SARASOTA — Sarasota Memorial recently welcomed a new gynecologic oncologist to its First Physicians Group’s network of medical specialists.

Dr. Long will join Toni Kilts, DO, in a practice dedicated to caring for women with gynecological malignancies and complex surgical needs. The practice focuses on complex ovarian cancer surgery, fertility-sparing and risk-reducing surgery, and robotic and minimally invasive surgery, as well as biopsies and screenings. Board-certified in obstetrics (OB) and gynecology (GYN) and board-eligible in gynecologic oncology, Dr. Long earned her medical degree in 2011 from the University of South Alabama College of Medicine in Mobile, Ala., and completed her OB-GYN residency in 2015 at the University of California-Irvine in Irvine, Calif. In 2018, Dr. Long completed her fellowship in gynecologic oncology at the Mayo Clinic College of Medicine in Rochester, Minn.
