Gynecology for Bellevue, Redmond
At AFM, our goal is to provide you with a well-rounded suite of services for all your medical needs. As part of this commitment, our Gynecology department embodies care and compassion, whether this entails something as simple as an annual exam, or more in-depth procedures such as operative hysteroscopies.
We do not, however, provide prenatal care. If you are pregnant and you are looking for an Obstetrician to follow you for pregnancy, please look at the websites for Evergreen Healthcare and Overlake Medical Center for Ob care providers. If you are having spotting in early pregnancy, we can see you and evaluate you at AFM to try to determine if the pregnancy is in the correct location and see if you are miscarrying. We do have limited ultrasound services available only on certain days of the week. Please ask about this if you are having early pregnancy complications. Dr. Zabriskie does NOT do prenatal care.
Services we do provide include:
- Annual exams
- Birth control consultations
- Evaluations for abnormal pap smears
- Colposcopies
- Consultations for abnormal bleeding
- IUD insertions
- Gardasil immunizations
- Menopause consultations, including bioavailable hormone prescribing
Dr. Zabriskie is excited to announce that she is now trained to insert the Nexplanon long acting reversible contraceptive for women. This single rod contraceptive hormone is inserted in the upper arm and is good for 3 years. Please contact the office for a consultation with Dr. Zabriskie if you are interested in learning more about this.
