About us
Our mission at Avant Gynecology is to provide exceptional, compassionate care to women at every stage of their lives. We hope that every patient feels appreciated, listened to and cared for every time they walk into our office. Our providers strive to be at the forefront of knowledge and skill in the fields of women’s health and gynecologic surgery, so our patients can get the best care possible. We welcome patients of all ages, races, sexual orientations, religions, and nationalities. Avant Gynecology is a new name but represents a long-established practice that has been serving generations of women for more than 40 years. Originally established by founding physicians Dr. Stuart McDaniel and Dr. Walter Ratchford, Dr. Lynley Durrett joined in 2001, and the practice became known as McDaniel & Durrett Gynecology. Dr. Obiamaka Mora later joined McDaniel & Durrett Gynecology in 2011 and oversaw the transition to Avant Gynecology in partnership with Dr. Durrett in 2018. After 20 years of providing obstetrics and gynecologic care, the practice transitioned to solely practicing gynecology. This has allowed our doctors the ability to refine their surgical skills and achieve great progress in keeping up with the newest advanced technologies in gynecologic medicine and surgery.
