Women’s health at all ages
When it comes to women’s health, topics that typically get the
most attention include pregnancy and nutrition, but some of
the most prevalent issues women also see their doctors for
include PAP tests, sexually transmitted testing, birth control,
or breast exams.
Mosaic Primary Care Network (MPCN) operates a women’s
health clinic, based at the Mosaic Medical Clinic, which is
designed to provide care for women, regardless if they have
a family doctor; the clinic connects these patients to a family
doctor and medical home.
The women’s health program provides services that include
cervical screening (PAP tests), breast exams, birth control,
sexually transmitted infection (STI) testing and counselling,
menopause education, social work support, and access to
registered dietitians. The clinic also provides prenatal and post-
partum care to women and their families.
Your care coordination and services are provided through
doctors, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, licensed
practical nurses, social workers, registered dietitians, and
support staff.
No matter what your age, it’s important to find a family doctor
or clinic you feel comfortable at and schedule screenings and
regular check-ups.
“I was hesitant to start
using birth control
because I had never
used it before. At my
appointment with the
MPCN women’s clinic,
the nurse and doctor
discussed with me the
benefits and risks of
different types of birth
control and helped me
decide which one was
best for me. I really
appreciated the time they
took to answer all the
questions I had. Now I
see them for all my PAP
tests too!”

“I was having hot flashes
and some abnormal
bleeding, as a result of
menopause. It was very
difficult to sleep at night
and I was exhausted.
When I saw the doctor
at the Mosaic Medical
Clinic, they did some
tests and recommended
a medication to help with
the hot flashes. After
using the medication, I
was finally able to sleep
again. It was such a relief
to talk to someone
who understood my
symptoms and knew
what to do right away.”
