Women's Wellness Center

The Women’s Wellness Center located in Medical Arts Building 2, on the first floor offers a comprehensive approach to caring for the everyday woman. The atmosphere of the center is unlike any other health treatment area. The minute you walk in the door, you are greeted with the option of a hot tea or coffee. When you are taken back for your appointment, you are handed a warm plush robe. From full gynecological exams, bone density scans, digital mammography machine and ultrasounds can be performed right in the center. No need to drive out of town for your needs.

Walk-in Appointments Now Available

The Women’s Wellness Center is pleased offer Walk-in Wednesdays for women who need to see a gynecologist, but don’t have an appointment. Patients are seen by Dr. Cynthia Morris or Emily Stephens, C.N.P., for a variety of urgent female issues such as vaginal discharge, STD testing, UTI testing. While annual women’s wellness exams and pap smears are not available, patients may schedule these appointments at their visit.

Walk-in Wednesdays are from 1:00 p.m. - 4:30 p.m. every Wednesday of the month. No appointment needed.

Understanding Menopause

When women reach their 40s and 50s, their menstrual cycles will slow and cease. While menopause is natural, it also produces disruptive side effects that can interrupt the lives of women. These symptoms can be managed a variety of ways—but there's often an emotional and psychological toll to menopause, as well.

That is why, at Fayette County Memorial Hospital, we believe in providing women the resources, support, and guidance they need to not only manage their symptoms but also make a gentle transition to menopause. Our goal is to ensure that our patients have the education and advocacy they need to take on this process and continue to stay active and thriving in their everyday lives.

Women of Change Support Group

Living each day with perimenopausal changes can be a difficult journey and Fayette County Memorial Hospital invites women who are going through menopause to attend a Menopause Support Group. This group, led by our Gynecologist, Dr. Cynthia Morris, will offer you the chance to talk with Dr. Morris as well as other women who are going through the exact same symptoms as you. You will also be educated on how to deal with the symptoms and have opportunities to participate in discussions.

Sessions will give insight on managing symptoms like:

• Hot flashes
• Night sweats
• Mood swings
• Insomnia
• Fatigue
• Reduced sex drive
• Weight gain
• Hair loss
• Osteoporosis
• Depression/anxiety

This FREE event will be held the 2nd Thursday of every month at 7:00 p.m. in Medical Arts Building 2, Women’s Wellness Center, 1st Floor. Please call 740.333.2710 to RSVP or for more information.
