Obstetricians Providing Pregnancy & Women's Health Care in Troy & Rochester Hills, MI Since 1998
Since 1998, Oakland Macomb OBGYN has been providing kind and compassionate care for women of all ages in the Troy and Rochester Hills, MI areas. Our two campuses employ doctors and midwives offering all the services women need in their childbearing years and beyond.
Pregnancy, Postpartum, and Preventive Services
Oakland Macomb OBGYN provides so much more than just typical obstetrics services. We seek to empower and educate all women and allow them to take control of their own health with a variety of preventive care measures to help them achieve optimal health:
Pap smears:
Women ages 21 to 65 should ideally receive a pap smear screening every 3 years for early detection of cervical cancer. Your doctor can help you decide what frequency is right for you.
STI testing:
All sexually active women should get regular STI tests for fast and effective detection and treatment. Talk to your doctor if you would like more information about these tests.
Pelvic exams:
Commonly performed during pregnancy to assess the health of both mother and child, pelvic exams are also useful in detecting abnormalities such as STIs and ovarian cysts.
Ultrasounds:
This diagnostic imaging tool uses soundwaves to produce images that help your doctor understand more about your health concerns. Obstetricians also use ultrasounds to view unborn babies and ensure that development is on track.
Blood work:
Obstetricians perform blood tests before and during pregnancy to check the health of the mother and stay aware of potential complications. The vast majority of problems during pregnancy are best treated with early detection.
What To Expect
When you visit Oakland Macomb Obstetrics & Gynecology, you will immediately notice our commitment to providing quality care for all women. Every member of our team was carefully chosen based on a shared passion for the work we do. We recognize that the needs of every woman are different, so we employ doctors, midwives, and nurse practitioners from many backgrounds to help each patient receive relevant and informed care. Both OBGYNs and certified nurse midwives can provide basic care before, during, and after pregnancy, but their education and focus is slightly different. CNMs are nurses who complete a graduate program in midwifery and are actively involved in the pregnancy and childbirth processes, allowing for an increased level of comfort in low-risk pregnancies. OBGYNs complete 4 years of medical school as well as a 4-year residency, giving them the level of medical experience required to anticipate and treat higher-risk pregnancies. Both are able to perform most of the tasks you may need, so if you have concerns or a personal preference, our obstetrics team is happy to provide the information you need to make an informed decision. Our nurse practitioners and physician’s assistants work alongside our OBGYNs and midwives to provide supportive aid when necessary.
