Women’s Health and Wellness Services

Health and Wellness

Women’s healthcare is for all females of reproductive age or older. If you are healthy and symptom-free, Dr. Hessel can help keep you that way with periodic screenings, immunizations, and advice for healthy living. Keep in mind that sometimes underlying health problems present no symptoms at all; so it is important to schedule a wellness exam each year.

Well Woman Visits

The components of your visit will vary according to your age. Young women, for example, require annual pap smears, pelvic exams, breast exams, and possible immunization against HPV. Ladies over age 25 may begin to get pap smears less frequently, although they will begin mammogram screenings by age 40. Dr. Hessel will also speak with you about your health concerns, risk for certain diseases, and contraception needs if applicable.

Nutrition and Lifestyle Coaching

Dr. Hessel is committed to helping you take care of your emotional health along with your physical health. If you are stressed or anxious this can directly affect your physical well being. Patients who need to make important lifestyle changes such as quitting smoking, eating better, and exercise have turned to Dr. Hessel for assistance with tremendous success.
