Meet six surgeons who taking the healing arts to an entirely different level. They are all gynecologic oncologists, who spend their days helping women (and their families) with cancer. In March 2008, these doctors had a “out-of-the-box” opportunity to help their patients. They were challenged to put down their scalpels, pick up their instruments, and use a different talent to help fight gynecologic cancers.

What was created from this challenge was a rock band with a purpose: N.E.D. The name of the band itself and their self-titled debut CD, No Evidence of Disease, represents the hope that every gynecologic oncologist has for patients - the end of the patient’s treatment is the end of their cancer.

These doctor-musicians believe that music heals. More than 250 journal articles report findings that support this belief. N.E.D. is dedicated to using music to provide hope, strength, and comfort to those women, who are battling cancer, and their loved ones. But it does not stop there. The mission of N.E.D. is to raise awareness about gynecologic cancers through the power of music.

With original music influenced by a wide variety of artists from the last quarter century, N.E.D. put together an eclectic mix of rock songs – a melting pot of music. There is a song for everyone on their debut EP.

Join the conversation on September 8, 2009, when N.E.D. releases No Evidence of Disease to coincide with Gynecologic Cancer Awareness Month. Proceeds from the sale of the CD and live performances will be donated to the N.E.D. Cancer Foundation, supported by the Gynecologic Cancer Foundation (GCF) whose mission is to educate the public about gynecologic cancers and support promising research.
