Physician Referral Needed

Description

Colposcopy is a procedure used to assess women with abnormal Pap smears and also for the diagnosis of problems of the lower genital tract, specifically the vulva, vagina and peri-anal area. It is performed by gynecologists with specific training and incorporates a multidisciplinary approach to diagnosis and treatment. Registered nurses provide individual patient education and support.

A state-of-the-art computerized system (GOCIS) is used for charting, follow-up and recording of all results. It ensures standardization, enhances quality control and patient safety and enables prompt communication of results with the referring physician.
