The OB stands for obstetrician (maternity or pregnancy care). The GYN stands for gynecologist (care for women’s reproductive and sexual health needs).
OB/GYNs provide the full range of care for women, from pregnancy to menopause. They can also help you find the right birth control for you, treat pelvic floor and urinary conditions, screen for cancers and more.
Our OB/GYNs provide gynecologic care with honesty and reassurance in a non-judgmental environment. We want your visits to be a comfortable time to ask questions and address health concerns.
From the moment you walk in, you’ll be greeted by our friendly office staff and nurses. Most appointments start with a general health check, including a blood pressure reading and weight check. Depending on the reason for your visit, your provider might perform a pelvic exam, Pap smear, breast exam or other tests.
After your visit, our team will help you schedule follow-up care if needed.
You should go to a gynecologist yearly for an annual screening, as well as if you’re experiencing any female-specific issues or need care for family planning.
Many patients see their OB/GYN for most healthcare needs. But if you have chronic medical conditions, it’s important to have an internal or family medicine doctor as well.
Though your gynecologist can treat a range of conditions, some pelvic, vulvar, pregnancy and sexual health conditions might require more specialized care. Your gynecologist will examine your condition and refer you to the appropriate Atrium Health specialist if needed.
According to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG), it’s best to start seeing an OB/GYN between 13 and 15. Pelvic exams are not usually needed at this age.
