Well-woman exams

A well-woman exam is your yearly check-in for your health. It includes a conversation about your periods, birth control, mood, sleep, and any concerns — plus a breast exam, a pelvic exam when needed, and screenings like a Pap smear. It’s your time to ask questions and to stay ahead of problems before they start.

Pap smears: how often do you need one?

A Pap smear screens for cervical cancer by checking cells from your cervix. How often you need one depends on your age and your history. These are general guidelines — your provider will recommend the interval that’s right for you:

• Under 21: Pap smear screening is usually not recommended.
• Ages 21–29: usually every 3 years.
• Ages 30–65: usually every 3–5 years, with HPV testing options.
• Over 65: usually not needed if your prior results were normal and your risk is low.

Even when a Pap smear isn’t due, a yearly well-woman visit is still a good idea.

Pelvic exams

A pelvic exam lets your provider check your uterus, ovaries, and cervix for anything that needs attention. We explain each step as we go, go at your pace, and stop any time you ask. If you’ve been putting off an exam because of a past experience, tell us — we’ll take extra time with you.

Gentle, private, in one visit

Your visit is private, in a comfortable exam room, with a provider who listens. Care is with Mayrelis Bada, FNP-C, our family nurse practitioner. In most cases your well-woman exam, Pap smear, and labs are all done in that single visit — no extra trips, no extra waiting.

Specimens are sent to Quest Diagnostics for testing, and we review your results with you and explain what comes next.

Frequently asked questions

What is a Pap smear?
A Pap smear is a quick test that collects a few cells from your cervix to screen for cervical cancer and abnormal cells. It takes just a few minutes during your exam.

Does a Pap smear hurt?
Most women feel only mild pressure or brief discomfort. Tell your provider if you’re nervous or have had pain before — we can go slowly and use a smaller speculum.

How should I prepare for my visit?
Try to avoid douching, vaginal creams, and intercourse for 24 hours before your Pap smear, and schedule when you’re not on your period if you can. Bring a list of your medicines and any questions.

Do I need a Pap smear if I feel fine?
Yes, if one is due. Pap smears find changes early, before symptoms appear — that’s the whole point of screening.

What happens if my result is abnormal?
An abnormal Pap smear does not mean cancer. We’ll explain your result, tell you exactly what it means, and arrange any follow-up testing or visits you need.
