Compassionate, Holistic, Evidenced-based Women’s Health Care
Women seek healthcare for many different reasons during their lifespan. Our integrated, multidisciplinary team strives to provide compassionate, holistic, evidenced-based care within an environment of trust and respect. We are committed to supporting women not only during illness but also to empower women to optimize their health throughout their lives.
Gynecology
We offer comprehensive women’s gynecological care including preventive services, contraceptive care, gynecological surgery, and treatment for issues related to the female reproductive system– from childhood through menopause and beyond.
Sexual Medicine
Sexual Medicine supports women with such sexual health concerns as low desire, difficulty with orgasm, and pelvic pain, with the goal of optimizing their sexual health. We take women’s sexual concerns seriously and believe that women deserve to be heard and treated with respect. We provide a comprehensive assessment to inform accurate, timely diagnoses and effective, evidenced-based treatment options for women with a wide range of sexual concerns.
Functional Medicine
Functional Medicine is an approach to healthcare that focuses on examining core imbalances that underlie a disease and illness. Rather than just treating symptoms, it uses a systems-oriented approach that engages both patient and practitioner in a therapeutic partnership. This approach recognizes that each person’s path to disease or health is unique. We try to understand individual factors in order to modify them and shifty the momentum from disease to health.
Breast Health
Your breasts change as you go through different stages of your life. It’s important to learn what is normal for your breasts. This is called breast self-awareness. The key to breast self-awareness is knowing how your breasts normally look and feel. This helps you to notice any changes.
Breast self-awareness isn’t about following a certain method and schedule. Breast self-awareness is knowing what’s normal for your breasts. That way you can notice even small changes right away. If you see any changes, report them to your healthcare provider right away.
Breast Health Assessment
Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in women other than skin cancer. The American Cancer Society says the breast cancer death rate is declining. This is probably because of earlier detection through routine screening and better treatment. Early detection is the main way to find breast cancer when it’s small and easier to treat.
This short assessment will help you learn if you have risk factors that may raise your breast cancer risk. It is not a complete review of all breast cancer risks. For a complete evaluation of your risks, schedule an appointment with your primary care provider or at Women’s Health of CMA. Knowing your breast cancer risk is helpful when making a breast cancer screening plan.
