with their care. It was a wonderful combination. (Separately, I was also thrilled with Northside Cherokee - a small hospital with amazing patient care in their labor and delivery section. Comfy rooms, too!) I returned for care with my second pregnancy. Again, the doctors were excellent and respectful of how I wanted my delivery to be. When my labor stalled, Dr. Litrel took me in for a C-Section. This likely saved my newborn's life as she had a complete knot in her umbilical cord that was undetected. I am SO grateful for Dr. Litrel's excellent skill. Excellent office, excellent physicians!"
    Karen M.
  • "I just wanted to say thank you to Susan Griggs for delivering my sweet baby girl yesterday!!! You did a great job Susan!! Thank you for everything!! And thank you to Cherokee Women’s for taking care of me while I was pregnant!"
    Amber M.
  • "Dr. Gandhi has been with me through the beginning when I was first trying to get pregnant. I knew it was a perfect fit and couldn't imagine anyone else delivering my baby. She is so comforting, intelligent, and explains everything to where I understand and feet at ease. I plan to have her deliver any future babies I may have. I'd highly recommend her and the staff here to all my friends and family. I've had such a great experience."
    Jennifer David Ford
  • "Being pregnant can be an exciting, but scary time in your life. Was that a kick? Should I have this much heartburn?The questions can be endless. The staff at Cherokee Women’s Health have been wonderful during my pregnancy! They are always helpful in providing advice and answers to questions. They have a knack for making you feel comfortable and completely at ease during your visits. A friend recommended Cherokee Women’s to me when I first thought I might be pregnant, and after my wonderful experience I would definitely recommend them, too."
    Elizabeth H.
  • "I've been doing to Dr. Gandhi for five years now. Dr. Gandhi is not just my doctor, but also my friend! She makes uncomfortable visits pleasant as her demeanor is so relaxed. I feel like Dr. Gandhi knows everything about me! I highly recommend her to my friends! Dr. Gandhi eased my fears about not being able to get pregnant, and carefully guided me through a fertility process. I was so fortunate to have had Dr. Gandhi by my side as she then guided me throughout my pregnancy! Dr. Gandhi is so caring, and comforting to see."
    Jennifer V.
  • "Dr. Litrel did both of my C-sections for my little girls and I couldn't have been happier to have him for my doctor! Both cesareans went wonderful and I am so glad I was able to have such a great surgeon!"

    Jamie B.
  • “The receptionists were pleasant. Wait time was minimal before I got called back by Jourdan, the sweetest M.A. I've had the pleasure of dealing with so far. While back with the staff I had the most pleasant experience. Jourdan and Dr. Gandhi were so sweet, helpful and informative. The two of them made my day. I can't tell you how much I appreciate them. I didn't feel rushed at all. I felt cared for and like my baby was their number one priority.”

