Obgyne

OB-GYNs have numerous responsibilities. This field combines obstetrics—a special area of care that encompasses preconception care through childbirth and delivery—with gynecology, which covers all areas of women’s health. They perform initial diagnoses and prescribe the best treatments possible, and they must explain complex conditions in simple terms. Other duties and responsibilities for OB-GYNs include:

• Diagnosing and treating conditions that affect women, such as certain types of cancer and conditions like menopause
• Working with expecting mothers to explain the childbirth process
• Performing routine checkups with patients
• Providing childbirth and postpartum care for new mothers
