Women's Health Mission Statement

The mission of the Women's Health Department at McKinley Health Center is to offer quality care to women by providing preventive care, treatment and management of health related issues, with emphasis on reproductive health.  We empower women through educational and emotional support by providing care in an approachable, caring and professional atmosphere.

Services include routine annual exams and pap smears, contraception, sexually transmitted infection screening and treatment, breast exams and pregnancy options counseling. We also provide colposcopy exams needed for the follow-up of abnormal pap smears, evaluation and treatment of menstrual irregularities, and other health problems and concerns related to women's health. Pelvic ultrasound is available at the discretion of the health care provider. We strive to provide the education that our patients need to make an informed decision regarding their health care.

Birth Control Education Information

Birth Control Education Class is required for those desiring to begin first time use of any hormonal contraception (birth control pills, the patch, the ring or Depo Provera^®) method. It's an excellent opportunity to learn about new methods of birth control available.  Even if you've used birth control pills in the past, you may find the information to be very informative.

If possible, take the class on-line prior to coming in for your women's health exam.  This allows you to talk with your health care provider about the specific method that you're interested in and a prescription can be provided at that visit.
