Obstetrics, Gynecology and Patient Care Approach

Depending on the concern, evaluation may include a physical examination, laboratory testing, ultrasound, cervical screening, or procedures such as hysteroscopy or laparoscopy. Georgia Women’s Health Center also describes patient education and preventive care as important parts of its approach.
