Southeast physicians provide patients with expert, comprehensive medical care from obstetrics to wound care.
__Southeast Obstetrics / Gynecology__
At Southeast Obstetrics/Gynecology, skilled and caring physicians Dianne S. Woolard, MD, FACOG, and Wendelly Vasquez, MD, along with experienced nurse practitioners Glenda Robison and Christy Cook, provide expert care for their patients.
Dr. Woolard says the new practice located at 1723 Broadway, Ste. 315 in Cape Girardeau builds upon the women's healthcare services provided by SoutheastHEALTH. "Southeast has the strongest foundation and the greatest commitment to serving this region," she adds.
Dr. Vasquez says Southeast Hospital provides excellent healthcare services. "It is a community hospital, but it has so much technology to offer," she notes. The technology includes the state-of-the-art da Vinci Robotic Surgical System. Dr. Vasquez is experienced in performing gynecological procedures with such technology.

When it comes to child care, Southeast Pediatrics provides a kid-friendly dcor at its new location with bright colorful walls and animal shapes. The practice of Paul Leland, DO, is located at 25 Doctors' Park.
"It is a child friendly environment. We want children to be comfortable," says Dr. Leland. The new location is easily accessible with a circular drive where patients can be dropped off at the front door for added convenience.
