Prenatal Care

The doctors and midwives at Westside Women’s Care can help you plan the experience you want for your delivery. Creating a comfortable and relaxing environment that is less surgical/clinical is our focus. Also known as a “gentle C-section” we provide for delayed cord-clamping when possible, skin-to-skin contact between mom and baby where you will be able to hold, touch, and comfort your newborn. You can choose your own music that is special to you and your family. Once your baby has been checked by our pediatric nursing staff, you can breastfeed when your baby is ready.

Ultrasound

Westside Women’s Care offers an array of obstetric and gynecologic ultrasound services provided on site for your convenience. Our sonographers are ARDMS, board-certified in obstetrics and gynecology. All of our equipment is state of the art, providing immediate results to our providers that can be discussed with you and your family.

Do you suffer from heavy bleeding?

Does your menstrual cycle seem abnormally long or heavy? Are you afraid of leaking through a pad or tampon? Have you been diagnosed with anemia from blood loss? If so, you may have menorrhagia (pronounced: men-o-rahj-ah).

Menorrhagia is defined as unusually heavy or long-lasting menstrual periods. It occurs in 1 out of every 5 women. If you believe that you might have excessive menstrual bleeding, speak with a doctor after exploring this site to learn more about your treatment options for heavy periods.

Da Vinci Robotic Surgery

When medication and non-invasive procedures are unable to relieve symptoms, surgery remains the accepted and most effective treatment for a range of gynecologic conditions. These include, but are not limited to, uterine fibroids, endometriosis, cervical and uterine cancer, uterine prolapse and heavy or excessive menstrual bleeding.

With da Vinci Surgery, small incisions are used to introduce miniaturized wristed instruments and a high-definition 3D camera. Seated comfortably at the da Vinci console, your surgeon views a magnified, high-resolution 3D image of the surgical site.

At the same time, state-of-the-art robotic and computer technologies scale, filter and seamlessly translate your surgeon’s hand movements into precise micro-movements of the da Vinci instruments. For more information on this topic, please visit www.davincisurgery.com

Novasure procedure

The NovaSure procedure is a quick, safe, simple, one-time endometrial ablation treatment. This minimally invasive procedure controls heavy bleeding by using energy to remove the lining of the uterus. The average treatment time is about 90 seconds and only needs to be performed once to lighten or stop your periods. No pretreatment drugs are required and NovaSure can be performed in the hospital or in your doctor’s office.

Without the side effects of hormones or the risks of hysterectomy, NovaSure has a quick recovery time so you can get back to your life sooner. Most women experience no pain after the procedure, and can return to work and regular activities the next day. More information can be found at www.novasure.com

Birth Control Options

Whether used for contraception or not, many women benefit from using hormones to prevent pregnancy, improve heavy menstrual cycles, minimize pain with their periods, or even improve acne. Other women prefer to use a birth control that is hormone-free. Sometimes, the options can be overwhelming and it is hard to know what is right for you. Through discussions with your provider, you can decide if a shorter term option such as condoms, Phexxi (contraceptive gel), pills, a patch, or the vaginal ring will be best, or if instead an intrauterine device (IUD) or Nexplanon are more fit for your current needs.

Below are websites that focus on helping people choose the right birth control method to fit into their lifestyle.

What Our Patients Say

Reviews Of Westside Women's Care

, Chelsea I, Westside Women's Care
I love Westside Women's Care! I moved to the area earlier this year and was in need of an OBGYN. Dr. Thomas is an incredible doctor, one of the most compassionate and competent doctors I've ever known. Not only did Dr. Thomas help me diagnose my endometriosis and perform the surgery herself, but she and the other doctors—Dr. Eun and Dr. Axelrod, and all the nurses (Anna, Alex, Stacy, Marti, and others)—helped me with offsite IVF monitoring. The process was new for the team (and new for me!) but, despite it all, they managed everything for me brilliantly, and I'm so grateful for it. The doctors, nurses, and staff here are accommodating and compassionate. Thank you!

Very good Doctors and staff is friendly. My doc treats me like a real person, not just another insurance billing and she answers any question I may have. Best OBGYN I have had in CO in years. I’ve shared this office with all my friends.

I love this clinic so so much!!!
I had a miscarriage last summer and it was really hard time, but they sent me a hand writing message card and it warmed my heart.
I am always treated well, love all the nurses and doctors there, had never had any complain at all.

The complete care given to me and also shown to me by the nurses, doctors and staff at Westside Women’s Care is unparalleled to anywhere I've ever been. Women’s health care is extremely complex physically as well as mentally. I came to Westside Women’s Care as a new patient in March. My health issues were weighing heavy on me and had a few bad experiences with other health professionals. I had new concerns for my OBGYN as well as all of prior chronic diagnoses for her to take into consideration and accommodate. I was at a crossroads and needed someone to help me. If it weren’t for Dr. Steinberg I would have given up. All it takes is for someone to listen and actually hear you to get you the right help. Thank you so much for being compassionate enough to make my ENTIRE HEALTH your priority

Had a successful ECV (external cephalic version) to turn my breech baby head down.  Dr. Steinberg completed my baby's turn in under a minute at Lutheran.  I will be forever grateful to avoid a scheduled cesarean and have vaginal birth for the benefit of my baby and myself!  Thanks Dr. Steinberg!

I’ve had several babies with Westside and have worked with a lot of the staff. Dr. Minton is an amazing OB/GYN. I had the opportunity to work with both Drs. and Midwives this last pregnancy and it was a great experience. Dr. Minton is smart, kind, and very knowledgeable. He is chill and has a funny dry sense of humor. He addressed everything that came up during my pregnancies with unparalleled expertise. I felt like my questions & input were always welcomed. He was kind to our children when they accompanied me on occasion to prenatal visits. He’s the type of Dr. that after a long day of seeing patients & performing surgery, went out of his way just to stop by to meet the baby and check on us, simply because that’s the kind of person he is. At my follow-up visit we discussed health, nutrition, and all of my medical questions were thoroughly addressed. With Dr. Minton, you can expect to receive the best care available from a great person & a high quality medical professional. The practice as a whole is top notch. Jules is an awesome midwife and other staff like Alexis in labs and Melissa in ultrasound are fantastic as well. You truly can’t go wrong here - I highly recommend Westside Women’s Care in general and Dr. Minton specifically
