Dr. Patricia C. Green
Dr. Trish Green was born and raised in Pensacola and is excited about bringing her unique skills back to her hometown. She is one of the few fellowship-trained breast imagers in the country – completing a fellowship at Harvard’s Massachusetts General Hospital in 2001 under the direction of some of the leading experts in the field of mammography and diagnostic radiology. While at Mass General, she also received specialty training in body imaging and dedicated women’s imaging. Following her fellowship she was appointed clinical instructor at Harvard Medical School, where she was involved in teaching medical students, radiology residents and fellows. Now married with two daughters, she has nearly 10 years experience in private practice and has interpreted thousands of mammograms and imaging studies, including PET/CT.
“My goal is to diagnose medical disease and cancer at the earliest point possible— when there is the greatest possibility of successful treatment. I approach every patient’s imaging study as if it were my mom or dad, sister or brother,” said Dr. Green. Her approach echoes the philosophy of the entire Woodland’s medical team — to best serve the needs of the patient’s we encounter by using a multidisciplinary approach to patient care. With her office onsite at the Woodland’s, she is able to discuss patient’s imaging studies directly with the physicians treating the patient to correlate with the patient’s clinical scenario.
Tracy Frank, R.N. Nurse Navigator
Tracy Frank has been working with the Hematology-Oncology physicians of the Woodlands for over a decade, and is now serving as the Breast Health Services Nurse Navigator. Tracy is a breast cancer survivor, and was diagnosed in 1997. After chemotherapy and radiation therapy, Tracy now lives cancer free. Tracy’s experience makes her a perfect fit for the role, as she understands the importance of communication and support upon diagnosis.
In her free time, Tracy enjoys spending time with her husband, Greg, and her son, Gordon. Tracy also enjoys cooking and is an avid runner. Her most recent run was in Jacksonville, FL supporting breast cancer at the National Breast Cancer Marathon.
Nurse Navigators are patient educators and advocates, care coordinators, system navigators, and community ambassadors on a mission to improve the breast health services experience for each patient. The Nurse Navigator is a support system for the patient and her family at a critical time — after diagnosis and through treatment — and serves as a "gateway" that links the patients and physicians at The Woodlands Center of Specialized Medicine.
At The Woodlands, the Nurse Navigator works to support patients from beginning to end, including:
- Planning and educating patients and families after an abnormal mammogram and/or biopsy.
- Supporting and navigating each patient through diagnosis by reinforcing education and coordinating information and care with a team of physicians and allied healthcare professionals.
- Teaching about cancer prevention, screening guidelines, diagnosis, treatment options, and the importance of early detection.
