North Florida Women’s Physicians
Gynecology
Gynecologic Care
To
match our philosophy of excellence in all women’s care, we have
developed a system to keep you surrounded by the best medical team
possible. Your primary physician and his or her nursing staff will see
you for most, if not all, of your appointments. We also offer the
services of a Physician’s Assistant and Advanced Registered Nurse
Practitioners and Certified Nurse Midwives for annual exams and other well-woman care.
In the event of surgery, your care will be directed by your own primary
physician, and you will have another physician in our practice available
to you 24 hours a day on call, should you need assistance related to
your surgery.
If
your first appointment is for a routine annual exam, your primary
provider’s nurse will record your medical history, previous obstetric
history and generally introduce you to our practice. Your provider will
review your medical and family history and perform a complete physical
examination, which may include a urinalysis, Pap smear, and any other
tests indicated. Information about nutrition, exercise, personal care,
weight management and preventative health will be discussed. You will
have ample time with your provider to ask questions and discuss any
concerns you may have. During this visit you may be asked to stop by the
lab to have blood drawn for routine tests. If you have an emergent
problem and your primary provider is not available to see you, you may
be seen by another provider in our group. We assure you that one of us
is always available and ready to assist you.
