Frequently Asked Questions
When should I schedule my first prenatal appointment?
We recommend scheduling your first prenatal appointment as soon as you know you’re pregnant, ideally between 6-8 weeks of pregnancy. Early prenatal care is crucial for monitoring your health and your baby’s development.
What should I expect during my annual gynecological exam?
Your annual exam includes a pelvic exam, Pap smear (if due), breast exam, and discussion of your reproductive health. We’ll also review your medical history, discuss contraception options, and address any concerns you may have.
Do you offer minimally invasive surgical options?
Yes, we specialize in minimally invasive procedures including laparoscopy, hysteroscopy, and robotic surgery. These techniques typically result in smaller incisions, less pain, shorter recovery times, and reduced scarring.
What fertility services do you provide?
We offer comprehensive fertility services including fertility testing, ovulation induction, intrauterine insemination (IUI), in vitro fertilization (IVF), and fertility preservation. Our reproductive endocrinologist will create a personalized treatment plan.
