Durham Obstetrics and Gynecology (OB/GYN) South Durham is a warm and welcoming place to seek care.
They offer outstanding health services for women in the Raleigh-Durham area.
You will meet friendly professional obstetricians, gynecologists, and certified nurse-midwives who take care of female patients of all ages from the time of the first gynecologist visits to starting your family and all the years through the various stages of menopause. It is reassuring to have a consistency of care that follows through your entire life as a woman.
Their practice is open Monday to Friday from 8:30 am to 5 pm. Durham Obstetrics and Gynecology has a proactive approach to health, encouraging regular checkups. Every year should you have a well-woman exam, you can expect the following procedures:
-
A physical exam
-
Breast exam, Pap test, and HPV test to check for cervical cancer
-
Birth control advice and sexually transmitted disease screenings will be offered if needed
You can also expect to receive expert follow-up treatment if needed or peace of mind that you have checked your health and well-being and will do so again in another year.
The clinic treats women suffering from abnormal uterine bleeding, fibroids, endometriosis, uterine abnormalities, ovarian cysts, urinary tract infections, and menopause issues.
If abnormal cells show up on your Pap test results, your doctor might recommend the following course of treatment:
-
1: Colposcopy to check your cervix or vulva for precancerous changes
-
2: LEEP (loop electrosurgical excision procedure) to remove abnormal cervical cells
Your doctor might recommend a hysteroscopy for patients with abnormal bleeding to diagnose and treat the causes of abnormal bleeding.
Prenatal care includes confirming the pregnancy, advice on pregnancy care, help to create a birthing plan, and regular checkups with sonograms right through to the birth of your beautiful baby.
The clinic can take care of natural births, high-risk pregnancies, and fertility issues.
For the actual birth, babies are delivered at The Birth Place at Duke Regional Hospital, usually with the same medical staff who have treated you throughout your pregnancy.
Certain cases might be referred to specialists at other locations. Still, Durham Obstetrics and Gynecology (OB/GYN) South Durham is pretty much a one-stop shop for all female medical health care.
Duke Health is linked to most health insurance companies. They recommend you let your insurance company know you intend to seek medical care from Durham Obstetrics and Gynecology (OB/GYN) South Durham in advance of your appointment to double-check you are covered.
The clinic is conveniently located on Crooked Creek Pkwy, with plenty of parking. The facilities are modern with the latest technology, and there is a warm atmosphere felt the moment you walk through the front doors.