    Jennifer H.
  • "Dr. Gandhi and her staff are concerned women who listen to you carefully to determine the best treatment option for you. She skillfully delivered two of my children after very difficult pregnancies. Throughout my pregnancies, she kept a very close eye on me and determined the need for a perinatologist in order to provide the best care for me and the baby. She took the time to understand the health issues that I was having and found ways to prevent further issues. Even after delivery she was a concerned and involved doctor. Dr. Gandhi is a real jewel, and a doctor who has her heart in what she does."
    Lydia Laucella
  • "Cherokee Women’s Health Specialists is an excellent OB-GYN practice. I know my baby and I are in good hands."
    Kaitlin S.
  • "First of all, the staff here at Cherokee Women's are friendly, knowledgeable, and patient with you. I love Dr. Gandhi. She is awesome! From my first pregnancy, and through my second, she has been nothing but a sweetheart. I love the fact that she is totally honest with me about everything that concerns me and my baby. She is so caring, and concerned with her patient's well being, and I love that about her. Even if there is something I may not want to hear, she will always tell me the truth. I feel so comfortable with her as my doctor."
    Ebony McGowan
  • "I had a repeat C-section performed by Dr. Gandhi and my baby is doing great! I'm still a little sore but getting better every day. I had a really good experience."
    Andrea R.
  • "I love it here. Jodi always makes me feel welcome as soon as I walk in, my doctors I see are great, and I can get in whenever I need to. Thanks everyone at Cherokee Women's Health for getting me through my pregnancy and getting Jace here safe and sound, even with all my little complications. :)"
    Jessica G.
  • "Dr. Gandhi serviced my prenatal appointments, and I thoroughly appreciated how she listened to me and my body. Nothing unnatural was forced, which I believe helped for a very smooth delivery. She was always very upbeat and her excitement bubbled over. By the end of each visit, I was always smiling. Susan, the midwife, delivered my baby, and she did a wonderful job. She was very comforting and soothing. Again, I appreciate how she let my body naturally deliver the baby it its own time. This was a wonderful pregnancy and birthing experience."
    Billi Roush
  • "In June of 2011, I was rushed to Northside Hospital in Canton in severe pain only to find I had a ruptured tubal pregnancy. My family and I were so devastated. Dr. Litrel of Cherokee Women's Health came to my bedside and prayed with us, and then I was rushed to the operating room for surgery. He was so wonderful, kind, and had the best bedside manner. It’s February of 2012, and we are expecting again. Everyone in the office is so kind and respectful. I wouldn’t have any other group of doctors take care of me in our situation, and couldn’t imagine any other doctor bringing our miracle baby into this world."
    Kimberly L.
  • "Throughout my pregnancy I pretty much met all the doctors and the midwife. I love all of them, including midwife Susan (who is an angel of mercy by the way, lol)! I will never go to any other OB-GYN practice! All of you guys are AWESOME!"
    Carolyn L. 
  • “I had the best experience. I was welcomed as a new client and they did everything to make sure they received the medical records from my previous doctor so they could give me the best care. They did an outstanding job and I can't thank them enough. I never felt so comfortable at a doctor’s office. They made sure that I was comfortable and understood the rest of the process of my pregnancy. I look forward to my next appointment.”
    Mariah L.
  • "Cherokee Women's is a great practice! Dr. Gandhi and Dr. Litrel have been wonderful to me during this pregnancy. The staff is very friendly and I can always call if I have any questions or concerns about my health. I am very happy to have such good care for my first pregnancy and birth!"

I just want to take a moment to let you all know how much you mean to us – you’re not just a doctor’s office – we have built bonds. I’d like share just a few personal experiences over this pregnancy. I’d like to thank Susan for the big hug when I came in miserable and was ready to give up. And the amazing staff for always calling me back and for being so kind, and thanks to Jenny for knowing who I am when I call, and for working with a difficult schedule. Thank you all!"
    Mooney Family
  • "Jodi, who's with the office staff, was very helpful every visit. She made sure I understood everything that was going on, which was very helpful since this was my first pregnancy. She’s very kind and understanding, and takes her time to make sure she’s answered all questions."

  • "Cherokee Women’s Health Specialists has given me an amazing experience throughout my pregnancy. They were always so kind, and answered all my questions.

I will definitely return and tell me friends to come too."
     Kelly D.
  • "As a new resident of Cherokee County, I was apprehensive about finding a new doctor. Everyone at Cherokee Women’s Health has been very kind and welcoming – reception staff, nurses, midwives, and doctors. They have helped guide me through my pregnancy - the scary parts, and the happy parts."
    Cara M.
  • "When I went through an ectopic pregnancy, my doctor gave me her personal cell number, and she would call and check on me. I have never had a doctor be so compassionate about what I was going through. And of course, the staff rocks!"
    Erica M.
  • "Thank you to everyone at Cherokee Women’s for all you have done for me and my growing family. Susan Griggs is my favorite midwife. She is highly recommended, and the office is very friendly. They have carried me through my 4th pregnancy, and now my 5th. Wouldn’t go anywhere else."
    Kathy V.
  • “I absolutely love this practice! The care and concern they show towards my cysts and abdominal pain is exactly what I wanted and what I wasn’t receiving from my last OB-GYN who I had been seeing for eleven years and who delivered all three of my children. This office is the change I needed when it comes to my healthcare.”
    Jacquelyn T.
  • "All the doctors and midwives are awesome and Jodi is just the sweetest lady. I always try to refer people here. Also, Angel Bobo is awesome. We love that Cherokee Women’s could help bring our children into the world. The doctors really care about their patients, and you can’t say that about every doctor in this world."
    Amber L.
  • "I have always had friendly experiences. My doctors have always taken the time to discuss and/or explain any questions that I might have. Dr. Cross delivered my first child in 1995, and Dr. Lapaquette delivered my second in 1999. I have never had a bad experience in all these years."
    Christy W.

