Services
Caring for women throughout all stages of their lives.
From the beginning of their reproductive years and through menopause, Siouxland Women’s Health Care offers Sioux City women, and those in the surrounding area, a wide range of gynecology services that cover everything from basic annual exams and prenatal care and delivery, to post-menopausal treatments. No matter what kind of care a woman needs, she will be able to access exceptional and personalized health services with us.
We provide a full range of gynecologic services for women from the teenage through post-menopausal years. The core of our gynecology practice is preventive or ‘Well Woman’ care. The majority of patients see us annually for a check-up, which consists of a comprehensive review and update of overall health status, a full exam, a discussion of any findings, routine lab tests, referrals for other services, and recommendations for health maintenance.
Preventative Care
Annual check-ups play a vital role in women’s health. Visits include a comprehensive review and update of overall health status, a full exam, a discussion of any findings, routine lab tests, referrals for other services, and recommendations for health maintenance. The guidelines for Pap testing have recently changed, and, in most cases, it is not necessary to have a Pap smear every year. However, it is still important to have regular visits for preventive health care.
Contraception
At Siouxland Women’s Health, we believe that women should be in control of their reproductive health. Beyond preventing pregnancy, contraception provides other benefits for patients looking to regulate their cycle, prevent side effects such as menstrual migraines or heavy flow, or assist in the treatment of women’s health conditions like endometriosis or polycystic ovarian syndrome. We offer a range of contraceptive options. Ask our doctors about a treatment plan that matches your goals.
