Dr. Ashford and the surgical team at Minnesota Women's Care perform all types of hysterectomies – though the majority of hysterectomies are total laparoscopic hysterectomies. In certain cases, this has not been possible. Now there is good news for women about the potential for supracervical hysterectomies (where the cervix is spared). For the right patient, this new procedure has great benefits – especially its 6-day recovery.

We are so proud of the amazing providers on our team. Through our OBGYNs, Urogynecologists, Nurse Practitioners, and Nurse Midwives, we are able to provide the kind of personalized care that is the foundation of everything we do.

Every now and again, Minnesota Women's Care is in the news. We'll share it with you here.

3D Mammography (breast tomosynthesis) is a new screening and diagnostic breast imaging tool that provides greater detail.

Minnesota Women's Care offers this amazing technology to all women in a small, comfortable mammography suite.