    Christie W.
  • "Dr. Gandhi delivered my sister-in-law and close friend. I was able to go into the C-section room with my brother and sister-in-law, and I was so impressed with the care they received that I switched from a doctor in Kennesaw to Cherokee Women’s Health."
  • "You guys are amazing! The hospital staff was great and my doctor was wonderful. I had a repeat C-section and it was a great experience."

  • “My doctor and the staff at Northside Hospital Cherokee did a wonderful job bringing our granddaughter Harper into this world today!!! Thank you for everything!”
    Janet K.
  • "My granddaughter uses Cherokee Women's for her obstetrical care. She recommended that I see someone at Cherokee Women's because I was so unhappy with where I had been previously. I started doing some research, not on the computer, but by word off mouth, which was easy for me because I work with the public. All the feedback I received was positive so I made my appointment. When I walked through the door of your office - and you can call it whatever you choose, but I will call it divine intervention - I knew, even before I was seen, that I was in the right place. I saw Dr. James Haley. He LISTENED to me, he was COMPASSIONATE, he WENT OUT OF HIS WAY to ACCOMMODATE my needs, and the PROFESSIONALISM of the entire staff was outstanding. I appreciate a doctor being up front and honest with me, while showing respect for me as a person, and Dr. James Haley did that."
    Shirley W.
  • "The experience I had with Dr. Haley and Dr. Litrel was by far the most amazing experience ever! They made my labor and delivery super laid back and really easy. I would definitely use them for our future babies! They made delivery so amazing for me that I look back and wish that I could do that part all over again. How many woman can say they want to give birth over and over again? I can honestly say that I would, thanks to Dr. Haley and Dr. Litrel!"
    Brittany Anne H.
  • "I have been a patient of Cherokee Women’s since 2008. I am so happy with everything here. Not only did my doctor save my life and that of my son, but we are now both happy and very healthy.

    A. Mcnamara

    Jessica C.
  • “Every staff member I encounter treats me with care and respect. From the awesome ladies at the front, the ultrasound technician, Nurse Ruth to all the doctors at this practice. I will forever be grateful for my doctor's attentiveness and honesty with me about my state during the last weeks of pregnancy which lead to an emergency C-section that saved me and my daughter’s life. My doctor has such a kind spirit. I saw him the most throughout my pregnancy. He made me feel comfortable and took in consideration all my concerns and fears. Everyone at Northside Hospital Cherokee had great things to say about Cherokee Women's and shared how much they love working with them. I couldn’t have asked for a better doctor to deliver my daughter into this world. And to top it off, my doctor's skills are so amazing because my C-section incision is barely noticeable. Another win for this practice. Thank you, Cherokee Women’s Health for proving such great care. I will recommend this practice to all my family and friends. God Bless you all!”

    Tabatha B.
  • “Dr. Gandhi is just amazing! Can’t say enough positive things about her. She’s knowledgeable and has a great bedside manner. She delivered my son three years ago and I’ll always come back to her. Was so happy this year when I found out our new insurance was accepted by her.”
    Rachel B.
  • “I love my doctor! He delivered our two girls and will be delivering our baby boy very soon. He is always very attentive and is such a kind physician. In addition to our experience with him, we have always been very pleased with the other providers and Cherokee Women’s Health in general!”

Gynecology & Annual Exams

  • "It was a crazy busy day for them and the staff handled it really well. Dr Clay was great! It is hard to find doctors who are personable and not in a rush to shove you along. The lab tech was very skilled and friendly. The front desk lady was really nice too. Smiled. The only thing I didn't like was my weight when I stepped on the scale (perhaps the scale is broken). ha! 🙂
    Jami B.
  • "This is the best women’s health office I have ever been to and I work in the women’s health care field so that’s saying a lot. Dr. Litrel is the best. I drove from middle Tennessee and I would happily do it again."

He put me at complete ease to the point where I was joking with him and the nurse. He has a great sense of humor and a wonderful bedside manner! I give 5 stars!!! I highly recommend this clinic!!"
    Jodie
  • "I had an Essure procedure (permanent birth control) done by Dr. Haley and everything went great! I expected some cramping and pain but other than a little spotting, I don't feel like I've had anything done. Everyone at Cherokee Women's was great! Thank you for everything!"
    Jamie K.
  • “I went to Cherokee Women’s for my first GYN appointment and had a huge panic attack. I was sexually assaulted when I was younger and was very scared of having someone be in my space. My doctor completely understood and we made an appointment for a few months later when I had more time to be comfortable with the idea of someone near my private areas. I really respect and appreciate my doctor as well as the medical assistant who helped me.”
    Gabrielle W.
  • “Cherokee Women's Health is one in a million! For the first time in years, I felt like a doctor listened to my concerns, took them to heart, and treated me with the best course of action. I was so relieved and excited I nearly walked out without my keys. This practice is truly a blessing.”
    Malorie H.

