1When should I see a specialist obstetrician and gynaecologist?

Obstetricians are frequently the first doctors women see for standard prenatal care. A gynaecologist appointment is advised for annual screening, and any time a woman has concerns about symptoms like pelvic, vulvar or vaginal pain, or irregular uterine bleeding.

2What tests does Dr Tini do?

Cancer screenings, pap tests, pelvic exams, prenatal ultrasounds and diagnosis and treatment of various women’s health conditions are all provided by Dr Tini. Most examinations and tests are done in-rooms during your consultation.

3Do I need a referral to see Dr Tini?

You do not typically need a referral to book an appointment with an OBGYN. However, your doctor may refer you to Dr Tini if you present with women’s health concerns and have not seen a gynaecologist yet, or if you are pregnant.
