Gynecology
Routine gynecological care is essential to maintaining women's health. Yearly examinations provide preventive care, and help identify health risks such as breast cancer, cervical cancer and STDs while they are still treatable.
Above and beyond routine care, gynecology appointments also provide birth control information, menopause management, address incontinence and bladder concerns, STD screening and much more. At HWH we have more collective OBGYN experience than any other private practice on the Seacoast.

While maintaining a focus on preventative medicine, our group of practitioners encourage you to be an active participant in any decision involving your health care. We understand that the large amounts of information available today can make these decisions difficult, and our gynecology team is determined to work to help you make the best choices involving your health care. Call us for an appointment or stop by our office for a visit. We’re confident our staff will make you feel welcome and our physicians will provide the high-quality care you deserve.

Convenient Testing & Treatment

To complement our gynecology care and services, we offer testing and treatments which can be conveniently performed in-office.

  • Abnormal Uterine Bleeding

    We utilize oral medications, contraceptive ring, injections and intrauterine devices, endometrial ablations (a minimally-invasive surgical technique to decrease or stop bleeding) as well as the full range of surgical options to treat abnormal uterine bleeding. Our surgeons are skilled and are trained in specific techniques such that even for women in need of hysterectomy, it can almost always be accomplished vaginally or laparoscopically which helps shorten your recovery time and minimize surgical complications.

  • Birth Control

    We offer a full range of birth control options, including pills, IUDs, implants and permanent techniques.

  • Colposcopy

    During a colposcopy, we examine the cervix and vagina with a magnifying device to identify cervical cancer and other cervical abnormalities.

  • Family Planning

    We provide preconception counseling to help you make the right decision about starting a family. We provide preconception counseling to help you make the right decision about starting a family. We’ll go over all your options, whether you are at risk for a difficult pregnancy, and the impact pregnancy and children will have on your life.

  • Hysteroscopy and Operative Hysteroscopy

    This test is often used to determine the source of abnormal bleeding and involves using a scope to view the interior of the uterus. As of 2016, we also offer operative hysteroscopy which allows your gynecologist to not only diagnose but also treat causes of abnormal bleeding in the comfort of our office and minimal discomfort to you.

  • Infertility

    Few things are more stressful than trying to conceive and not being able to. We have a special interest and focus on infertility evaluation and treatment that has been very successful. Our dedication and experience in this area have made many couples’ dreams of having a baby a reality.

  • LEEP

    Using the loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP), we can treat abnormal Pap smears in the office.

  • Menopause and Perimenopause

    Since we consider menopause another exciting stage of life, our therapies and counseling are designed to maximize the benefits and minimize risks and discomfort. The transition to menopause, also called Perimenopause, can take anywhere from six months to ten years and include hot flashes, headaches, dizziness, nausea, and a rapid heartbeat. During this time, the symptoms can be uncomfortable and disrupt your active life. Ask about the many natural ways we can make the change a change for the better. Our natural solutions include supplements, natural hormone therapies, alternative support, menopause counseling, nutrition and exercise support, as well as medicines.

  • Pap Smears and Breast Exams

    We encourage you to have these exams on an as needed basis as recommended by your physician. We can also show you how to correctly perform breast self-exams.

  • Post-Menopausal Symptoms (PMS) and Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PDD)

    If you suffer from these uncomfortable conditions, you owe it to yourself to explore the many new treatment options.

  • Sonohysterography

    We can confirm the presence of polyps and fibroids as well as the size and locations using sonohysterography. We use this information to make the most accurate diagnosis and treatment recommendations.

  • Ultrasound

    Ultrasound has become the key to diagnosing many gynecologic disorders. This modality provides accuracy well beyond that of the traditional pelvic exam thus allowing more conservative and less surgical treatment.

  • Urogynecology

    We specialize in this field and treat pelvic-floor disorders, such as incontinence and prolapse, with the most advanced, minimally-invasive techniques.
