February 07, 2010 @ 12:00 AM

RUSSELL, Ky. -- The Our Lady of Bellefonte Hospital (OLBH) Women's Center began offering gynecological services at the center Feb. 1.

The addition of gynecological services was possible because of a joint arrangement with Bellefonte Women's Care, at 2001 Winchester Avenue. Bellefonte Women's Care will provide staff to the Women's Center located at Bellefonte Centre, at 1000 Ashland Drive.

Bellefonte Women's Care nurse practitioner Sabrina Brown, ARNP, is seeing patients at the OLBH Women's Center and will offer annual gynecological screenings and well-woman screenings.

The Bellefonte Women's Center offers digital mammography for improved efficiency and faster turn around times, the presence of a surgeon, clinical breast examinations, breast ultrasound, surgical consultations, minimally invasive breast biopsy, a DEXA densitometer to screen for bone density and a full-time nurse practitioner to serve as the center's "nurse navigator" to guide patients through the process.

The center also has a retail boutique for prosthesis, wigs, bras and other items, a clinical trials office for patients requiring genetic testing or enrollment in a clinical trial and a women's health learning library.