    Chundra K.
  • “I just love Dr. Gandhi!! She is never in a rush and takes the time to answer all my questions. At my last provider, I felt because I was no longer going to have children that my appointment and concerns were not of importance. With Dr. Gandhi, I feel as if I am with one of my friends.”

  • "I have never been to a more caring, competent doctor. Dr. Gandhi is the only OB/GYN that has ever sat down with me prior to exam and talked to me. She then explained my concerns.

I've known Dr. Litrel for more than a dozen years and have friends and colleagues who have been his patient, so when I was searching for a new physician, I turned to Cherokee Women's Health Specialists. The new patient portal was phenomenal. Usually when you visit the doctor's office, you have a list of questions written down or memorized, then either forget the list or are too nervous or overwhelmed to ask. The online form contained prompts that allowed me to enter my history - and any questions or concerns I had - then someone actually called me back to discuss it prior to my appointment! In dealing with Dr. Litrel and Dr. Gandhi, I have found all three to be personable and approachable while being extraordinarily professional. I highly recommend this practice!"

GYN Problems

  • "Dr. Haley has been my saving grace. I have always been in so much pain ever since becoming a woman and thought it was normal.

My pain is darn near nonexistent thanks to Dr. Haley. And to the whole staff, you are all so sweet and caring and try to know everyone by name. I love that.

    Abigail B.
  • LETTER TO DR. HALEY: "Dr. Haley, I wanted to thank you for your time and commitment to my issues over the years with my case. I know I am a difficult one, but you have never let me down. You are always able to help me during times for me that are dark, and seem to only have dead ends. You answer my questions and validate what I am going through, and during this particular season of suffering, that means a lot. There are so many providers out there who would have (and have) thrown in the towel. I am grateful to have the confidence to explain issues like this with full discretion and candor. I am and will be thanking God for that as often as I can. I know you've been doing this for a long time — to see issues come up time and time again, yet handle each with a personal approach — I can only imagine is very difficult. You make it look easy. I appreciate you continuing to put on the hat and gloves when I walk in — and not address me or my case as "one-size fits all". Take care.

  • "I recommend Cherokee Women's Health Specialists to anyone seeking outstanding medical care. When I became a patient of Cherokee Women's, I was very frustrated because I had been to several physicians seeking a diagnosis for my symptoms and complaints. Several of my friends recommended Cherokee Women's Health Specialists to me and I decided to seek yet another opinion. I felt very comfortable during my initial office visit, and truly appreciated the amount of time taken with me. I can honestly say that I am feeling so much better, and the best part is the peace of mind that I now have. I have the utmost respect for Dr. Litrel, and will always be grateful for their genuine concern for me. We are very fortunate to have this exceptional group of physicians in our community dedicated to women's health and wellness."

  • "I have been a patient at Cherokee Women's Health for over 10 years. I have recommended both Dr. Gandhi and Dr. Litrel to all of my friends. I did this because I am 100% thrilled with not only the medical I care I received, but also the level of professionalism and courtesy at the office. I feel like they take the time to listen to all that is going on in my life and treat me like a friend. They're not the kind of doctors to just give you a pill and tell you to come back in two months. For both my problem visits, they really took the time to research and look into it and diagnose me correctly. I have highly recommended this practice to my friends, and I always hear that they recommend Dr. Litrel and Dr. Gandhi to their friends as well. I was just at the tennis courts the other day and one of my teammates was talking about how she went to three different doctors, until Dr. Litrel correctly diagnosed what was going on with her. I feel blessed that he has been my doctor. If you want to be treated with care and honesty, this is the place. I am so grateful to have found them."
    Linda A.
  • "Dr Litrel is always very caring and considerate. He listens to your symptoms without making you feel like he’s in a hurry to move on to the next patient. He has offered alternative help with my Sjogren’s Syndrome Disorder. He treats you with respect."
    Sue H.
  • Dr. Litrel is the bomb! He and his staff have helped change my life considerably. I had the hydrothermal blast which completely alleviated my constant bleeding and clotting. Dr. Litrel also found a huge cyst on my uterus, and has been monitoring it closely. I highly recommend Dr. Litrel and the wonderful staff!"
    Roxanne W.
  • "I wanted to thank Dr. Litrel for saving me. Not only are you an extraordinary doctor, you are an extraordinary human being. You are such a caring doctor and your staff is amazing.

