Biography
Dr. Wilkinson was born in Jackson, MS. After she completed her training, she wanted to stay and serve the people of Mississippi. Dr. Tate Thigpen, who is known worldwide for his knowledge of gynecologic malignancies, was her mentor. As a result, she currently practices General Oncology with a special interest in gynecologic malignancies. Over time, she has also gained interest in the areas of malignant melanoma and gastrointestinal malignancies.
