Description of Program:
The Women’s Health Program at SAVAHCS is a collaborative practice designed to provide gender specific comprehensive medical care. The incorporation of Primary Care, Internal Medicine, Gynecology, Nurse Practitioners, Psychology, Social Work, Pharmacy, Dietary, and other ancillary members, allows patients to receive care in a coordinated and consistent manner. The all female team of physicians, nurse practitioners and nurses have the immediate consultation of other members. The goal is seamless medical care to meet the special needs of females.
Within the Women’s Health Program, comprehensive preventative services, primary care, and gynecology are available at any one patient visit. Office gynecology procedures are readily accommodated. Prenatal care and infertility office services are the newest addition to the team. Scheduling is flexible allowing the patient ready access to providers.
The Women’s Health Care Program allows for gender specific issues to be addressed in conjunction with primary care. Many of our patients live a distance from the SAVAHCS, therefore effort is made to coordinate appointments with different services when possible. Continuity, consistency, and access to care are priority values with our team. Patient satisfaction and guidance have changed and will continue to change services.
