Healthy Living
Growing up, Dr. Lisa Franklin always had an interest in math and science. “I’ve always been interested in how the human body works,” Dr. Franklin says. After graduating from Jacksonville State University, this interest led her to attend medical school at the University of South Alabama. A native of Alexandria, Ala., she has lived in the state her entire life except for her four years of residency at Georgia Baptist Medical Center in Atlanta.
Dr. Franklin joined the Henderson & Walton Women’s Center, P.C. (HWWC) nine years ago. One aspect of her job that she especially enjoys is getting to know her patients. “I love being a part of people’s lives as they grow into a family,” she says. One of her favorite parts of being a doctor is “getting to be involved in a patient’s care from having babies and watching their children grow up.”
Dr. Franklin doesn’t just serve patients in the Cullman and Birmingham HWWC offices. She has been on medical mission trips to Malawi, Ecuador, and the Dominican Republic! She strives to help women make the best choices for their personal health.
For more than 30 years, Henderson & Walton Women’s Center has been specializing in women’s health care in the Birmingham and surrounding areas. All the OB/GYN physicians, including Dr. Franklin, are board certified by the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology. For patient convenience, HWWC sees patients in Birmingham, Alabaster, Chelsea, Cullman, Rainbow City/Gadsden, Jasper and Tuscaloosa.
