Pamela Gaudry, MD, or “Dr. Pam” as she’s affectionately known to her patients, has been practicing in Savannah for 33 years. She is an OB/GYN by training and had always done her female patient's primary care since she completed her residency at The Medical College of Georgia in 1993. In 2007, she stopped practicing obstetrics due to her late husband's illness. Dr. Pam developed a large gynecology practice and got extra training in menopausal medicine and intimacy counseling. Her goal was to help women get through menopause safely, sanely, and well-educated.
In January 2018, Dr. Pam branched out again and opened up "The Georgia Center for Menopausal Medicine and Direct Primary Care." Direct Primary Care is a new type of health-care practice which puts the patient first. In this practice, the patient must think of healthcare differently – you are part of her medical family.
In Direct Primary Care, the patient "employs" the physician to be there when they need them...not when it is convenient for the physician to fit the patient into the schedule. This type of medical care was so popular with her patients that their husbands started coming in to ask for the same care. So, in October of 2020, Dr. Pam opened her practice to primary care for men.
This type of practice has the same benefits of a ‘concierge practice’ without using insurance. At her unique Direct Primary Care practice, Dr. Pam offers hour-long appointments in a calm and comfortable setting allowing her patients to address as many medical issues as they want.
In April 2024, Dr. Pam sold her practice and joined Coastal Care Partners and brought her patients to their practice. She has been extremely happy joining their medical practice. This is a membership practice. Access to Dr. Pam is 24/7 via text, phone, or email. She lets her patients know via email if she is out of town for continuing medical education, events, or vacations. During football season, there are 5-hour blocks of time on Georgia Football Saturdays that should be reserved for emergency calls only (*** See Georgia Football schedule). Dr. Pam will be your medical quarterback.
She will work with your existing healthcare providers to coordinate any care that is needed. In her opinion, the key to caring for the patient is “caring” for the patient. Her patients are treated like her family.
A benefit to membership is getting generic prescriptions, lab, and pap fees at wholesale costs. Appointments are readily available and urgent visits can be made for the same day. We communicate with our patients mainly via text messaging which is convenient and fast.
Raised in Savannah, Georgia, Dr. Pam started her educational journey at the University of Georgia in Athens, Georgia, graduating summa cum laude. From there, she went to medical school at the Medical College of Georgia in Augusta, Georgia, where she remained and completed her residency.
Dr. Pam is married and has two children (boy-girl twins, 3 grandchildren, and one on the way. She has lived in Savannah, Georgia since 1971. Her intense passions are her Christian faith, reading the Bible, family, playing with her grandchildren, gardening, butterflies, golden retrievers, comedy shows, and football. Her 6th golden retriever, Munson, comes to the office every day greets you at the door. She is a die-hard Georgia Bulldog fan, and on football Saturdays, she can usually be found screaming in the stands of Sanford Stadium in Athens. She will be the one in red. Dr. Pam sat next to Hershel Walker in her very first class...her very first day...at UGA in August 1981. She got to touch his thighs that day. There have been other great days in her life as well...but not many others worthy of mentioning.
