Annual Physical/Pap
Wellness exams are an important part of your overall healthcare. These visits help us identify and treat any problems that may develop. We want to prevent acute, chronic or even emergent needs from developing. These visits are an excellent time to discuss day to day concerns you may have about your health.
No longer required on an annual basis, a pap smear is performed to look for changes in cervical cells before they turn into cancer.
Birth Control
There are a variety of birth control options available and a number of factors you should consider when choosing one. While all birth control options we offer can prevent pregnancy, they may have different side effects. Our providers are available to help you navigate these options to make sure you find the birth control option that’s best for you.
Incontinence
Incontinence is a common condition that happens because of problems with the muscles and nerves that help the bladder hold or release urine. You may leak urine when you cough or sneeze. Or you may have a sudden urge to go but can’t get to the bathroom in time. We are here to help!
Menopause
A personalized evaluation of uncomfortable symptoms such as hot flashes and night sweats along with assessment regarding the benefits and risks of hormone replacement therapy or other non-hormonal treatments will help you and your Practitioner make well-informed decisions about what’s best for you.
Mammogram
Women should begin scheduling their annual mammograms at the age of 40. Detecting breast cancer at its earliest stage is crucial to survival. Having an annual mammogram is an important first step in diagnosing breast cancer.
