GRAND RAPIDS, MI -- Spectrum Health’s new Women’s Health and Wellness Center is designed to make it easier for women to receive a broader range of preventive, specialty, and lifestyle services.
The new center, scheduled to open at the end of August, will offer a wide range of services to meet women’s specific health care needs such as preventative care, nutrition, breast and bone health.
Officials say the 10,000-square-foot center, located at 4069 Lake Dr., will offer the convenience of same-day appointments in a comfortable, relaxing atmosphere.
“We recognize that women don’t always put themselves first when it comes to health and wellness because they are focused on their family’s well-being,” said Suzette Hershman, senior vice president, medical group operations, Spectrum Health West Michigan, in a press release.
“The new Spectrum Health Women’s Health & Wellness Center is designed specifically for women’s health needs, taking into consideration lifestyle factors and the many competing priorities in their lives. Our goal is to make it easy for them to be healthy and well.”
Officials say preventive and wellness exams to address specific needs may take hours to complete, including travel and multiple trips to the doctor. By combining multiple specialty services in one location, women at the center can maximize their visit by being able to schedule a few appointments, making better use of their time.
For example, a woman would be able to schedule her annual wellness exam along with a mammogram and have the option to schedule psychotherapy all on the same day.
Personalized care, including virtual visits, will be tailored for each patient.
The center will also have dedicated spaces for classes on relevant topics such as healthy eating, meditation and managing stress.
An online health and wellness portal will be offered to provide easy access to information regarding women’s health, lifestyle manager tips, and classes among other things.
According to the news release, the inspiration for the center was made possible “by a generous donation from the DeVos families who saw the need and supported program development, research and fellowship training, demonstrating the importance of creating this resource to better meet the unique health care needs of women.‘‘ The amount of the donation was not provided.
The center’s approach and model is designed to be inclusive of all women and does not require a membership.
