Serving Bethesda, MD · ~4.5 miles from our Kensington office · Telehealth in 12+ states
Gynecology & Women's Health Care for Bethesda
Most of our Bethesda patients come to us looking for an independent practice — not part of a hospital system, with longer appointment slots and the same provider visit after visit.
We're a few minutes north on Connecticut Ave, just past the Beltway. In office in Kensington or via telehealth across 12+ states.
Getting Here from Bethesda
Our office is at 3720 Farragut Ave, Suite 202, Kensington, MD 20895 — roughly 4.5 miles north of downtown Bethesda, just inside the Beltway.
Driving: Most Bethesda patients take Connecticut Ave (MD-185) north — usually 10–15 minutes outside rush hour. From the western side of Bethesda, Old Georgetown Rd → Beach Dr → Connecticut Ave is often the faster route. Coming off the Beltway, take Exit 33 (Connecticut Ave) north and you're a mile out.
Parking: Free on-site lot at our office — no meters, no validation, no garage hunt.
Transit: Two Red Line stations are roughly equidistant from our office — Wheaton (~1.5 mi east) and Twinbrook (~similar distance west). For Bethesda patients, Twinbrook is the easier ride: four stops up the line from Bethesda toward Shady Grove, no transfers, and a short rideshare to our door. If a trip up isn't realistic on a given day, telehealth covers almost everything that doesn't need an in-person exam.
Why Bethesda Patients Choose Us
Bethesda has plenty of OB/GYNs. Here's what we hear most often from patients who switch to us.
Independent, not hospital-owned
We're not part of Suburban, Holy Cross, MedStar, or Hopkins. That means longer appointment slots, fewer system-mandated workflows, and you see the same provider every visit.
Sedation for IUD insertion (and other procedures)
If you've had a rough placement before — or you're avoiding one because of what you've heard — we offer nitrous, oral sedation, IV sedation, cervical block, and TENS. Real comfort options, not 'take an Ibuprofen.'
Modern menopause & HRT care
FDA-approved bioidentical estradiol and micronized progesterone, current NAMS guidance, and we don't dismiss perimenopausal symptoms in your 40s as 'normal aging.'
LGBTQIA+ & gender-affirming care
Gender-affirming hormone therapy, post-surgical care, and routine gynecology that doesn't make assumptions about your body or your partners. Queer-owned.
Same-week appointments are usually possible
Most patients with new symptoms can be seen within a week, not a month. We staff for accessibility on purpose.
Telehealth for follow-ups & refills
If you live in Bethesda but work in DC or travel, follow-ups and refills can happen by telehealth. You don't have to drive up here for a 10-minute conversation.
What Bethesda Patients Come To Us For
Routine gynecology, the full birth control range, menopause care, gender-affirming care, and the procedures most practices around here either don't offer or won't sedate for.
Your First Visit
Book online or call
Same-week appointments are usually available. If you're switching from another practice in Bethesda, you don't need to do anything — we'll request your records.
Intake from home
Forms are filled out through our portal before you arrive, so we're not eating your appointment with paperwork.
We actually talk
First visits are scheduled longer than a typical practice. We get history, walk through what's bothering you, and only do exams or procedures you've consented to that day.
Plan together
We discuss options — labs, imaging, medication, procedures — including what they cost and what your insurance covers. You decide what to do.
Follow-up that fits your life
Most follow-ups can be telehealth. Refills go through the portal. You don't drive up to Kensington for things that don't need an exam.
Insurance & Cost
We accept CareFirst, Anthem, BCBS, Aetna, Cigna, and UHC — the major plans most Bethesda patients carry. Annual preventive visits are covered with no out-of-pocket cost under the ACA. We do not accept Medicaid, Medicare, or Tricare.
[NEEDS INPUT: Bethesda has a lot of NIH / federal-employee FEHB plans, GEHA, and Walter-Reed-adjacent Tricare patients. Anything specific you want to address here — a plan you do or don't take that's common to that crowd?]
Care Worth the Short Drive
Book online — most new patients can be seen within a week. In office in Kensington or via telehealth.
