CCMH Partners with Organizations for Women's Health
March 23, 2016
CCMH works hard to bring the best care – and variety of care – to our patients. To do so, CCMH has formed partnerships with other organizations to provide specialized outpatient clinics. One such clinic is women’s health and OB/GYN care.
From Hedrick Medical Center, board-certified OB-GYNs Yulia Peniston, D.O., FACOG, and D.J. Clow, D.O., FACOOG, travel to Carrollton the first and third Tuesdays of every month. You will receive comprehensive care from familiar faces too. The nurses and caregivers who support Drs. Peniston and Clow are the same Carroll County Memorial Hospital staffers you’ve known for years.
Dr. Karen B. Song and Certified Nurse Midwives Megan Shepard and Deanna Donnell from Marshall Women’s Care will provide care on a rotating basis the first and third Wednesdays of every month.
This means you’ll have the same doctor caring for you before, during, and after childbirth.
From preventive and prenatal care to menopause treatment and beyond, we deliver the compassionate care women deserve. Access to specialty treatments for a range of conditions affecting women, including menstrual disorders; endometriosis, fibroids, and ovarian cysts; pelvic support disorders; menopausal symptoms; gynecological cancer and urinary incontinence.
