Brandee Albert Joins Hamilton Physician Group – Gastroenterology

October 24, 2019

Brandee Albert, DOBrandee Albert, doctor of osteopathic medicine (DO), a new physician at Hamilton Physician Group – Gastroenterology in Dalton, GA, says she chose the healthcare profession because she had always been interested in healthy lifestyles.

“Working in healthcare allows me to help my patients work toward or maintain a healthy lifestyle and good quality of life through cancer screenings and treatment of other conditions,” she says.

 

She says gastroenterology conditions can sometimes be difficult or embarrassing for patients to talk about. “I hope to make new patients feel comfortable, and I think it’s important to have a good sense of humor to make patients feel at ease,” she says. “I also like to discuss the steps of procedures in detail and answer questions to ease any anxiety patients may have.”

 

Dr. Albert completed a gastroenterology fellowship and internal medicine residency at Carolinas HealthCare System – Blue Ridge in Morganton, N.C.

March is Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month. Colorectal cancer is the second leading cancer killer in the U.S., but it doesn’t have to be. Colorectal cancer doesn’t always cause symptoms, especially early on. Finding it early by getting screened is key. Hamilton Physician Group (HPG) – Gastroenterology recommends that you talk with your doctor about a colonoscopy. Pictured are some staff member at HPG – Gastroenterology.