    Rose M.
  • “Dr. Litrel is absolutely and by FAR my most favorite doctor and staff out of all of my other doctors or dentists. He is the most caring, personable, knowledgeable, and professional doc, bar none. He has seen me through a couple of procedures that I was apprehensive about and he calmed my nerves and reassured me. In addition, he is personable and a heck of an author! I would recommend him and his practice to anyone. If I could give ten stars I would.”
    Kimberly L.
  • “I highly recommend Dr. Gandhi. She explains everything in depth and has excellent bedside manner. She is professional and compassionate while giving personal care and honestly expressing her concern while doing what is best for the patient. It is difficult to find such a wonderful physician and I’d recommend her to my loved ones. She performed surgery on me and I was comfortable that I was in great hands. I have had minimal discomfort and am extremely pleased with her as a physician.”

Urogynecology

  • "I went to see Dr. Gandhi because I had a posterior prolapse. When I met with her, she explained what rectoceles and cystoceles were and how they are corrected. She also pointed out other issues she noticed. I was glad she did this because if I was going to have surgery, I would like to get it all fixed at one time. She noticed that having four children has put stress on my muscles. She recommended a perineoplasty. She also asked about bladder leakage. She scheduled a bladder study to find out if I needed anything repaired there as well. I ended up having an anterior repair, a posterior repair, a sling, and a perineoplasty. It has been 4 weeks since the surgery. Overall, I've been very satisfied. Dr. Gandhi is very professional, and she obviously cares about her patients. Even today she is willing to answer any questions that I may have. She puts her patients first and really listens to their needs and concerns. I would definitely recommend her to anyone that is considering having any kind of gynecologic or urogynecologic repairs."

Vaginal Rejuvenation

  • "I’ve had multiple issues and I recently had a complicated surgery to repair my vagina. I’ve been super pleased with how I feel and how it looks. Dr. Haley is very professional, extremely knowledgeable and a very kind man. His skills are top-notch."
    Name withheld
  • "I’ve researched vaginal rejuvenation for over 2 years. The first consultation with Dr. Litrel was eye-opening. He is very honest and will not try to just sell you another procedure. I never felt like the consult was hurried or that he wanted to leave for the next patient. I was so indecisive because it was a big decision to make, and I was paranoid. I was even surprised that he gave me a number to text him questions!! Who does that?? After that, I did text him several times and I was also comforted by the other positive reviews I read. FYI, I’m a nurse and completely unaffiliated with his practice. I take care of a lot of patients that come up from postop procedures at a different hospital. I have to say that he’s very detail-oriented and I’m really pleased with my results. I’m 5 weeks postop and I don’t regret it at all. Even the med surgical nurse, who took care of me, told me that though she has never met Dr. Litrel, she knows that he truly looks after all his patients because they all sing praises about him. He was texting me every day for a week since my surgery date just to check in with me and he’s very prompt in all his responses. Don’t hesitate, he’s one of the best doctors I’ve ever met, and you won’t regret it!!"

  • "This has been the best experience I have had with a physician and his team. I've been in nursing for 15 years in multiple fields and he is a first. After two years of searching and I initially decided to go with a physician in ATL but never got far in the process. Then I decided to search again and found Dr. Litrel. I'm sure I read over 50 reviews on him thinking, there is no way he can have so many positive reviews and not be good. I had a hysterectomy and perineoplasty. Dr. Litrel is so thoughtful and kind. He prayed with me and my husband before surgery, which I appreciated. I never have seen a physician give out his number to his patients. His check-in texts always made me smile. It reminds me that I'm not just a number and that he cares. I would recommend him to everyone. Big shout out to his coordinator and his nurse. You ladies rock!!!"

