Obstetrics and Gynecology
Beginning at age 18, all women should schedule regular check-ups with a gynecologist or qualified women's health provider as annual pap smears and clinical breast exams allow early diagnosis of disease and lead to improved outcomes.
Our southern New York staff of gynecologists, OB doctors and nurse practitioners are dedicated to the special health concern of women. We've created a compassionate environment at our women's health center where teenagers can feel comfortable asking our gynecologists or nurse practitioners questions about the menstrual cycle, breast development and other concerns.
Those entering mid-life or living their senior years depend on comprehensive services from our New York gynecologists and nurse practitioners, including a schedule for mammogram, advice about menopause and information about osteoporosis and incontinence. Our Minimally Invasive Suite, at UHS Wilson Medical Center, offers state-of-the-art treatment for female incontinence that greatly reduces recovery time.
