Routine Checkups & Prevention Care

At Care for Her under the expert guidance of Dr. Anuja Ojha, we aim to prioritize your health with comprehensive routine check-ups and preventive care services that are specifically tailored for women at all stages of their lives. Our preventive care approach focuses on early detection and prevention strategies to maintain and improve women’s health. Our services include general wellness exams, Pap smears, breast exams, and extensive cancer screenings.

Routine check-ups are needed not only for disease prevention but also for building trust and communication between you and Dr. Ojha. These visits provide you with an opportunity for open dialogue about your health concerns and lifestyle, allowing for more personalized care. Regular wellness exams are crucial as they help identify risk factors and early signs of disease, leading to timely interventions.

Pap smears are a focal point of our preventive care, aimed at detecting cervical cancer or cell changes on the cervix that might become cancerous if untreated. Dr. Ojha adheres to medical guidelines that suggest women aged 21 to 65 should have a Pap smear every three years. This frequency may vary depending on individual health histories and previous Pap smear results.

Breast exams are a crucial part of our care and play a key role in the early detection of breast cancer. While mammograms can spot tumors before they’re noticeable, physical breast exams help identify any changes in texture, lumps, or other irregularities. Dr. Ojha also offers personalized guidance on self-examinations, empowering you to take charge of your health with confidence.

We also provide comprehensive cancer screenings, including skin checks, colonoscopies, and blood tests, to catch potential concerns early. Each screening is carefully recommended based on your age, family history, and personal health background—because preventive care should always be as unique as you are.
