Dr. Jacqueline Walters Biography

Dr. Jacqueline Walters is an American Philanthropist, health expert, women’s advocate, and TV personality. She is known for being a cast member of the reality television show; Married To Medicine which airs on Bravo-TV.

Dr. Jacqueline Walters Career

Dr. Walters has been through two rounds of breast cancer and has turned her pain into a drive to help women and men who have been diagnosed with breast cancer with their emotional and physical needs. She does this through her 50 Shades of Pink Foundation, an organization she started in 2013 to treat the inner and outer beauty of survivors.

Dr. Walters got her bachelor’s degrees from the University of Mississippi and Alcorn State University and her medical degree from the University of Mississippi School of Medicine. She then did her residency in obstetrics and gynecology at the Medical Center of Central Georgia and Mercer University. Since the release of her book “The Queen V,” Dr. Walters has become a best-selling author, which is another thing she has done well.

After her training was over, Dr. Jacqueline chose to go into private practice. She worked part-time at the Northside Hospital in Atlanta and was connected to it. She has worked in the private medical field for more than 23 years. Also, she has her own private office called Comprehensive Women’s OB/GYN. There, she does everything from preventive screenings to surgeries with minimal damage. Dr. Walters wants to give women the tools they need to take charge of their health and happiness, and she works hard to make that happen.

In 2004, Walters was told she had breast cancer. After the surgery, she had a mastectomy, and everything seemed fine until 2008 when she was told she had cancer again. With that in mind, Jacqueline had to have two mastectomy surgeries in a row, spaced four years apart. After going through the terrible effects of breast cancer herself, Walters chose to start a group to help other people who have survived it. The 50 Shades of Pink Foundation was started in 2013 and celebrates the beauty of women who have survived breast cancer, both on the inside and the outside. It also provides a positive space for patients to heal.

Over the years, Walters also set up a support group for women diagnosed with breast cancer. Along with that, she started a project called If We Are Dying More, We Should Be Doing More. She used this to fix the race gaps in health care and get more people interested in preventive care. Also, Jacqueline supports living a healthy life and loves eating well. Her other project is the “Fit is the New It” campaign, which aims to encourage people to make healthy living changes.

This happens through her new campaign, “If We Are Dying More, We Should Be Doing More.” The ad will bring attention to the health problems that Black women and men face more than their male counterparts, such as heart disease and death during childbirth.