  • "I have been on real self for two years reading about every experience relating to vaginoplasty before I chose to go with Dr. Litrel. I even had the opportunity to interact with his patients who were able to share their outcome and satisfaction years later. I also had numerous consultations with other doctors all of which could not properly address all of my concerns. I'm not sure if it's that Dr. Litrel is both an Ob as well as a urogynecologist making him more qualified and experienced to have such knowledge or if it's because he makes his patient's concerns his priority. The decision to go with him was immediate even though I made the trip from California. Believe me, in no way, is that something I would have previously considered; traveling such a distance for something of this nature but after doing my due diligence I realized this surgery happens only once in a lifetime and it only makes sense to get it done right by the best the very first time. He answered every question with the utmost respect and confidence. His staff and Erica are just amazing people period so to have them help me through this process has been wonderful. During the four years of having three children, I gained a rectal prolapse, my labia became asymmetrical where my left was for some reason bigger than the right, the right was almost non-existent, I felt a fullness in my vagina, and the outside opening looked a lot longer than it previously had. I felt Dr. Litrel takes a holistic approach and does not generalize or standardize your plan of care. He is very open-minded to the patient's concerns and expectations. I am so incredibly happy about how the surgery went. My vagina is adorable. It's small and cute again even with the swelling. His stitching technique is beautiful and I'm just all-around so happy."

  • "I am so very happy to have had Dr. Haley as my surgeon. Sex was OK, but not like it was when I was younger, when I told Dr. Haley what penetration felt like for me he explained that he could fix that also! I really wanted to understand exactly what was going to happen physically to my insides and I asked a lot of questions. The information from his office was very complete, giving me guidance on what to expect after surgery. 8 weeks post-surgery, sexual feeling in the vaginal area has changed: I feel more sensation, more satisfaction. I am 69 and recommend anyone with similar problems let Dr. Haley fix you up! You will be happy you took the time to take care of yourself."

    Ann L.
  • "ThermiVa works, it really does! There is no down time and it is totally worth it. Dr. Litrel was wonderful and explained everything at my first visit. The urinary stress incontinence I was experiencing improved drastically with my very first ThermiVa treatment. I noticed significant improvement in the way things looked as well, which was a nice added bonus. Cherokee Women's staff is awesome. Very caring, concerning and professional! I highly recommend this GYN office."
  • "ThermiVa allowed me to avoid invasive surgery! After my treatment, I had a 95% improvement with the stress incontinence I was experiencing. I also experienced some tightening and an improvement with my physical appearance. Try it! It worked for me!"
  • "You absolutely have to try ThermiVa! It's amazing! It's improved vaginal tightness and sexual relations. My sex life has gotten out of this world awesome! I'll get a sensation in my vagina and start fantasizing about sex and can't get home to my husband soon enough! You will not regret it! Worth every penny!"
  • “Dr. Litrel performed my vaginoplasty and he’s simply amazing! I feel absolutely wonderful and have done nothing but brag about him and his staff. I highly recommend your office. I was expecting more pain and downtime but I feel great! I sit at a desk all day and I’m going to work today. No pain meds for 24 hours. I had contacted another doctor’s office in your area prior to contacting you. I received your email response right away and it just felt right! From the time I first got in contact with your office, things fell into place and went so smoothly! I’ve never experienced this kind of excellent service at any doctor’s office I’ve ever been to. I was treated with such amazing courtesy and respect. I could not be happier with the care I received.”

Cosmetic Services

  • “Bye bye gravity! Voluma did exactly what it claims! It gave me cheekbones that I haven’t seen in years, softened my lines and just made me look BETTER. I love that it’s enough to make you look younger and refreshed but not so much that it’s obvious that you had something done. The entire process took just a few minutes and the results were IMMEDIATE! Literally before the left side of my face was started, I was handed a mirror and I couldn’t believe the difference! Definitely recommend. Thank you so much, Cherokee Women’s!!!”
    Diane
  • "I had had Botox a few times over the years but my last experience with Dysport, a different type that claims to do the same thing, gave me horrible results! It lowered my brows to the point that it not only looked awful (I called myself The Cowardly Lion because it was so heavy-looking!) but it was uncomfortable and FELT heavy. Naturally I was very gun shy about trying anything again but I had decided I was either going to try Botox again or go under the knife because my eyes were looking old! Well I did get Botox and I'm so happy I did! I explained to Dr. Haley my past experience and he really listened and was very careful to inject the Botox exactly where I needed it to give me just the right amount of lift. He even put some around my crow's feet which definitely softened those lines. I'm absolutely thrilled!!! Thanks so much Dr. Haley, you did an awesome job!!"
    Lynn
  • "Juvederm did wonders for softening those nasty marionette lines and nasolabial folds around the mouth. Plumped up those areas for a smoother appearance in my lower face where it was placed - just gave me an overall younger appearance. Oh and it also lifted the corners of my mouth so I don't look like a sad crab anymore! Love it so much that I already told my friend and she just made an appointment! :)"
    Violet
  • "Within 24 hours, I went from having to change my underwear 3x a day and going to the bathroom 20x a day (not an exaggeration), to total normalcy. It's a night and day difference; a total life-changer! I can think of 15 of my girlfriends who would benefit from this procedure!"
    Val
  • "After getting the O-Shot, I felt a significant difference with my level of arousal within 24 hours. I haven’t felt a noticeable difference in my sex drive and arousal with any of the other methods I’ve tried. I would absolutely recommend it to other women looking for a solution to get more enjoyment from sexual intercourse with their partner."

