About Us
Experts in Women's Sexual Medicine
Interruptions in women’s sexual health can affect the relationships that are most important to you and affect your ability to enjoy a better quality of life.
Too often women find that these problems are ignored or that there are inadequate resources available to help them. At the Sexual Medicine and Wellness Center at Methodist Physicians Clinic Women's Center, we are uniquely focused on the issues of sexual health faced by women and their partners.
Our people are highly educated and experienced in these issues and are able to establish the kind of connections with clients that make the entire experience more comfortable and more successful for them.
What's more, we enjoy a reputation among our own peers and are members of some of our specialty's leading professional organizations, including American Association for Sexual Educators, Counselors and Therapists.
