You are assured of the highest quality care at Virginia Women's Center, since all our physicians are board certified (or board eligible) in obstetrics and gynecology; our nurse practitioners have advanced education and board certification in women's health. You'll note that many of our providers have voluntary advanced degrees in fields of specialty or interest. Also, please note that our physicians deliver only at the location where they see patients.

  • What’s the difference between a nurse practitioner and a physician?
    Women's health nurse practitioners are specially trained and board certified in obstetrics and gynecology. They collaborate with physicians to provide services that include the following:

    • Care before and after menopause
    • Contraceptive care
    • Evaluation and treatment of common vaginal infections
    • Health and wellness counseling
    • Midwifery
    • Physical exams, including Pap smears
    • Pregnancy testing and care before, during and after pregnancy
    • Screening and referral for other health problems
    • STD screening and follow-up

    See what our nurse practitioners are saying.

    Women with medical conditions, especially those that require surgery, need the services of a physician. But when women have typical health care needs, a nurse practitioner can serve as their health care provider.
