Women’s health / OB-GYN
Sun River Health is here to meet the health care needs of all women at any age – lesbian, bisexual, transgender, gender-non-conforming, queer, or straight – regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity.

Annual health / well woman exams are the first step to staying in the best health. An annual exam gives you the chance to ask your doctor about any health concerns you may have. For women and people assigned as female at birth of all ages, your annual exam may include a chest / breast exam, pelvic exam, Pap smear, and other routine health screenings.
Making sure you have your annual exam may help prevent certain kinds of cancer and detect other medical problems. Depending on your age and health history, your doctor will know what kind of screenings you need.
Our sexual and reproductive health care includes information on birth control and safe sex, sexually transmitted infection (STI) screenings (including HIV tests), and Pap and HPV tests.
