As your primary healthcare provider, Dr. Weise IV offers expert diagnosis and management for a wide range of common health conditions. Common areas of focus include:
- 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.
- Cervical Cancer: OB/GYNs are key in detecting and treating cervical cancer through regular Pap smears and other tests, offering various treatment options if cancer is found.
- Menstrual Disorders: If your menstrual cycle is causing you problems whether it's too heavy, too light, too painful, or just unpredictable an OB/GYN can help you find relief and effective management strategies.
- Placenta Previa: Placenta previa is a pregnancy complication where the placenta partially or completely covers the cervix, potentially causing bleeding and requiring specialized OB/GYN care.
- Low Back Pain During Pregnancy: OB/GYNs specialize in treating back pain related to pregnancy, offering solutions like stretches, supportive garments, and pain medication when necessary.
- High Risk Pregnancy: If you have health conditions like diabetes or hypertension, or experience pregnancy complications, your OB/GYN will manage your high-risk pregnancy to ensure the best outcomes.
- Genital Herpes: Painful sores or blisters in the genital area could be genital herpes, a sexually transmitted infection that OB/GYNs diagnose and treat, offering medication and advice for managing the condition.
- Urinary Tract Infection (UTI): If you experience symptoms like frequent, painful urination, your OB/GYN can determine if you have a UTI and offer effective treatment.
- Coagulation Defects in Pregnancy and Postpartum: Coagulation defects are blood clotting disorders that can cause excessive bleeding during pregnancy and after childbirth, and OB/GYNs help manage these risks and complications.
- Pregnancy Hemorrhoids: During pregnancy, increased blood volume and pressure can lead to hemorrhoids (swollen veins in the anal area). Your OB/GYN can advise on managing pain and preventing further issues.
- Uterine Fibroids: OB/GYNs diagnose and treat uterine fibroids, offering various options like medication, minimally invasive procedures, or surgery depending on the severity and symptoms.
- Cervicitis: Don't ignore unusual cervical symptoms. Cervicitis, inflammation of the cervix, is diagnosed and treated by your OB/GYN to prevent complications and restore your health.
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. Weise IV:
- What is the difference between an Obstetrician and a Gynecologist?
- An OB/GYN, like Dr. Weise IV, is a physician trained in both obstetrics and gynecology. A gynecologist specializes in the female reproductive system, including annual exams, infections, and contraception. An obstetrician specializes in pregnancy, labor, and childbirth. Most OB/GYNs provide 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 visit between the ages of 13 and 15. This initial visit is often a conversation about healthy habits and building a relationship with your doctor, and a pelvic exam is not typically needed unless there is a specific concern.
- Do you perform gynecological surgery, like a hysterectomy?
- Yes, Dr. Weise IV performs a wide range of gynecological surgeries, including hysterectomies, myomectomies, and endometrial ablations. He is skilled in minimally invasive techniques, such as laparoscopy and robotic surgery, which can often result in a faster recovery.
- 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. Weise IV can perform an initial workup and discuss next steps or referral to a fertility specialist.
- I'm approaching menopause. What kind of care do you provide for this stage?
- Dr. Weise IV provides comprehensive care for perimenopause and menopause, including managing symptoms like hot flashes and vaginal dryness, discussing hormone replacement therapy (HRT), and providing screenings for bone density and heart health.
- 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 used for medical diagnoses. It's an optional service.
- What are my options for birth control?
- Birth control options include hormonal methods like pills, patch, and ring; long-acting reversible contraceptives such as IUDs and implants; barrier methods like condoms; and permanent options like tubal ligation. Dr. Weise IV will discuss your lifestyle and health to help you choose the best method for you.
- How often do I need a Pap smear?
- Pap smear guidelines have changed. For most women, a Pap test is recommended every 3 years for ages 21-29. For women ages 30-65, the preferred approach is a Pap test combined with an HPV test every 5 years. Dr. Weise IV will advise on a personalized schedule based on your health history.
