About Sanders Clinic for Women

Sanders Clinic for Women is an independent women's health practice in Tupelo that has been open since 1971, with nine physicians and three nurse practitioners working out of two offices in town. Dr. Turner joined in 2004 and does general obstetric and gynecologic care, seeing patients at every stage of life. The practice splits its gynecology work into care before 40 and care after 40, and menopause treatment sits in the after-40 list next to well woman exams and urinary health. The site does not say what menopause treatment here involves or whether hormones are part of it. Visits are in person during weekday clinic hours, and a new patient starts by calling or filling in the appointment request form on the site. Dr. Turner studied microbiology at Mississippi State before medical school and has chaired the obstetrics and gynecology section at North Mississippi Medical Center, where the clinic's doctors deliver babies and operate.
