University Cancer & Blood Center (UCBC), a leading oncology and hematology practice for Northeast Georgia, welcomes Dr. Ashley Ray, an acclaimed fellowship-trained breast surgeon. Patients in need of breast cancer treatment can choose UCBC with confidence.
Dr. Ray is now seeing patients at UCBC’s North Chase Street location (658 N. Chase St., Suite 201, Athens).
Her breast cancer-related services include examinations, biopsies, surgeries, breast conservation therapy, and treatment for benign conditions.
“Dr. Ray’s commitment to the evaluation and care of patients is exemplary, which aligns with our overall mission,” says Dr. Petros Nikolinakos, managing partner. “And her presence at UCBC provides patients in the area access to a fellowship-trained breast surgeon.”
After earning her Doctor of Medicine degree from Mercer University School of Medicine in Macon, Ga., Dr. Ray completed her residency at the University of Mississippi Medical Center in Jackson, Miss.
