IUD and PAP Clinics (Family Planning), Calgary AB

IUD and PAP clinics for Calgary area women
A happy healthy young woman Dr. Folake Pepple believes that every woman deserves compassionate healthcare. She understands that, for many women, having a female physician is a great source of comfort. At Silverado Medical & Aesthetic Clinic in Calgary well-woman medical services – IUD and PAP clinics – are available, along with family medicine.

The importance of PAP

An estimated 1,500 women in this country are diagnosed with cervical cancer in a year. About four hundred won’t survive it. A PAP test screens for cervical cancer. It is essential for early detection of precancerous or cancerous cells at the opening of the uterus. While cervical cancer is most commonly the result of the sexually transmitted human papilloma virus (HPV), there can be non-viral causes. In addition, HPV can be dormant for years, even if you are in a monogamous relationship. For those reasons, beginning at age 21, all women should have regular screening.

The physicians at Silverado Medical & Aesthetic Clinic will talk with you about how often to have a PAP test, depending on your:
  • Age.
  • Sexual activity and lifestyle.
  • Health status.
  • Past history of PAP results.
The procedure involves little or no discomfort. The doctor gently collects cells from the cervix. The specimen is then examined at a lab for abnormal cells.

Family planning

Silverado Medical & Aesthetic Clinic also provides complete IUD care. This service is provided by Dr. Pepple and Dr. Tolu Solola.

An intrauterine device is inserted into the uterus to prevent pregnancy. This long-term birth control method is extremely effective, and easily removed, should you decide to conceive.

Our clinic offers:
  • Family planning education.
  • Consultation and assessment to determine if you are a candidate for an IUD.
  • Placement of the device.
  • Follow-up care.
  • Removal.
We know that well women make healthy daughters, sisters, mothers, and community leaders. At IUD and PAP clinics at Silverado Medical & Aesthetic Clinic in Calgary, all women can receive discreet empathetic care. Call to schedule an appointment.
