M Health Fairview is setting women up with the healthcare they deserve
At M Health Fairview, your women’s health care team can help you navigate women’s health care for every stage of life. We collaborate with the most important person on the healthcare team: You.
Here are five things to know about women’s health care at M Health Fairview.
Care is available on your terms.
We know that when concerns come up, you want them addressed quickly. Women’s health providers can offer care with same-day appointments and telehealth visits. Some clinics offer extended hours, so you can get early morning or late evening care. Telehealth visits allow you to have a birth control consultation and get a prescription without a trip to the clinic – unless you need lab work done. You can also get peace of mind by getting tested for sexually transmitted infections quickly.
Schedule your appointments online – even if you’re a new patient. With more than 40 clinic locations in our system, you can pick the time and place that works best for you, from Woodbury to Maple Grove and everywhere in between.
We’re here for you from your first period through menopause.
“Our women’s healthcare team is trained to partner with you through all phases of life,” said Christina Haupt, MHA, women’s and children’s service line director at M Health Fairview. “We use an integrative medicine model that focuses on whole-person care and uses the latest approaches and technology available.”
Come see us for health maintenance and annual gynecologic exams, hormone concerns, and more. If we discover a need for further evaluation, a comprehensive team of specialists is available to help diagnose and treat the issue. Maternal-fetal medicine doctors, OB/GYNs, gynecological surgeons, oncologists, and more will work with you to develop a comprehensive treatment plan to support the best-possible outcomes.

A variety of healthcare providers are available.
Doctors, nurse midwives, physician assistants, and advance practice registered nurses take a whole-person approach to care. Find a women’s health provider who fits your needs. Family medicine obstetrics are family medicine doctors and providers who offer prenatal and obstetrical care. That means you can keep the same care provider through your pregnancy.
“The fact that we have so many options for care for all reproductive needs and general health care needs is a fantastic thing,” said Melissa Hasler, ARPN, CNM, medical director of nurse midwifery practices. “It is unique in the Twin Cities among larger health care systems.”
Nurse midwives are involved in all aspects of maintaining women’s health. They see patients from puberty through age 65. Regardless of your pregnancy plans, women can see a nurse midwife for:
-
Screening for sexually transmitted infections
-
Family planning services
-
Birth control conversations and prescriptions
-
Sexual health concerns
-
Gynecology and breast care
-
Hormonal and development issues
-
Pregnancy and childbirth
If you are planning a future pregnancy or are currently pregnant, we invite you to explore the care options available to you through The Birthplace at M Health Fairview.
We’re here to help – not judge.
