If Doctor Eleanor Easley could see Durham Women’s Clinic today, she would be so proud. In 1941 she founded the clinic with Doctor Richard Pearse and she was a source of inspiration for those serving female patients there ever since.
With a focus on holistic care, the clinic with two locations offers professional services covering obstetric, gynecological, and midwifery for women in Durham, Brier Creek, Chapel Hill, Raleigh, Roxboro, and the greater North Carolina Triangle Area.
In any given week, doctors and nurses might treat a teenager with chronic period pain, a woman pregnant with her first child, or a patient in the early menopause stage. The staff is experienced with treating women of all ages and stages of life.
Treating illnesses, offering emotional support and education are all services the clinic provides in a safe and warm environment. Nutrition and mental health counseling, breastfeeding advice, yoga classes, and childbirth education are examples of many of the clinic’s services.
When it comes to women’s health, there is a broad range of issues to cover and the clinic aims to provide help and support wherever it’s needed. They even cover genetic testing and laser treatment for symptoms related to vaginal atrophy. Imagine how impressed Doctor Easley would be with the modern technology in her clinic these days!
