Welcome to the Champlain OB/GYN Blog

This blog will be maintained by the providers at Champlain OB/GYN - it will serve as another way  for us to communicate to patients, and for our patients to communicate with us.  We are excited to have another forum to get information out there to our patients on a regular basis; we will be posting at least weekly, so be sure to check back often! 

Our providers: Maria Carracino, Kara Flaherty, Jack Gallagher, Paula Miner, Sally Stockwell, Callan Janowiec

So often in health care, we are not able to cover many of the important topics we would like to during our short office visits.  The internet has made it possible for people to access health information at any time from their home - which can be a blessing and a curse.  There is so much information available - some of it is reputable, and some is not.  We will regularly post to this blog, bringing you the most up-to-date, reliable sources of health information.  The field of medicine is under constant evolution; new discoveries are made, research advances, studies are published, and technologies improve.  In this ever-growing field, it is our job as your health practitioners to interpret the information and make it available to you so you are equipped with accurate knowledge to best take care of yourself and be as healthy as you can be.

We will cover a wide range of topics including: women's health topics, pregnancy concerns and issues, screening recommendations, nutrition and exercise, and more!  If you have any specific questions that you would like us to post, please leave a comment and we will do our research and answer your question in a future post.  We welcome any questions, concerns, suggestions - this is a way for us to interact with our patients outside of the office visit, and we are hoping it can be a rich dialogue.  Of course confidentiality is important, so please do not post any identifiers, or if you have specific questions about your health you can feel free if contact us at the office for a more in-depth conversation.

Thank you!  For more information, please visit our website.
