A proactive approach to health involves understanding and managing potential risks. Dr. Samuel Falzone provides expert care for a range of conditions, focusing on early detection and effective management to support your long-term wellness. Common areas of focus include:

• Abdominal Pregnancy: Regular prenatal checkups are crucial for detecting abdominal pregnancy early, preventing potentially life-threatening complications for both the mother and the developing fetus.
• HPV (Human Papillomavirus): While some HPV infections are harmless, regular checkups allow your doctor to monitor for high-risk types, allowing for intervention and preventing potentially life-threatening diseases.
• Yeast Infections: Preventing yeast infections involves practicing good hygiene and recognizing early symptoms like itching and discharge to avoid discomfort and potential complications.
• Miscarriages: Managing pre-existing conditions like diabetes or thyroid issues before and during pregnancy can lessen the likelihood of miscarriage.
• Encounters for Normal Pregnancies: Even in normal pregnancies, consistent monitoring can help spot potential issues early and prevent complications that might arise later.
• Sexual Orgasm Disorders: Addressing sexual orgasm disorders proactively through open communication with your healthcare provider can prevent relationship strain and improve intimacy.
• Chlamydia Infections: Chlamydia is a common STI, but early detection through routine screenings significantly reduces the risk of serious complications like ectopic pregnancy.
• Uterine Carcinoma: Understanding your risk factors for uterine cancer, such as age and family history, empowers you to make informed choices about preventive screenings and lifestyle adjustments.
• Genitourinary Tract Infections in Pregnancy: Managing genitourinary tract infections promptly during pregnancy lowers the risk of premature labor and other pregnancy complications.
• Preeclampsia: Regular prenatal visits allow healthcare providers to monitor for signs of preeclampsia, enabling timely interventions to prevent severe complications such as seizures or premature birth.
• Trichomoniasis: Untreated trichomoniasis can lead to serious health problems, so getting tested regularly and seeking prompt treatment is essential for maintaining your well-being.
• Ectopic Pregnancy: Understanding the signs and symptoms of an ectopic pregnancy, such as abdominal pain and irregular bleeding, allows for timely medical intervention, preventing more serious consequences.

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

• Pap Smear: Invest in your well-being with a routine Pap smear; it's a simple procedure that screens for cellular changes in your cervix, leading to early diagnosis and intervention if needed.
• Genetic Screening for Breast Cancer: Understanding your family history isn't enough; genetic testing provides a more precise assessment of your personal breast cancer risk, allowing for tailored management.
• Vaginosis Screening: Don't wait for symptoms – proactive vaginosis screening helps identify and address bacterial imbalances in your vagina, keeping you feeling your best.
• First Trimester Screening: Ensure your baby's well-being with first trimester screening—a combination of tests that check for potential genetic issues and chromosomal abnormalities during the critical early stages of pregnancy.
• Salpingo Oopherectomy: If you are at high risk for ovarian or fallopian tube cancer, a salpingo-oophorectomy is a surgical procedure that can be considered as a proactive step to significantly reduce your cancer risk.
• Endocervical Curettage: As part of your preventive health plan, an endocervical curettage may be recommended to help your doctor accurately diagnose and treat any abnormalities found on your cervix.
• Salpingectomy: Taking charge of your reproductive health, a salpingectomy is a surgical option to remove your fallopian tubes, lowering your chances of developing ectopic pregnancies and some ovarian cancers.
• Syphilis Screening: Regular syphilis screenings are a vital part of comprehensive women's healthcare, enabling early diagnosis and minimizing the risk of serious complications.
• Excision of Cervix: To prevent the progression of abnormal cervical cells to cancer, excision of the cervix is a surgical procedure to remove these cells and maintain your overall health.
• Hysterectomy: In cases of severe uterine prolapse or other pelvic organ prolapse conditions, a hysterectomy can be part of a comprehensive treatment plan to restore pelvic support and alleviate symptoms.
• Pregnancy Ultrasound: Protect your baby's health with a pregnancy ultrasound; this imaging test allows for early diagnosis of birth defects and other potential problems.
• Destruction or Excision of Lesion of Cervix (incl. LEEP): Protecting your long-term health, this treatment involves carefully removing suspicious tissue from the cervix to stop potential progression to cervical cancer.
