Primary Care
Dr. Abraham Fisher is the most qualified, calm, intelligent, caring, and thorough doctor I have ever had. I cannot thank him and the staff at Women’s Health for their undivided attention, thoroughness, compassion, and informative explanations throughout the years! I have had zero luck with any other doctors and I only wish they’d open a primary care wing because their business is the highest quality I’ve ever seen. Dr. Fisher has seen me through 3 pregnancies – two difficult – multiple surgeries and procedures, all with a calm and helpful demeanor. I cannot express enough how grateful I am that he has been my obgyn for over 20 years!
Family Practice
Constipation
Immunizations
Your annual wellness exam may also include information on which vaccinations are recommended based on your age and risks. These can include the flu shot, Tdap, and human papilloma virus (HPV).

Gynecology
Dr. O’Connor has practiced obstetrics & gynecology in Worcester since 1992 and we were delighted to have her join Women’s Health of Central MA in 2010.

Endometriosis
[Dr. Fields] was extremely personable and easy to talk to, and made me feel very comfortable and “heard.” She listened to all of my history and concerns with an open mind. I never felt rushed. I have a long history with endometriosis and its fun comorbidities. And while I do have a specialist in Boston, I wanted someone close to home to rely on for my other needs. Dr. Fields was not pushy about medications for my endo, and even knew of my specialist. I feel like I have someone who is on my team now, and that gives me peace of mind. She also gave me the most gentle exam ever after I told her I have a history with pelvic pain. All in all I was in and out of there in less than an hour!
Pelvic Pain
Pregnancy
How often you see your doctor depends on whether you have a high-risk pregnancy. Usually, prenatal visits are scheduled...
Labor and Delivery
Tubal ligation can be done at any time. Very commonly it is performed after vaginal childbirth by making a small incision at your umbilicus (belly button). It can also be performed during a Cesarean delivery without any additional incisions. In both of these procedures, a portion of the tube is removed. For women who want this procedure done at a time other than at childbirth, it can be performed minimally invasively using a laparoscope. A small incision is made in your umbilicus and a camera is placed through a thin tube into your abdomen. Then, a second incision is made above your pubic bone and a ring or clip is placed around the tube.

Cervical Cancer
Cell changes on the cervix can lead to cervical cancer if not found and treated. With early detection and treatment, cervical cancer can almost always be prevented – which is why having regular Pap tests is so important.

Thyroid

Ultrasound
Ultrasound (also called sonography) is a safe and painless way for your doctor to see inside your body without using radiation (such as in x-rays). Obstetric ultrasound provides pictures of an embryo or fetus inside your uterus, as well as of your uterus and ovaries – so it’s a valuable tool for monitoring your pregnancy and unborn baby.
Radiology
The American Cancer Society guidelines recommend yearly mammograms beginning at age 40. (Hologic 2011. Accredited by the American College of Radiology- License #M383)
X-Rays
Mammography
Women’s Health has been providing patients with state-of-the-art digital breast imaging since the fall of 2007. In March of 2012, Women’s Health moved forward with the next generation of technology for breast cancer detection, “Selenia Dimensions,” the first commercially available tool to deliver on the extraordinary promise of breast tomosynthesis – also known as “ 3D Mammography.”
Chemotherapy
You may need to get a Pap test more often if you’ve had treatment for abnormal Pap test results or cervical cancer in the past, you’re HIV-positive, your mother was exposed to diethylstilbestrol (DES) while pregnant, or your immune system is weakened because of organ transplant, chemotherapy or steroid use.

Minimally Invasive Surgery
In-office surgery for menstrual disorders and sterilization, including minimally invasive surgery via laparoscopic and robotic surgical techniques. Operative hysteroscopy as well as management of uterine fibroids, pelvic pain, abnormal pap smears and menstrual disorders.

Hysterectomy
Working with Dr.Amir Mehdizadeh has been nothing but a pleasure. At 29 years young, opting in for a hysterectomy to help with my current issues, he has been nothing but supportive and informative about my choice. He hasn’t pressured me to steer away from this decision but has made sure to explain other options as well. He did great with my D&C and looking forward to my hysterectomy. He is very kind and has a warm energy. Very happy to be seeing him.
Endometrial Ablation
Women’s Health offers one type of ablation: Novasure balloon ablation, which can be performed in the office for women suffering from excessive menstrual bleeding. This procedure is only recommended for women who have completed childbearing. Discuss your options with your healthcare provider.
Laparoscopy
There is also a brand name of a type of sterilization called Essure®. Essure® does not require a laparoscopy and may be performed as an in-office procedure. This procedure involves inserting a camera into your uterus and placing small titanium springs into the fallopian tubes; the tubal tissue grows through the springs and blocks them.

Skin Cancer

Comparison of 2 monoclonal antibodies for immunohistochemical detection of BRAF V600E mutation in malignant melanoma, pulmonary carcinoma, gastrointestinal carcinoma, thyroid carcinoma, and gliomas. Human Pathology. 2013;44(11):2563-70. doi: 10.1016/j.humpath.2013.06.018.
Lesions
This is because the Pap test only screens for cervical cancer, not other conditions like sexually transmitted diseases, endometrial and ovarian cancer, or fibroids. Your doctor still needs to examine you to make sure there are no lumps, bumps, or lesions that shouldn’t be there. And you should still have an annual breast exam.
