LONGTIME OB-GYN SPECIALIST HAS QUESTIONS TO WOMEN’S
QUESTIONS
A woman preparing for her first –
or her 31st – visit to a gynecologist is advised to arrive prepared
with a set of questions, as part of an increased awareness on the need for improving
the patient-physician relationship.
The result, according to one Obstetrician & Gynecologist, is a more confident patient and an active partner in
maintaining her personal health and emotional well-being.
Dr. Chawki Nahabet, who has dedicated the past
25 years to women’s health as a board-certified Obstetrician & Gynecologist,
recently developed a series of questions on various gynecological procedures,
to aid women in their quest for knowledge and self-empowerment.
“I realized that many of my patients did not know
the right questions to ask me,” said Dr. Nahabet, whose website (http://www.questionstomygynecologist.com/)
is aimed at arming women with the right questions and for the right reasons.
:My patients, and all women, need a guide, a series
of fundamental questions to ask their gynecologist,” Nahabet said. “Until now,
these questions have been missing and are not found on the web.”
Anyone can tap the Internet for vast reservoirs of
data – not, however, always reliable. What Nahabet is offering is a wealth of information
from a man whose lifework is ensuring that women take an active role in
managing their personal gynecological health.
It was Nahabet’s wife who suggested that her
husband compile a list of questions pertaining to specific gynecological issues
and procedures, such as infertility, tubal ligation and hysterectomy.
He answered the call, and came up with checklists
pertaining to these and other procedures, each with no less than 75, and as
many as 150, questions women are encouraged to consider in meeting with their
doctors.
Nahabet has made available questions covering a
dozen topics, from Hysterectomy Questions, Tubal Ligation Questions to Infertility Questions, through his website, e-FREE
