Women require specialized health care that can address potential medical conditions that can impact their sexual health and fertility. At Elite Health Center and Family Care in Lakeland, FL, we provide comprehensive OBGYN care for women of all ages, so they can receive the expert healthcare they need for every stage of their life.

How do I choose a good OBGYN?

The first step in choosing your OBGYN for most patients is to check with their insurance provider to see which doctors in their area are covered by their healthcare plan. It is also essential to find a board-certified provider because it ensures they have met and surpassed the highest standards in their chosen field. Most importantly, it is imperative that you find an OBGYN with whom you feel comfortable. Your intimate healthcare needs often require conversations that may otherwise be embarrassing or uncomfortable, so it is absolutely necessary that you find an OBGYN with whom you can be open and honest, thus ensuring you receive the best possible care.

How soon do I need to see a doctor if I’m pregnant?

Women who are pregnant should schedule their first prenatal appointment as soon as possible, so your OBGYN can begin working with you to develop a prenatal plan to ensure the health and well-being of both you and your new baby. Even if you have taken an at-home pregnancy test, scheduling an appointment with your OBGYN can verify your results and help you determine your due date. Your first prenatal appointment is also important for your doctor because it allows them a chance to get to know you and understand your health history. Your first prenatal appointment is also a great time to discuss prenatal nutrition and ask any questions you may have about symptoms you are experiencing.

What’s the difference between an OBGYN and a gynecologist?

A gynecologist is a doctor who has undertaken specialized education and training in order to provide care for women and their reproductive health. An obstetrician specializes in the treatment of pregnant women, as well as the delivery of their babies. An OBGYN offers comprehensive care for women who are and are not pregnant. For many women who wish to become pregnant in the future, but who are not ready to do so yet, seeing an OBGYN for their gynecological needs will help them build a relationship with the doctor who will one day guide them through pregnancy and childbirth.

Can I see an OBGYN for newborn care?

Yes. An OBGYN doctor, family physician, or nurse practitioner at Elite Health Center & Family Care can provide you with all of the information and care you need during pregnancy to ensure the health of both you and your baby, and they can make an excellent healthcare partner after your baby is born. Your primary OBGYN may deliver your newborn and provide you with follow-up care to monitor your recovery following childbirth. However, an OBGYN is not the same doctor who will provide your baby with the essential newborn health monitoring and care they need to thrive. Many OBGYNs, however, can recommend exceptional pediatricians who they have worked with in the past, if you do not know where to start searching for a doctor for your new baby.
