Why Cervical Cancer Screenings Are Important

Cervical cancer often develops slowly and may not cause symptoms in its early stages. Screenings, such as Pap smears and HPV testing, can identify changes in cervical cells long before they become cancerous. Early detection means more treatment options and better outcomes.

At Complete Care Physicians, we focus on prevention, clear communication, and making sure you understand your screening results and any next steps.

What to Expect During a Cervical Cancer Screening

Your screening visit is designed to be quick, private, and focused on your comfort.

Health History Review

We discuss your medical history, sexual health, and any past screening results.

Pelvic Exam

A pelvic exam allows our physicians to check for any visible abnormalities.

Pap Smear

A small sample of cervical cells is collected and sent to the lab to check for changes.

HPV Testing (If Recommended)

For some patients, we may test for high-risk HPV strains that can lead to cervical cancer.

Result Review

We’ll explain your results and, if needed, discuss follow-up care or additional testing.

We live close to 2 hours away and the Doctor saw my daughter for a Physical. I wish we lived closer because this would definitely be her permanent doctor. She was amazing! Loving, nurturing and still very professional.

Dr. Patel went above and beyond during my first appointment at the practice. I left her office feeling like my concerns were heard and validated. With my previous experience of feeling like other doctors were just trying to get me out of their office, this was an amazing experience. I have a very complex case and felt like each one of my concerns was handled in the most appropriate way possible. Will be recommending this practice to anyone in need of care!!
