An OB/Gyn office visit for a new patient is a first-time visit with an obstetrician-gynecologist, or OB/Gyn, who specializes in female reproductive health, pregnancy, and childbirth. Some OB/Gyns offer a wide range of general health services similar to a primary care doctor. Others focus on the medical care of the female reproductive system. OB/Gyns also provide routine medical services and preventive screenings. This type of doctor has studied obstetrics and gynecology. A new patient office visit is needed if you have never seen this doctor and would be new to the practice, or it has been over 3 years since you last saw this doctor.
