Obstetrician/Gynecologists are often the only doctors that women
see on a regular basis. California law now states that women can
have direct access to their Ob/Gyn without requiring a referral.
For this reason, we often act as primary care providers for many
women. You may check with us or with your Insurance carrier as to
whether you may choose us as your primary care provider.
Regardless of whether we are your primary care provider, we
do believe strongly in preventive care and health maintenance.
This includes:
- Self breast exam
- Weight management and nutrition
- Smoking cessation
- Cholesterol screening
- Osteoporosis prevention
- Stress management
Many programs are available through Sequoia Hospital's Heath and
Wellness Center.
