Since its founding,
Deaconess Medical Center has been committed to addressing
the special health concerns of women and children.
Childbirth Services
At Deaconess Medical Center, where thousands
of babies are born every year, our experienced and supportive
nursing staff, certified nurse midwives and
physicians strive to make every family's childbirth experience
as rewarding as possible, while providing the specialized
expertise and technology to give the newest family member
the best start in life.
Breast Evaluation Center
The Deaconess Breast Evaluation Center is dedicated to the early detection of breast cancer. We provide one-on-one personalized care and from check-in until the completion of the exam, patients can generally expect to spend only 30 minutes.
The Breast Evaluation Center offers a full array of diagnostic services such as state-of-the-art digital mammography, stereotactic biopsy, ultrasound imaging cyst aspiration, fine needle aspiration, ultrasound guided core biopsy, stereotactic core biopsy and ductography. Same day appointments are welcome.
Cardiovascular Wellness
The experienced cardiac team at Deaconess
Medical Center offers a broad range of services for
women who have or are at risk for coronary heart disease.
Osteoporosis Screening
Post-menopausal women are at risk for
osteoporosis, a bone-thinning disease that can result
in debilitating fractures. To diagnose osteoporosis at
an early, treatable stage, Deaconess Medical Center offers
a non-invasive, painless screening examination called
bone densitometry.
Women's Clinic
The Deaconess
Women’s Clinic provides
care for women, by women. It is unique in that
all of the providers are certified nurse midwives (CNMs)
who care for women throughout their lifespan, from adolescence
to post-menopause.
