Dr. Stovall Has Retired
Allow me to begin by saying that it has been an honor and a privilege to serve the people of Memphis as a Doctor of Gynecology and Obstetrics for over 35 years, most of which have been spent right here at MOGA.
With that said, I would like to announce that I have decided to retire in order to better enjoy my health and family while I still have both! I feel honored to have served with the amazing men and women of the Memphis Obstetrics and Gynecological Association.
I sincerely hope that my patients will have the utmost confidence, as I have, in transferring their care to one of my esteemed colleagues.
To my wonderful patients, your medical records remain with the facility, and should you choose to stay on with MOGA, you will find the process of getting started with a new doctor to be quick and painless.
My sincerest thanks to those that have allowed me to be a small part of the joys and cares of their lives. You have all given a very special purpose to my life, and I wish you all the success and happiness that are possible on your own.
Sincerely,
Thomas G. Stovall, M.D.
