Trusting your gynecologist is one of the many factors in finding the best physician for you. Your gynecologist is a valuable asset to your healthcare plan and key to maintaining the ideal women’s healthcare routine. You want to be comfortable talking openly and asking intimate questions about the array of women’s health issues you may face and have no doubts about the quality of care you will receive.
Physicians Regional Medical Group’s newest board-certified Obstetric and Gynecologist, Anne Rainville, M.D., could be the physician you’ve been looking for. Her philosophy practices giving consistent excellent care in the most personalized manner.
Dr. Rainville offers a full scope, wellness/breast exams, and mammograms. She is experienced in a full range of gynecological procedures including minimally invasive surgery, offering procedures such as hysterectomies, and operative laparoscopy, which help treat ovarian cysts and fibroids. She also treats abnormal pap smears, infertility, abnormal bleeding, fibroids, endometriosis, and vulvar conditions.
Although Dr. Rainville treats all ages, her typical demographic ranges from 35-75, pre-menopausal, menopausal, and post-menopausal. “It is of utmost importance that my patients understand their individual gynecological health care concerns and needs,” Dr. Rainville explains. She takes great care in assuring that women know what a specific diagnosis or problem is, how it is treated, why it is treated, and what their options are. “Understanding is power!” She voices.
The healthcare industry is something that seemed to always interest Dr. Rainville. At just 8 years old, she knew she wanted to become a doctor. “I used to have a family medical book and I could not put it down at such a young age,” She explains, “Any chance that I could get to learn about the workings of the human body, I took. All my science research projects were always about medicine! I never doubted that this was my course in life.”
Dr. Rainville went on to medical school at the University of Vermont in Burlington, Vermont before moving on to her residency at George Washington University Hospital in Obstetrics and Gynecology.
Even though the medical field was a given due to Dr. Rainville’s natural interests, she wasn’t always positive on what she wanted to specialize in. Being an OBGYN was not even on her radar until she fell in love with surgery. “I just knew after I saw my first delivery that I wanted to choose OBGYN as my specialty,” She states.
Starting her new journey with Physicians Regional Medical Group, Dr. Rainville hopes to offer women the option of having a physician that they can share their concerns in such a way that will help them feel empowered and in control of their own health. When describing her approach to patient care, Dr. Rainville believes in treating her patients as a whole and developing a plan that is personal to them. She is excited to bring her expertise in gynecological procedure to Naples, FL.
Ever since Dr. Rainville and her husband visited Marco Island 15 years ago, they fell in love with the area. “I did not want to wait until retirement to live here! Every day I wake up to the beautiful sunshine, I know that I have made the right decision.”
Outside of the office, Dr. Rainville enjoys boating and horseback riding. She also loves shopping and dining out and what a better place to do that than Naples, FL!
