Women’s Health

You take care of everyone else. It’s time to prioritize your health!

Visiting a health provider for a physical is an important part of staying healthy, but sometimes you need other checkups or tests to ensure your health is on the right track. Health conditions or diseases are best treated when found in the early stages. Even if you are feeling well, many “silent” symptoms don’t become evident until something serious occurs.

Our health providers are trained in these services and are here to help you stay as healthy as possible.

In general, women and men have many of the same health problems, but these problems can affect women differently. According to the National Institutes for Health:

  1. Women are more likely to die following a heart attack than men.
  2. The effects of sexually transmitted diseases can be more serious in women.
  3. Women are more likely to have urinary tract problems.
  4. More women than men suffer a stroke each year.

Women, take control of your health!
