Obstetrics & Gynecology
Reproductive health specialists for all stages of life
An obstetrician-gynecologist (OB-GYN) has specialized training and education in the management of pregnancy, labor, delivery and the health of the female reproductive system. OB-GYNs care for women throughout life, but are also birth specialists. They deliver babies, perform c-sections and are trained to help women with higher-risk pregnancies or those who have additional medical complications.

Genetic Counseling
Compassionate genetics care
Genetic counselors use their extensive training in genetics to determine what patients are at risk and what testing would be helpful.
Family Practitioner
Care for mom, baby and the entire family
A family practitioner has specialized in the comprehensive health of individuals. Family practice physicians treat women (they also care for men and children) through all aspects of their health including childbirth. After delivery, a family practice physician can be the primary care provider for mom, baby and the entire family. Family practice physicians work closely with OB-GYN specialists if complications arise during pregnancy or delivery.
