Gynecological Conditions & Services

Leaky tampons, underwire bras, walking in heels, the expectation to reproduce and gender equality - the list goes on. As women, we have a lot to worry about! Women are twice as likely as men to become clinically depressed1. It’s not just the long list of stressors that cause depression though; it’s unfortunately subpar support systems, challenges in seeking help to fulfill our own needs and wants, and sometimes a lack of investment into our own healthcare.

It’s time to empower ourselves and other women in our lives to be proactive about women’s healthcare. To promote wellness and choice. To care for ourselves the same way we care for others.

As Women’s Health providers, we ask you – are you taking care of yourself the same way you take care of your partner, or children, pets or friends? When was the last time you had an annual checkup? Did your healthcare provider make you feel comfortable enough to ask questions? Were you able to express your concerns? Did you feel listened to?

We encourage you to take time to take care of YOU. Let us help you build your support system of experts and healthcare professionals so you can navigate through life with confidence.

Exceptional Patient Experiences

Our team provides you with personalized, compassionate care and a supportive medical team before, during and after appointments. We strive to facilitate honest conversations to address your health needs, concerns and challenges. It is when you feel comfortable, as a patient – to express your needs, ask questions, and feel empowered to take action – that you truly make the most of your relationship with your physician.

If you have questions or feel concerned about your health, or are exploring other options - we encourage you to call us!
