What should I expect during a well-woman visit?
The annual well-woman exam often makes women feel nervous or uncomfortable, especially if it’s their first one. If it’s time to schedule your first well-woman exam, it can help to know exactly what to expect to help you feel prepared and at ease during your appointment. A well-woman exam will start like any other doctor’s appointment. You will be asked to fill out paperwork with questions about your family medical history, any medications you’re taking,
general demographic information, your menstrual cycle, whether or not you’re sexually active, and whether you’ve been
pregnant before.
There are four parts of the well-woman exam: the physical exam, breast exam, pelvic exam, and pap smear. Breast exams help detect early signs of breast cancer, while the pelvic exam helps detect early stages of cancer, sexually transmitted diseases, and other pathology of the pelvis, and a pap smear helps to detect early forms of cervical cancer.
How does billing and insurance work? Do you do self-pay?
At registration, we will confirm your coverage and what you can expect to pay. We do request that the co-pay be paid at the time of your appointment. If you do not have health insurance or if we are not contracted with your insurance we do offer a discounted fee schedule available at the time of your appt.
How do I reach a healthcare professional after office hours?
In case of emergencies, if you are pregnant, go to Ascension St. John Medical Center located at 21st and Utica and proceed directly to the OB emergency department located on the 6th floor of the hospital. For our non-pregnant patients we recommend you be seen at an urgent care or hospital emergency department closest to you.
