Our Philosophy

Women deserve to receive care from physicians who understand their problems and with whom they are comfortable discussing their most personal issues. Our physicians and staff are dedicated to respecting the personal dignity of our patients and to maintaining the highest standards of care. Comfort, respect and quality medical care are the values that guide us.

All providers are supported by a dedicated, professional staff. We provide a full range of pregnancy, gynecology, gyn surgery, pediatric & adolescent gynecology and reproductive endocrinology services. We also offer education and counseling regarding all women’s issues.

What is an Obstetrician/Gynecologist (OBGYN)?

An Obstetrician/Gynecologist (OBGYN) is a physician who provides medical and surgical care to women during all phases of life: from adolescence, through the childbearing years, and on into the advanced years. Obstetrics and Gynecology deal with the various aspects of the female reproductive system for both pregnant and non-pregnant patients, and are two distinct surgical fields combined into one medical specialty.

Obstetricians complete intense education and training in pregnancy, labor and puerperium (the time immediately after the delivery of a baby). Gynecologists complete training in the female reproductive system, including the diagnosis and treatment of disorders and diseases. Education and training for both fields occur simultaneously, enabling a physician with this level of expertise to provide tremendous preventative and prenatal care to women.
