A NOTE FROM DR. CUTLER:

One of my founding principles since 1986 at Athena Institute for Women's Wellness remains part of our core mission today; to work to improve the quality of health care for women. One of the services we have fostered is to employ student interns interested in learning the scientific process and potential futures in the medical health fields.

The other group of essential staff members who help support Athena Institute, are active mothers who want to work part time. These women are educated, accomplished mothers wanting to maintain their skills in the work force as they devote years to raising their families. They form an important phase of life as they face the challenge of finding meaningful employment yet still coordinating their home life as a priority. We are excited to be a part of their success.
