Our care team offers a range of services related to the female reproductive system including the uterus, ovaries, and vagina. We focus on preventive care and regular screenings to keep you healthy. We also take time to talk with you about your health, concerns, and goals.
Well-woman care should be a regular part of your health care routine. For most women, that means a once-a-year visit for a general health check. Even if you look and feel healthy, attending your annual well-woman exam is important to your health.
The well-woman exam may include:
- Bone density test
- Breast exam
- Discussion of the latest options for family planning
- Health maintenance education
- Mammogram
- Pap smear
- Review of your medical history
When should you see your well-woman care provider?
- If you are sexually active or over the age of 18
