Jamestown Regional Medical Center (JRMC) is making education easy for busy moms at the Mention the Unmentionables event on Thursday, Oct. 6.

Women have individual care needs. They are also the heart of their families. Because of this, a woman’s health impacts the health of that family, her work and her life.

“Questions about women’s health can feel embarrassing and they don’t have to,” said OB/GYN Dr. Emily Stromquist. “Mention the Unmentionables is an opportunity for moms to learn about their bodies, especially in their child-bearing years. Above all, women deserve the best.”

MEET THE TEAM

Dr. Stromquist joined JRMC in 2022. She and the OB/GYN team – Dr. Gregg McAdoo and Nurse Practitioner Makenzie Breitbach – offer 24/7 specialty care to women in the region.

The JRMC OB/GYN team will offer education and mention what is often unmentionable – options for birth control, infertility, urinary incontinence as well menstrual and sexual health. Above all, their goal is to empower women. If women have this education, then those women can make the best healthcare decisions for themselves and their families.

“Too often, women aren’t sure what’s going on with their bodies and are too uncomfortable to ask. That can lead to an unpleasant health outcome,” Dr. McAdoo said. “Ultimately, we’d like to alleviate those with free educational opportunities like Mention the Unmentionables.”

Questions are welcome at the event or privately in advance to info@jrmcnd.com.
