SOUTHSIDE OB/GYN, P.C. is a private practice. We
are unaffiliated with any hospital, however Dr. Gerard, Dr. Dueno, and
Dr. Vazquez have privileges and are on active staff at Memorial Health
University Medical Center.
All deliveries and gynecological surgeries are performed
at Memorial Health University Hospital. Some less invasive procedures
are performed in our offices.
We
have offices at both Savannah and Richmond Hill for your convenience.

Obstetric Services:
All of our doctors manage obstetric patients and deliver babies. We have
on-site ultrasound and fetal monitoring in our Savannah office and fetal
monitoring in our Richmond Hill office. We provide comprehensive
prenatal care with educational materials and counseling for normal
pregnancies. We are happy to answer your questions and fully discuss
your concerns for first time mothers or women who already have had
several pregnancies. Each pregnancy is special and expectant mothers
should feel they are treated with a personalized approach from our
providers and staff members. Our patients labor and deliver at Memorial
Health University Medical Center. We believe these services can provide
the best possible experience during pregnancy and delivery.
Gynecological Services:
Our physicians provide routine gynecological screening as well
as evaluate and treat common and complicated gynecological problems.
These include but not limited to abnormal pap smears, menopause,
abnormal bleeding, pelvic pain, gynecological infections, sexually
transmitted diseases and ovarian cysts. We provide contraceptive
management counseling for birth control pills, patches, insertion of
IUDs, tubal ligations, and contraceptive injections. Common in-office
procedures consist of sonohysterogram, colposcopy, biopsy, and
cryosurgery. More invasive gynecological surgeries such as laparoscopic
assisted vaginal hysterectomy or abdominal hysterectomy, endometrial
ablation, laparoscopy, hysteroscopy, LEEP and dilation and curettage
requiring general anesthesia are performed at Memorial Health University
Medical Center either as a day surgery or inpatient admission.
