Preventive Care

Wellness Exams (often called a preventative care exam or annual exam) are an important part of keeping you healthy. What happens during your visit depends on your age, sexual history, and medical history. 

Breast and chest exams can help detect breast cancer early. During a breast/chest exam, your doctor will check for lumps and other problems, and can recommend further testing if needed.

Pap tests are used to check for abnormal cells on the cervix. Pap tests are routine tests that your doctor will recommend based on factors like age and past test results. 

STI testing is a regular part of taking care of yourself and your partner(s). Anybody who has sexual contact with another person (vaginal, anal, oral sex, or genital skin-to-skin contact), should talk with a provider about getting tested. It's quick and easy. 

Birth control can make periods more manageable and can help prevent pregnancy or STIs. There are lots of different birth control options out there. We’re here to help you figure it all out.

The HPV (human papilloma virus) vaccine helps protect you against various strains of HPV that cause most cases of cervical cancer or genital warts.
