The once-a-year well woman visit is an important part of maintaining your overall health. A well woman visit consists of a breast and pelvic exam and may or may not include a Pap smear test. Our experienced women’s health specialists provide care in a comfortable setting.
Current Pap smear test guidelines from the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists:
- Pap smear testing should begin at age 21
- Women ages 21 - 29 should have a Pap smear test every 3 years
- Women ages 30 - 65 should have a Pap smear test and an HPV test every 5 years (preferred), although it is acceptable to only have a Pap smear test every 3 years
- Women may be eligible to stop having Pap smear tests after age 65 depending on their medical history. Please speak with your women’s health practitioner to discuss your eligibility
Mammograms are available on-site at Bassett Oneonta Specialty Services.
