The Wig Dr. relocates in East Cobb to Parkaire Medical Center Archives

Submitted information and photo:

“The Wig Dr., formerly located at the Parkaire Shopping Center in Marietta, has relocated to a larger space at Parkaire Medical Center, 4939 Lower Roswell Rd, Ste B-202, Marietta, GA 30068, to provide even more services for women who are undergoing chemotherapy or who have had a mastectomy. In addition to the custom fittings and beautiful wigs that Dr. Erica Gamble has previously provided for years to breast cancer survivors in East Cobb and throughout Atlanta, the new location will also offer specialized mastectomy prosthetic fittings, bras, swimwear, compression sleeves for lymphedema and hair rejuvenating scalp massage.

“Dr. Gamble saw the need for compassionate and knowledgeable care for breast cancer survivors. The Wig Dr is a place where a woman, losing a part of herself…her femininity…can come and feel whole again. ‘Some of my clients are still working and don’t want to be viewed with sympathetic smiles. And since each fitting is by appointment only, I take the time these brave women need to share their stories and help them find a look that’s unique to them. Since we have hundreds of styles and colors from which to choose, I can find them something similar to their previous look, or something completely different.’

“Joining Dr. Gamble at the new location, is Erica Driver, a stage IV breast cancer survivor and trained mastectomy bra fitter, and Patty Prifti, a wig fitter with The Wig Dr. for over two years. These three women look forward to working with clients who are going through the most difficult times in their lives and giving them an empowering experience where they can take back a part of themselves. The Wig Dr. client and breast cancer survivor Anne Parke says that she enjoyed the personalized attention in a relaxed atmosphere. ‘But more importantly, I now look like my partner’s contemporary…in age and appearance. I have bald spots and thinning hair due to my chemo, and the new wigs make me feel more like myself again.’ ”
