As your primary healthcare provider, Dr. Mott offers expert diagnosis and management for a wide range of common health conditions. Common areas of focus include:
- Vaginitis or Vaginosis: Vaginal infections like vaginitis and vaginosis can be effectively diagnosed and treated by an OB/GYN through examinations and sometimes lab tests.
- Cervical Incompetence: If your cervix opens too soon during pregnancy, leading to a risk of miscarriage or premature delivery, you may have cervical incompetence, a condition effectively managed by an OB/GYN.
- Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STDs): Your OB/GYN plays a key role in managing STDs, offering testing, diagnosis, treatment plans, and advice on safer sex practices to reduce your risk.
- Rectovaginal Fistula: Rectovaginal fistula is a hole that develops between the rectum and vagina, leading to stool leakage; your OB/GYN can help assess the issue and guide your treatment plan.
- Menstrual Disorders: Your OB/GYN is the right doctor to see if you're experiencing problems with your period, like changes in flow, frequency, or pain, as they can help manage your menstrual health.
- Uterine Fibroids: These benign tumors in the uterus, called fibroids, can lead to problems with periods and fertility, and an OB/GYN can help manage them.
- Mastodynia: OB/GYNs are skilled in managing mastodynia, helping women understand the potential causes of their breast pain and providing relief through medication, self-care techniques, or further investigation.
- Symptomatic Menopause: Symptomatic menopause means experiencing bothersome physical or emotional symptoms as your periods stop, and an OB/GYN can help manage these symptoms with treatments like hormone therapy or lifestyle changes.
- Pregestational Diabetes Mellitus: Your OB/GYN is your partner in managing pregestational diabetes, providing care to minimize complications during pregnancy and childbirth.
- Breech Position: Your OB/GYN will assess if your baby is in a breech position, where it's positioned feet or buttocks-first, and recommend the best delivery plan.
- Multiple Gestation: Multiple gestation pregnancies require specialized care, and an OB/GYN will provide comprehensive support, monitoring for potential complications and preparing for the births.
- Uterine Cancer: OB/GYNs are key in detecting and managing uterine cancer, a type of cancer affecting the womb, through screenings, treatments like surgery and chemotherapy, and monitoring.
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. Mott:
- What is the difference between an Obstetrician and a Gynecologist?
- An OB/GYN, like Dr. Mott, is a physician trained in both obstetrics and gynecology. A gynecologist focuses on the overall health of the female reproductive system, including annual exams, infections, and contraception. An obstetrician specializes in pregnancy, labor, and childbirth. Dr. Mott provides 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 initial visit is often a conversation about healthy habits and establishing a relationship with a provider, and a pelvic exam is not typically required unless there is a specific concern.
- What are my options for birth control?
- Birth control options include hormonal methods like pills, patches, and rings; long-acting reversible contraceptives (LARCs) such as IUDs and implants; barrier methods like condoms; and permanent options like tubal ligation. Dr. Mott will discuss your lifestyle and health to help you choose the best method for you.
- I have very painful and heavy periods. Is that normal?
- While some cramping is common during menstruation, severe pain or heavy bleeding that interferes with your daily life is not normal. These symptoms could be signs of treatable conditions like endometriosis or fibroids. Dr. Mott can diagnose the cause and offer solutions.
- What is the difference between 3D/4D ultrasound and the regular medical ultrasound?
- Standard 2D ultrasound is the primary tool used to assess the baby's growth, anatomy, and well-being. 3D/4D ultrasounds provide detailed, photo-like images of the baby, primarily for keepsake purposes, but are not used for medical diagnosis.
- I'm pregnant. When should I schedule my first prenatal appointment?
- Call our office as soon as you have a positive home pregnancy test. Your first prenatal appointment is typically scheduled for around 8 weeks after your last menstrual period. This first visit is important for confirming the pregnancy, determining a due date, and planning for a healthy pregnancy.
- 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. Mott can perform an initial workup and discuss next steps or referral to a fertility specialist.
- Do you perform gynecological surgery, like a hysterectomy?
- Dr. Mott performs a wide range of gynecological surgeries, including hysterectomies, myomectomies, and endometrial ablations. She is skilled in minimally invasive techniques, such as laparoscopy and robotic surgery, which can result in quicker recovery times.
