What Should I Expect from a Well-Woman Exam?
Our team will start by reviewing your health history and current concerns. We'll ask about your cycle, sexual health, contraception, family history, and any symptoms you may want to address. This helps shape the rest of the visit. Your well-woman examination may include:
- A check of your weight, blood pressure, and heart rate
- A breast exam to check for lumps or changes
- A pelvic exam
- A Pap smear to screen for cervical cancer
- Testing for STIs, based on your age and sexual activity
- Blood work or other screenings, depending on your needs
- Counseling on contraception, hormone health, or family planning
Your provider will explain every step, answer your questions, prescribe any medications, and make sure you feel comfortable throughout the visit.
What Are the Benefits of a Well-Woman Exam?
A wellness exam for women helps keep your health on track year after year. It also allows for early detection of issues and better planning for the future. An annual well-woman exam offers the following benefits:
- Early detection of health conditions, like cervical or breast changes
- Monitoring of chronic gynecological conditions
- Access to personalized contraception options
- Support during hormone changes, menstrual health, and menopause symptoms
- Connection with a provider who focuses on your wellness, not just symptoms
Owen Health Group Reviews
Always a great experience. Fantastic group of professionals.
Everyone from reception, nurses and doctor were very pleasant and attended to every need. ALL questions were answered and so were prayers!!
I LOVE Dr.Jenn because she handles business quickly. Let's be real no woman enjoys having a Pap smear. But, she also takes time to listen to you at every visit, does not act like she knows your body better than you or how you should feel, and she acknowledges when you as a patient are willing to advocate for yourself.
Dr. Jennifer Owen is amazing. The amount of time and attention she gives her patients is by far the most I’ve ever seen. She’s so easy to talk to and I am so thankful she is my doctor!
Everyone has been so kind, thoughtful and positive. I am happy that I made the decision to go to Owen Health group after the retirement of the doctor I had been going to for 34 years! Thank you for making the transition so smooth and stress free!
