Do you ever wonder if cranberries really prevent UTIs? When should you see a high-risk pregnancy and maternal-fetal specialist? What is the big deal about BRCA or COLARIS testing?
And what do physicians have to do with Habitat for Humanity?
If you have questions about women’s health issues or want to keep abreast of all of the great things happening in our community, then you’ll want to subscribe to the Virginia Women’s Center blog where current, reliable information is always fresh and available.
For more than 40 years, Virginia Women’s Center has specialized in women’s health issues and delivering babies. Over the years, services and the staff have expanded to offer Richmond some of the best available healthcare services and information for women. They are changing and saving lives every day with annual mammograms, nutrition counseling, mental health counseling, high-risk pregnancy management, and more.
The center’s mission is to provide lifetime support and compassionate obstetrical and gynecological care. They advance their practice wherever possible and where it benefits women and the community. And they always offer convenient access to other services to complement their care options.
Virginia Women’s Center recently made a generous donation to Hanover County Habitat for Community in response to housing needs. They donated 1.8 acres of land to help with housing. They not only provide optimal women’s healthcare services, but they are committed to the community in many ways.
Practice Administrator at Virginia Women’s Center, Brenda Burgess, said, “As a practice, we were familiar with Hanover Habitat for Humanity and the life-changing work that they do; we are thrilled to be able to partner with them.” Burgess noted that the gift of land has special significance as one of Virginia Women’s Center’s locations, in the Medical Office Building at Bon Secours Memorial Regional Medical Center, is right around the corner from the land on which the Goodman’s home will be built. Since 1993, Virginia Women’s Center has provided much-needed health care to the women of Hanover County. As Burgess remarked, “We are now excited to be able to further respond to the needs of Hanover County by partnering with Hanover Habitat for Humanity and working together to invest in the community where we serve.”
Virginia Women’s Center is a full-service women’s health care provider specializing in obstetrics, gynecology, urology, high-risk obstetrics, obstetrical genetic counseling, ultrasound, mammography, bone health, psychology, nutrition and clinical research.
