Women's Health

Overall Women's Health

It may make sense for you to visit your primary care provider, an internist, or a family doctor, for routine women’s health examinations. Many women turn to their primary care provider as it is safe and convenient. In most cases, we can provide you with the exact same services you would find at a gynecologist or other specialists in women’s health. While we might not offer just women’s health, we have done extensive training on the various testing and questions that might come up. 

Our team of experts works with our patients to ensure they have all of their yearly and routine appointments taken care of. We can schedule your mammograms and offer assistance with STD testing. Furthermore, we offer generalized pap smears and other basic tests. This allows you access to women’s healthcare at affordable pricing that also is quick and convenient. There aren’t the lines you might find a specialist’s office.

Health Care Specialized for Women's Health

Women encounter specific health challenges throughout their lifetime, which might alter from one year to the next based on age, lifestyle, and genetic history. As a result, the overall subject of women’s health can cover a wide spectrum of healthcare experts, each performing a particular role in caring for female patients. But this large spectrum of experts can sometimes make things a little complicated. If we feel that our patients need specialized care, we work toward providing that by offering you a referral to a doctor that is better suited. 

We do pap smears and STD screening, and breast exams. Furthermore, we can refer individuals for breast exam tests as suggested based on their age and family/medical history. Furthermore, we will refer our patients out to specialized practices should there be an issue that arises where we feel it is in the patient’s best interest. While we can perform and offer many women’s health services, we understand that there are some things that are outside of our expertise. When this arises, we take great care in finding a physician that can meet the needs of our clients. 

Selecting a Women's Health Specialist

Selecting the best women’s health professional for you is vital to preserving your overall health. If you already see a primary care provider who you trust, you may ask them for a referral. Furthermore, we can also provide you with standard care, such as various tests, and help with understanding what is happening with your body. Our team of experts is there to help you decide what is best for family planning, and we even offer pediatric services to assist your little ones when they are born.

More Comprehensive Women's Healthcare

Establishing a long-term and trusted connection with your primary care provider is certainly advantageous to you. You will feel comfortable with your physician and feel like you can discuss just anything. However, when it comes to women’s health, you might feel that you need to take it a step further.

While we do offer comprehensive women’s health services, we certainly understand. Our primary care provider can discuss your issues and help you choose a specialist that will help you with your particular needs. Our team of experts has been working with patients with various issues. We are dependable and trustworthy in getting you the answers you deserve. Furthermore, we take great pride in working with our patients on an individual level. This ensures that we take into consideration age, family history, and lifestyle when making decisions that affect our health. When you seek an expert’s opinion on your women’s health issue, we are there for you, answering your questions and helping you make an informed decision. 

Knowing a patient for years or even decades means we can adapt our care based on our patient’s particular needs. Furthermore, we are wonderful resources and champions for our patients within the health system. Our goal is to provide the women in our office with the very best women’s health care possible. We take the time to listen to your concerns and work to help you find answers.
