Upper Great Lakes Family Health Center, which is part of
Portage Health, announced they have added a new physician to their women's health team of providers.
Emily Kenny, M.D., is now part of the obstetrics and gynecology team. It's a return home for Kenny, who is a Copper Country native. She received a bachelor's degree from University of Michigan and followed it up with a M.D. at Michigan State University College of Human Medicine, as part of the Rural Physician Program. She also served a residency at the Maine Medical Center in Portland, Maine.
Her duties will include working in the obstetrics and gynecology clinic along with Dr. Julie Meyer in Hancock, during business hours, and also will assist with deliveries in the Portage Health Family Birthing Center, as well as performing outpatient and inpatient surgery.
"We are so excited to have Dr. Kenny join our team," says Shannon Richter, director of operations at Upper Great Lakes Family Health Center. "Dr. Kenny's modern medical knowledge and excellent patient interaction will be a wonderful complement to our team."
