Catharin Peters, NP

Catharin Peters, NP, is a UW Health nurse practitioner in gynecologic oncology. Catharin cares for patients with gynecological cancers, including cervical cancer, ovarian cancer and uterine cancer. She also cares for patients with gynecological conditions, including pelvic pain, ovarian cysts (fluid-filled sacs in the ovary) and polycystic ovarian syndrome (hormonal disorder causing enlarged ovaries with cysts).

My patient care philosophy is from the Robin Williams movie Patch Adams: 'You treat a disease, you win, you lose. You treat a person, I guarantee you, you’ll win, no matter what the outcome.'
