General Practitioners

• Pediatric Care
  Growing up, I always knew I wanted to be a doctor. When I was young, I joked with my friends that I was going to be a Neurosurgeon (mainly because it was rumored they made the most money). On acceptance into medical school, I started to ponder more seriously about what specialty of medicine I would truly like to practice. My disposition had people suggesting I go into Pediatrics. This seemed like an attractive line of practice because I do love children. I have a family member who practices Internal Medicine so my attention was also drawn to that path. At that point in time, there were a few things that I WAS sure about – I was not going to be a Neurosurgeon and I was not going to be a Gynecologist. I even told my friends & classmates such.
• Urinary Incontinence
  Frequently throughout my day as I talk with patients we will discuss bladder leakage. I will ask, do you experience any leaking? I often get a response like “Oh, just the normal leaking”. My response is: “Well, leaking isn’t normal! Certainly urinary incontinence is very common and sort of typical, but not normal.” The conversation then proceeds to discuss how impactful the leaking is on the person’s life. Do you avoid things you previously liked to do because of the leaking? Do you wear a pad all day every day? The urinary incontinence process progresses over a long period of time and the patient may not realize what an impact it now has on their life.

Gynecologists

  Health.com has posted a compelling article about a woman who, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, nearly cancelled her ob-gyn exam; one of which the doctor found a small lump which turned out to be cancer.

  Circle of Life Women’s Center in Ogden, Utah was founded December 3, 1999, with a singular purpose in mind: caring for the health and well being of women.

• Labor and Delivery
  The Center traces its roots back to the late 1989 when Dr. Jed Naisbitt, M.D., who had been successfully practicing Obstetrics and Gynecology at what was then known as the Ogden Women’s Clinic, determined to venture out and establish a practice of his own. He had a passion and a desire to eventually develop his new private practice into a comprehensive women’s center. Dr. Naisbitt was already known and respected in the community and thus his practice steadily grew over the next few years. To expand services, Dr. Naisbitt recruited the first midwife in 1996. Over time, additional midwives were integrated into this thriving practice. In order to meet the growing demand for service. Dr. David Bierer, M.D., who had been practicing at the Ogden Clinic, joined forces with Dr. Naisbitt in 1999. The partnership was very natural as these two doctors worked well together and embraced similar patient care philosophies. Together, they grew the practice and founded the Circle of Life Women’s Center in 2000. The conception of the center’s name was born out of their shared desire to provide care for women at every stage of life; supporting women’s health from childbirth to old age.

Radiologist

• Ultrasound
  Are you expecting a new bundle of joy? Do you hydrate enough? We all hear drinking adequate water each day provides essential benefits for our body but it is also invaluable to your unborn baby’s body as well. By drinking 80 – 90 ounces of water within 2 hours before receiving a prenatal ultrasound, the amniotic fluid surrounding your baby increases. This provides for a better opportunity to visualize your baby’s anatomy – up to 35% better! And for the cherry on top – you do not need to have a full bladder for a prenatal ultrasound so pee away!

Physical Therapists

• Physical Therapy
  Bottom line, there are multiple, simple potential remedies for the problem. These include anything from pelvic physiotherapy to medication to surgical correction. These treatments have come a long way in the last decade or so. Pelvic physical therapy is effective in some people. The third and fourth generation medications have minimal side effects. Surgical correction is minimally invasive, extremely effective, and now has minimal discomfort and downtime.
