Frequently Asked Questions

A women’s health clinic is a specialized healthcare center that focuses on providing comprehensive services to support health and well-being. These practices offer a wide range of medical, preventive, and holistic services tailored to your unique needs and life stages. From gynecological care and family planning to mental health support and nutrition counseling, this type of clinic aims to promote and enhance all aspects of health. These clinics also emphasize health education and empowerment, encouraging you to make informed decisions about your body and overall wellness.

The main difference between our clinic and a traditional medical practice lies in the specialized focus and approach to healthcare. While conventional medical practices typically provide a wide range of medical services for patients of all genders and ages, a women’s health clinic concentrates exclusively on women’s health needs.  We offer specialized services such as gynecological care, family planning, postnatal care, menopause management, and reproductive health screenings that cater specifically to your unique health concerns. We have an emphasis on holistic and preventive care, taking into account not only the physical aspects of health but also emotional, mental, and social well-being. This specialized approach ensures that you receive comprehensive and tailored healthcare, creating a supportive and nurturing environment that addresses your distinct health needs at every stage of life.

At McKenzie River Gynecology, we are committed to providing a comprehensive range of services tailored to meet the diverse health needs of our clients. Our services include gynecological care, family planning,  postnatal care, menopause management, reproductive health screenings, mental health support and nutrition support.  Additionally, our clinic provides preventive health services such as vaccinations and screenings for breast and cervical cancer. With a focus on health education and empowerment, we strive to create a nurturing environment where you can prioritize your health and thrive at every stage of life.

Yes!  Telemedicine lets you connect to your provider remotely over video, and is a great alternative for visits that do not require a physical exam.  Examples include follow up visits, reviewing lab and radiology results, medication questions and refills, and contraception counseling.
