Family Planning/ Contraception

Lifeline Medical Associates physicians can help you make informed decisions about when and if you want children. Understanding your options and planning for the family you want are important aspects of maintaining your health and well-being throughout all stages of your life.

Find A Provider

Why do you need family planning healthcare services?

About half of the pregnancies in the US each year are unintended. When you are better prepared for your pregnancy mentally and physically, you and your baby can get the quality preconception and prenatal care you both need to keep everyone safe and healthy.

Pregnancy spacing is another important aspect of family planning that a physician can help you plan. It’s recommended that pregnancies are spaced at least 18 months apart. Depending on your situation, you may need to, or want to, space your pregnancies even further apart.

If you have decided you do not want to have children, a professional healthcare provider will guide you through your options for birth control. Your physician will get to know you to develop a personalized plan that works for you, keeping in mind your medical situation as well as other factors in your life.

Annual Well Woman Exam

Dr Jones took the time to get to know me. She was very pleasant and has great bedside manners!

Very short wait time, friendly nurses.

The staff was very friendly. I went right into the exam room with no wait. Dr Beim never makes you feel rushed, is very pleasant and informative. You never feel rushed and he always makes sure that all your questions are answered. Highly recommend!

I have been a patient of Lynda Sheppard's for 15 years. This was my first appointment with Dr. Mass. The only part I was disappointed about was waiting 30 minutes after my appointment time to see her. I could clearly tell why that was - she is a very caring doctor and spends time with her patients.

Dr Hope has amazing bed size manners and is very attentive.

Gynecological Problem Visit

Mostly because Dr. Bewtra is wonderful. She's direct but empathetic, gentle in her handling.

Dr. Lewis was caring, listened patiently and addressed my concerns without rushing me through the visit. Wonderful doctor!

Dr. Bell is always so wonderful and takes the time to really understand and connect with her patients.

Pleasant demeanor, prompt, and thorough

Both the intake nurse and Patti Ciranni were attentive, friendly and knowledgeable and listened and responded to all concerns.

Jaime was wonderful very informative would highly recommend

Loren and her staff, especially Amy are always kind, informed and helpful.

Childbirth / Labor & Delivery

Dr. Brenin was excellent throughout my delivery. She had excellent bedside manner, was compassionate, listened to my concerns, was extremely encouraging and laid out all of my options for me to make the best decision possible when things didn't go as planned for me. I couldn't have asked for a better doctor for this experience

Dr. Beauchamp is one of the best doctors I know of. I don't see myself seeing anyone else. Staff are also great.

Everyone was professional, efficient and caring. Thorough process from start to finish.

Emily was interested in my concern and efficient with time. Directed me to next steps.

Obstetrical Appointment (routine)

Sarah listens to her patients and provide great care. Sarah is easy to talk to when unsure of the material. Sadly this was my last visit with her due to the changes in the office dynamics.

Dr Russo is one of the most thorough and caring physicians in the world. He and his staff are professional and courteous, and most importantly, timely

Dr Iammatteo was incredibly thoughtful and gracious as my heavy bleeding resulted in two exam room cleanups. He has been a very instrumental doctor for the females in our family for a very very long time. I was not wanting to hear what he recommended but feel now that it is what is needed so thank you Dr Iammatteo..

While having my annual GYN appointment is not in my top 10 Things I Love To Do, Karen is always professional, easy to talk to, and always ready to give the time needed to discuss concerns and answer any questions I may have.
