As your primary healthcare provider, Dr. Madjitey offers expert diagnosis and management for a wide range of common health conditions. Common areas of focus include:
- Pap Smear Abnormalities: If your Pap smear comes back abnormal, it doesn't automatically mean you have cancer, but your OB/GYN will order more tests to find out what's causing the abnormality.
- Gestational Diabetes: Gestational diabetes is a type of high blood sugar that develops only during pregnancy, and your OB/GYN will help manage it to keep you and your baby healthy.
- Encounters for Normal Pregnancies: These appointments track the progress of a healthy pregnancy, addressing any concerns and providing guidance to expecting mothers.
- Acute Vaginitis: Acute vaginitis is a sudden inflammation of the vagina, often causing discomfort like itching and discharge, and an OB/GYN can diagnose and treat the infection.
- Vaginal Yeast Infection: Itching, burning, and unusual vaginal discharge could signal a yeast infection, a condition easily diagnosed and treated by your OB/GYN.
- Coagulation Defects in Pregnancy and Postpartum: Some women have conditions that affect their blood's ability to clot; OB/GYNs provide specialized care to prevent or address problems during and after pregnancy.
- Pregestational Diabetes Mellitus: Having diabetes before pregnancy (pregestational diabetes) needs careful management by your OB/GYN to reduce risks during pregnancy and delivery.
- Uterine Fibroids: Uterine fibroids are muscular tumors that develop in the uterus and can cause a range of symptoms; your OB/GYN is best equipped to diagnose and treat them.
- Yeast Infections: OB/GYNs are experts in diagnosing and treating yeast infections, a common vaginal infection causing irritation and discomfort, often prescribing medication to relieve symptoms quickly.
- Breast Cancer: While not directly treating breast cancer, OB/GYNs often detect early signs through regular exams, enabling early diagnosis and potentially improving treatment outcomes.
- Breast Lump: Finding a lump in your breast can be concerning, but your OB/GYN can perform exams and order imaging tests to diagnose the lump and provide appropriate care.
- Blood Disorders in Pregnancy: Your OB/GYN can identify and manage blood-related problems that may arise during pregnancy, such as gestational diabetes, helping you have a safer delivery.
This list represents some of the common conditions treated. An accurate diagnosis and a personalized care plan can only be developed through a direct consultation with a qualified medical professional.

Here are answers to some common questions about receiving Obstetric and Gynecologic care with Dr. Madjitey:
- What is the difference between an Obstetrician and a Gynecologist?
- An OB/GYN, like Dr. Madjitey, is a physician trained in both obstetrics (pregnancy, labor, and childbirth) and gynecology (overall health of the female reproductive system, including annual exams, infections, and contraception). They provide comprehensive care for women throughout their lives.
- At what age should I (or my daughter) have my first gynecologist visit?
- The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) recommends a first gynecologist visit between the ages of 13 and 15. This first visit is often a conversation to establish a relationship and discuss healthy habits. A pelvic exam is not typically needed unless there is a specific concern or problem.
- I found a lump in my breast. Should I call my OB/GYN?
- Yes. Most breast lumps are benign, but any new lump or change warrants immediate evaluation. Dr. Madjitey will perform a clinical breast exam and order further imaging, such as a mammogram or ultrasound, if necessary.
- My partner and I are having trouble getting pregnant. When should we see a doctor?
- Couples should generally seek a fertility evaluation if they have not conceived after one year of trying (if the woman is under 35) or after six months (if the woman is 35 or older). Dr. Madjitey can perform an initial workup and discuss next steps or referral to a fertility specialist.
- I have very painful and heavy periods. Is that normal?
- Experiencing painful and heavy periods is something we take very seriously. While some cramping is common, severe pain or heavy bleeding that interferes with your daily life is not normal and should be evaluated. These symptoms can be signs of treatable conditions like endometriosis or fibroids, and Dr. Madjitey can diagnose the cause and offer solutions.
- What is the HPV vaccine and who should get it?
- The HPV vaccine is a safe and effective vaccine that protects against the human papillomavirus (HPV), which causes most cases of cervical cancer and genital warts. It's recommended for all preteens, both boys and girls, at age 11 or 12, and can also be given to young adults.
- What is the difference between 3D/4D ultrasound and the regular medical ultrasound?
- Standard 2D ultrasound is the primary tool used to assess fetal growth, anatomy, and well-being. 3D/4D ultrasound provides detailed, photo-like images for keepsake purposes, but is not typically used for medical diagnosis.
- Do you perform gynecological surgery, like a hysterectomy?
- Dr. Madjitey performs a wide range of gynecological surgeries, including hysterectomies, myomectomies, and endometrial ablations. She is skilled in minimally invasive techniques like laparoscopy and robotic surgery, which often result in faster recovery times.
