Women's Health

At OSF HealthCare, we celebrate the strength of women and empower their voices because when women lead, we all benefit. Women are the foundation of our communities. Health care needs to be designed with their needs in mind. And nobody knows women better than women.

OSF HealthCare is proof of what women can do. Over 140 years ago, a group of brave, smart and compassionate women of great faith answered a call and devoted their lives to serving God by serving others. Starting with a small, overcrowded hospital, they laid a strong foundation that has grown OSF HealthCare into a team more than 23,000 people strong.

At every level of our organization, women are leaders, creating solutions to make health care fit your busy life.

It’s important for you to feel comfortable with your health care partner. We provide options across our primary and specialty care if you prefer a woman caregiver. Meet the women-powered team below and find a care provider who’s right for you.

Primary Care

A primary care provider (PCP) can help guide you through your health care journey. They're you're go-to for preventive care, such as annual checkups and immunizations to stay healthy, any needed referrals to specialists, and overall care management for chronic conditions.

  • Online self-scheduling empowers you to fit appointments into your busy days.
  • Video visits improve access to specialty services.
  • The OSF MyChart online app gives you the power to control your health and communicate with your care team.
