• Have you met your health insurance deductible or most of it?
• Do you have unused funds in your company’s Flexible Spending Account (FSA)?

If you do and you have been postponing elective surgery or are overdue (greater than one year) for your annual well woman exam, then now is the time to act to lower your out-of-pocket costs.  Please call us ASAP (510) 796-7057 and we will do our best to accommodate your request to help you schedule these appointments before the end of the year.  Your flexibility is appreciated and will help us accomplish this goal.

Happy Holidays!

The doctors & staff @ Women’s Health Specialists

We currently have flu vaccine for any of our patients who are interested.  The vaccine is Thimerosal-free (no mercury), so it’s safe for pregnant and breastfeeding women.  Simply call our office 510.796.7057 to schedule an appointment.

We are trying our best to obtain supplies of a special H1N1 flu vaccine.  It will most likely require 2 injections a few weeks apart. Supplies are extremely limited, and while there are other at risk groups who are recommended for immunization, we will need to limit it to pregnant women, because they are at higher risk of complications and it can potentially provide protection to infants who cannot be vaccinated. The CDC estimates that this will be available by mid-October.  Should we succeed at obtaining H1N1 vaccine, we will notify you when we have received it. 

For more information we recomend the CDC website

 You may have lost your job and with it your health insurance.  At Women’s Health Specialists we want to to help you receive health care at a reasonable cost, so we offer a significant discount to people without insurance. So don’t let your annual exam or a female problem go untreated. Call us today and see what we can do to help you get the care you need when you need it.
