Women’s Health Care

As a woman, you have unique health care needs and it is important to have a women’s care provider you can trust. At Vanguard Medical & Aesthetic Clinic in Calgary, AB, we provide a variety of services at our women’s health clinic. Women’s wellness is one of our special focus areas, and providing compassionate, thorough, and understanding care for women of all ages.

Services offered at our women’s health center

There is more to women’s health than just your annual well-woman exam, though that is an important part of your overall care. The women’s health services we provide include, among others:

  • Annual exams, including PAP smears or other testing to ensure you are healthy
  • Consultations on birth control, including a discussion of which options might work well for you and procedures such as IUD insertions or removals
  • Gynecological exams if you are experiencing any abnormal symptoms or issues
  • Breast exams as part of your well-woman exam or if you find any abnormal lumps or irregularities
  • Sexually transmitted infection diagnosis and treatment
  • Prenatal health care to monitor the health of both you and your developing baby during pregnancy

Our entire medical team is dedicated to serving you and listening to your concerns. We understand that no two patients are alike and therefore, the option that is best for one patient is not the right treatment for another. We take the time to discuss all your options for diagnosis and treatment when the need arises and are happy to answer all your questions.
