Women's health exams include all the “normal” evaluations and tests of a regular physical exam, as well as additional evaluations and tests based on a woman's unique health needs. Women's health needs evolve over time, and Dr. Aziz offers a full range of tests, treatments and health information services to ensure women get the care they need for optimal health at any age.
