The Teenage patient

I understand the anxiety for a young woman progressing from Pediatrician to Gynecologist. Being an independent physician allows me to ability to modify the gynecologic exam for teenage patients to meet their comfort level while achieving the same results.  My patients don't even need to get undressed.  I can use abdominal ultrasound to assess the uterus and ovaries in place of a traditional bimanual pelvic exam.  If cultures are needed the patient can be instructed how to collect the sample when I step out of the room.  I go out of my way to make the progression from the pediatrician to the gynecologist as easy and comfortable as possible making the experience as positive as possible so women don't neglect these very important exams for their health.
