Meet the Women's Health Team
At Livingston HealthCare, we have a variety of medical professionals who
are trained to provide you and your family the best care. To help you
find what type of provider is the best for you, here is a helpful explanation
of the different specialties:
Family Medicine Physicians:
Family Medicine physicians serve as primary care providers. The training
for family medicine physicians focuses on caring for the whole family,
including pregnant moms and newborns. They can treat a variety of illnesses
and conditions, conduct health screenings and physical exams, provide
primary wellness and preventative care. Family Medicine physicians can
specialize in women’s health and obstetrics, providing care for
annual Pap smears, breast exams, prenatal care, labor and delivery.
Obstetricians and Gynecologists:
Obstetricians and gynecologists (OB/GYNs) are experts in the female reproductive
system. OB/GYNs are physicians trained to care for women during pregnancy
and childbirth, as well as provide preventive women's health care,
contraception and menopause advice and management. Diagnosis and treatment
of female reproductive system problems such as ovarian cysts and endometriosis,
uterine fibroids, polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), urinary incontinence
and pelvic prolapse are unique to this specialty. OB/GYNs also perform
surgical services such as hysterectomies, GYN laparoscopies and hysteroscopies
with endometrial ablation.
Certified Nurse Midwife/Women's Health Nurse Practitioner:
A Certified Nurse Midwives (CNM)/Women's Health Nurse Practitioner

times—feel uncertain. I see my role as your doctor to celebrate

your delivery. The trust that we build in each other will help make a
beautiful birthday for your little one."
Genevieve Reid, MD
BOARD CERTIFIED, FAMILY MEDICINE
Dr. Genevieve Reid strives to provide the best possible care to her patients
by listening to their concerns and keeping herself well-informed and current.
She is particularly interested in working with young families and taking
care of expecting mothers and their new babies. Dr. Reid encourages her
patients to take a proactive role in their healthcare. She says one of
her greatest satisfactions comes from getting to know a new mother, supporting
her through this major life transition, and then going on to take care
of her children. "You gain such a familiarity with the family that
it makes it easier to care for them and to be their healthcare advocate,"
she explains. "It’s about patient-centered care and being responsive
to the patient’s need, not dictating to them what they should do.
