Dr. Miller-Thrasher was born and raised in Harlem and is one of seven brothers and sisters. She credits her mother, her grandmother, and the Lord for her perseverance, and her older brothers’ guidance in her decision to pursue medicine.

She studied at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York, graduating with a major in biology and a minor in nutritional sciences before completing her residency training at New York University. She was recruited to join the faculty of Emory University School of Medicine in Atlanta, Georgia, as an assistant professor, where she taught and trained students and residents.

She assisted in the care of thousands of women and took part in more than 1,000 cosmetic surgical procedures of the face, neck, breast, and body. 

Her years of gynecologic surgery experience, along with her cutting-edge formal clinical fellowship training in cosmetic surgery and award-winning bedside manner, make her uniquely qualified to artfully transform her patients into a more beautiful version of their natural selves.

Her inclusion in Essence magazine’s feature on “Gynecologists You Love,” as well as being a Patient’s Choice Award recipient, serves as an abbreviated testament to the care she provides.

Heather Laflam, CNM, is a certified nurse-midwife and women’s health nurse practitioner at Nile Women’s Health Care in Roswell, Georgia. 

Heather’s goal as a certified-nurse midwife is to make sure no woman has to experience the type of traumatic experience that she went through with the birth of her second child. She wants to help others avoid feeling the way she did. It’s what guided her pursuit to become a midwife.

Originally from Danielsville, GA, Heather attended the Medical College of GA for her bachelors in nursing where she decided she would dedicate her career to helping mothers and babies. After working as a highly-motivated registered nurse in labor and delivery for over a decade she went back to Georgia College and State University for her masters to become a certified nurse midwife.

Now, as an official member of the Nile Women’s Health Care family, Heather will be providing comprehensive care to gynecological, obstetrical, antepartum, intrapartum, and postpartum clients. Heather believes, as a society, we need to take better care of our women immediately following the birth of their children. As a result, she focuses on postpartum depression with research and education. As an Alpharetta/Roswell midwife, Heather will deliver at Wellstar North Fulton Hospital.

Heather and her family still call their quaint town home. As a self-described hard worker, she enjoys sewing and embroidering baby items when not at work.

Board-certified OB/GYN Hughan Frederick, MD, FACOG, is the founder of Nile Women’s Health Care in Roswell and Suwanee, Georgia.

Trained in the fields of obstetrics, gynecology, bio-identical hormones, and bariatrics, he has the unique expertise to help women through life’s many stages.

While he manages several high-risk pregnancies, Dr. Frederick maintains a low C-section rate compared to the national average. He has performed hundreds of gynecological surgeries including hysterectomies, laparoscopies, and routine OB/GYN examinations.

Since establishing Nile Women’s Health Care in 2006, Dr. Frederick’s practice has grown to be among the largest women’s care practices serving the Alpharetta and Roswell areas. The reason North Fulton women choose Nile Women’s Health Care is not its size, however, but rather the personal attention and emphasis on patient participation in their own holistic care. 

Known for his friendly bedside manner, Dr. Frederick is most popular for his naturalistic approach to women’s health. Pills and surgery are given as final options, not the first suggestion. His philosophy has garnered him many accolades including being voted one of the best doctors in Roswell and Alpharetta, Georgia.

In addition to Nile Women’s Health Care, he serves as the medical director for Glow Anti-Aging Center and Medical Spa. For the privacy and convenience of several clients, he offers novel therapies for vaginal atrophy, urinary leakage, and vaginal dryness in this full-service, luxury space.

Dr. Frederick currently serves as Chairman of Women’s and Children’s Services at North Fulton Hospital. He is board certified by the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, a Fellow of the American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, as well as a member of the American Medical Association and the National Medical Association. He is also active in the community, a supporter of the March of Dimes, and is a member of the North Fulton Chamber of Commerce. He is married and has two sons and one daughter.
