Obstetrics
We offer complete obstetric care encompassing prenatal, delivery and postpartum care. We encourage our patients to be involved in the labor and delivery process.
What to Expect at Your First Appointment
At your initial visit, you will have a complete physical examination, including a pelvic exam. A detailed personal and family medical history also will be taken at that time. Completing the papers from the Welcome Packet prior to your visit will help our staff gather all of the necessary information.
At each visit, including your initial one, we request that you bring your First Morning urine specimen. Please keep it refrigerated until your appointment. We will give you a container to use after your initial visit. We look forward to your first visit at Marion Women’s Health Center!
