Women’s Health Services We Offer

At Elora Health and Wellness, we understand the unique health needs of women. Dr. Rookwood provides a variety of services aimed at early detection and management of women’s health issues. Our goal is to ensure your well-being, from preventive care to treatment of acute conditions.

Key Services Include:

• Annual Pap Smears and HPV Testing
  Regular Pap smears help detect early signs of cervical cancer, a serious but treatable condition. During a routine visit, Dr. Rookwood performs the test by collecting a sample of cells from your cervix, which is then sent to a lab for analysis. If abnormalities are detected, further evaluation is done to ensure timely intervention.

• Breast Exams and Mammogram Referrals
  Breast cancer screening is crucial for early detection. Dr. Rookwood conducts thorough breast exams, looking for any unusual lumps, changes in size, or skin texture. Women aged 40 and above are advised to get mammograms annually. Should you need one, we offer convenient referrals to local radiology centers.

• Treatment of Acute Vaginal Conditions
  Conditions like urinary tract infections (UTIs), yeast infections, and bacterial vaginosis can cause discomfort and distress. Dr. Rookwood can diagnose and treat these infections promptly with the right medications to restore your comfort and health.

• STD Testing and Treatment
  Safe and routine STD testing is a vital part of maintaining sexual health. Whether you’re in a monogamous relationship or sexually active with multiple partners, Dr. Rookwood provides confidential and comprehensive testing. If results are positive, treatment options are available to help manage and prevent the spread of infections.

• Family Planning and Contraceptive Options
  Family planning is an important aspect of women’s health. Dr. Rookwood works with you to find a contraception method that fits your lifestyle and health needs. Whether it’s oral birth control, an IUD, or other methods, we ensure you have the information and support to make the right choice.

What Is Women’s Health?

Routine checkups and screenings can help reduce your risk of age-related health problems and improve your quality of life.

Dr. Rookwood recommends that women schedule an annual checkup at Elora Health and Wellness. Regular visits allow for early detection of any potential health issues, enabling faster intervention.
