Women’s health care needs are different than those of men. While many aspects overlap, we are learning more about the specific differences in the physiology of men and women. For instance, some conditions are unique to women, like pregnancy, gynecological diseases, menopause and lactation issues. Others are more common in women, like breast cancer, multiple sclerosis, osteoporosis, and incontinence. Several are experienced differently in women than in men, like heart disease, lung cancer and pain. At St. Patrick Hospital’s Women’s Care Center, we are dedicated to providing thorough, compassionate care based on the specific needs of women throughout their lifespan.
The Women’s Care Center is the home of women's services throughout the organization. From the holistic practice approach to care in our clinic, the various clinical services and programs we offer, to the public events in our Celebrating Women Series, we strive to meet the health needs of women with compassion, respect and excellence.
