Gynecologic Screenings

The importance of your “Well Woman” visit.

When it's time for your annual visit, envision your appointment as another step in taking charge of your body and your health.

The benefits of a "Well Woman" visit include:

• Determining which preventive gynecologic exams are needed, such as a pap test.
• Discussing potential signs and symptoms of gynecologic cancer.
• An annual breast exam by our physician to detect any lumps or abnormalities. This is another preventive step in fighting breast cancer.
• Screenings for HPV and sexually transmitted diseases.
