Taking proactive steps is central to long-term health. Dr. Jamie Nahmias offers a range of key preventive screenings and services designed to provide crucial insights into your health and support your well-being:

• Fetal Ultrasound: Protect your baby's health by scheduling regular fetal ultrasounds; this important screening tool helps identify potential issues early on, optimizing your chances of a successful pregnancy.
• Gynecologic Cancer Screening: Regular gynecologic cancer screenings help detect cancers like cervical, ovarian, and uterine cancer early, when they're most treatable.
• Vaginal Prolapse Surgery: For women experiencing pelvic organ prolapse symptoms, vaginal prolapse surgery is a surgical option to correct the condition and improve physical well-being.
• Syphilis Screening: Early detection is key to managing syphilis, a serious infection. A syphilis screening provides peace of mind and facilitates prompt treatment if needed.
• Bacteriuria Screening: Protecting your urinary system is easier with a bacteriuria screening; this test helps find bacteria that may indicate a UTI, enabling early intervention and preventing complications.
• Sexually Transmitted Infections Screening: Protecting your sexual health is key; STI screenings identify infections so you can get the care you need and avoid complications.
• Destruction or Excision of Lesion of Cervix (incl. LEEP): This helps detect and remove abnormal cervical cells identified during a Pap smear or HPV test, significantly reducing your cancer risk.
• Nuchal Translucency Screening: By getting a nuchal translucency screening, you can gain valuable information about your baby's health and make informed decisions about your pregnancy.
• Myomectomy: If you experience heavy menstrual bleeding or pelvic pain due to fibroids, a myomectomy is a surgical option to remove them, improving your comfort and well-being.
• Hysteroscopy: To help maintain your reproductive well-being, a hysteroscopy allows for the detection of uterine abnormalities, often allowing for early intervention and preventing more invasive procedures later on.
• Excision of Cervix: This procedure involves the surgical removal of abnormal cervical tissue to eliminate the risk of developing cervical cancer, ensuring a healthier and safer reproductive future.
• Vaginal Delivery and VBAC: Planning your delivery method, whether vaginal delivery or a VBAC (vaginal birth after cesarean), empowers you to make informed choices for a safe and healthy birth experience.
