You have a lot of choices for your health care, including clinicians and doctors who provide primary care for everything from coughs and colds, to heavy periods and pregnancy to menopause and beyond.

• Family medicine – Many women choose to see a family medicine doctor because family doctors care for everyone in your family—from new baby to grandma. They handle everything from preventive screenings to prenatal care, so they get to know you well over time and become familiar with your family’s medical history.
• Internal medicine – Internal medicine doctors focus on caring for adults. They provide a wide range of services, including preventive care and health screenings. They treat conditions specific to women’s health, as well as minor illnesses, injuries and chronic conditions.
• OB-GYNs and midwives– OB-GYNs and midwivesspecialize in women’s health. They can practice within a primary care office or a specialty clinic and provide routine women’s health services and screenings. They also care for you during milestones such as family planning, pregnancy, childbirth and menopause.
• Physician assistants and nurse practitioners – Physician assistants and nurse practitioners provide medical care and are licensed to diagnose and treat illness, manage chronic diseases and prescribe medication for patients.
  

In many of our clinics, family medicine, internal medicine, OB-GYNs, midwives, physician assistants and nurse practitioners all work together. This means you can choose the doctor who is the best fit for you, knowing a whole team is there to support you.

You can get started by making an appointment online.

Or you can also choose a doctor or choose a location to get started.

From skin, to periods and breast health, to nutrition and sleep, each woman is wonderfully unique. The truth is that everyone has a different “normal.” But, if something about your health has changed, we can help you sort it out.

Our primary care doctors and OB-GYNs are trained to care for women throughout all stages of life. Specialists are trained to treat the most complex conditions, especially those that don’t respond to the most common course of treatment. If you need something more, we’ve got the best women's health specialists on our team.

If you need care but can’t make the trip, don’t worry – there’s still several ways to talk to our women’s health specialists. Get care from any device for nutrition and weight management, pre-conception counseling, birth control, UTIs, sexual health, period concerns, menopause, sinus infections, allergies and much more.

With video visits, you can talk to your doctor and get personalized care and treatment – all without leaving home. A video visit includes everything you’d expect in an office visit.

Our 24/7 online clinic, Virtuwell, also treats many common conditions. Board-certified nurse practitioners are available around the clock to learn more about your symptoms and develop a customized treatment plan, day or night.

At HealthPartners and Park Nicollet, you have more choices and more ways to personalize your healthcare than ever before.
