Women's Health

Annual well-woman exams are an important part of your health. During this annual check-up, our providers listen to your concerns, discuss your health history, and conduct important tests or physical exams in order to assess your health and wellness. Your exam may include:

• Breast exam
• Mammogram
• Ultrasound
• Diagnostic screenings 

Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer among women, and it is estimated that 1 in 8 women will develop breast cancer in their lifetime. Early detection is key to successful treatment. That’s why the American Cancer Society recommends a mammogram for women over 40 every year.  

A mammogram is a low-dose x-ray of the breasts used to detect cancer before a lump becomes large enough to be felt. Our Nancy Reagan Breast Center offers advanced three-dimensional (3D) mammography, which allows radiologists to examine breast tissue with incredible clarity and detail to detect the smallest, early-stage cancers, and avoid false positives. This technology is especially useful for women with dense breast tissue.

Osteoporosis is a disease that makes your bones fragile and prone to fractures. It is common in women over 50 years of age. While there is no known cure for osteoporosis, there are ways to slow its progression and prevent the injuries it can cause. That’s why we offer bone density scans for women who begin to show symptoms. This painless, noninvasive test will let us know if you have osteoporosis so you can take the proper measures moving forward. 

The involuntary leakage of urine is a common issue for women, often linked to pregnancy, childbirth, aging, or pelvic floor disorders. Our urology team identifies the type and cause, then tailors treatment, which may include pelvic floor exercises, bladder training, medications, or minimally invasive procedures. With compassionate, expert care, we help women regain control and confidence in their daily lives.
