Adolescence is the time of onset of menstruation and we are attentive to deviations from the normal process. The gynecology of adolescents is not the same as that of adult women. This field spans the spectrum of development from early puberty and the beginning of breast development to the contraceptive needs of mature young women. We are specifically trained in these many differences and are uniquely experienced in providing care to this age group.

We provide full office gynecology services, including pelvic examinations, Pap smears, testing for sexually transmitted infections, office pregnancy testing, and contraceptive services, including emergency contraception (EC). We are particularly sensitive to our patients’ concerns surrounding these issues.