Medical Weight Loss

  • “I’ve lost 27 pounds! I’m in a smaller size and have a ton more energy! The medical weight loss program at Cherokee Women’s Health Specialists has taught me to make better food choices. The beginning of my weight loss journey was not easy but it has been so worth it and has gotten so much easier as I have learned about food and how my body uses food for fuel. I would recommend this program to anyone wanting to make a lifestyle change who wants to lose weight for good!”
    Angie S.
  • “I’ve lost 38 pounds! When I started the program at Cherokee Women’s Health I had already lost 16 pounds but it had taken me over 5 months to lose it and then I hit a plateau. In the last 4-½ months I have lost an additional 38 pounds with their program. Before I started it, I was being fitted for a size 18-20 dress for my sister’s wedding but by the time the wedding came around, I was in a 14-16 and actually had to have it taken in! The program gave me a huge boost. I have more confidence, I’m happier, I feel better, and best of all I have more energy to run around and play with my kids without feeling so tired. I learned how many calories my body actually burns and that every calorie counts. I used to let food control me but now I control the food.  It really puts calories into perspective and this program has given me the tools I need to not only lose the weight but to keep it off!!”
    Wendy K.
  • “I have lost 27 pounds since April 24, 2017 on the weight loss program!! I have so much more energy and have started working out again. I’ve learned that tracking calories is very important and that when you do, you will make healthier food choices. This has been one of the easiest programs I have ever done!”
    Erica D.
  • “I’ve lost 35 pounds and I'm still going! I’ve struggled for many years to lose weight but this past year became an even bigger struggle after I had my baby. I tried many different diet plans but the results never lasted. I knew that if I wanted to keep the weight off, I needed more than a diet plan, I needed a lifestyle change. Not only for me but for my children so I can be able to enjoy life with them. So when I heard that Cherokee Women’s was offering a weight loss program, I immediately made an appointment (they have free consultations, by the way). I signed up and within two months, I lost 35 pounds. I continue to lose more weight each week on the program. It’s not like any other diet plan. It changes your life.”
    Brittany K.
  • “I’ve lost 41 pounds and only have 9 pounds to go before I reach my goal weight! My energy has soared, I sleep better and have less inflammation. I’m better able to care for my kids and my self-confidence has increased. On the Cherokee Women’s Health Weight Loss Program, I’ve learned portion control, how to believe in myself again, that sugar is not my friend and to not be afraid to use doctor-approved medication to help achieve my goals. This program gives you the tools you need to succeed through an amazing, medically-trained staff that supports you 100% of the way. To anyone who's struggled to lose the weight, I would say to them, ‘One Day or Day One? You decide!’”
    Christy W.
  • "I reached my first goal weight with the help of Cherokee Women's weight loss program and continue to follow their program to lose the next 20 pounds."
    Tanya T.
  • I've lost 38 pounds in 4 months. I have more energy and I can do daily tasks that I took for granted and realized I couldn't do them. I realize there has to be a balance in the food you eat. If you eat bad make sure you don't go overboard and try to reorganize the way you eat. I've learned how to count calories. To know I can eat foods I like but that I need to stay within certain limits. I've learned that FOOD DOES NOT CONTROL ME! I would tell others that joining this program is well worth it! I love the people who constantly encourage you and help to keep you going even when you have had a bad week. I like the fact that you have a doctor monitoring the process and who cares about you the person, not just the "patient.".
