KIDZ Medical is pleased to announce the recent opening of MOMZ, an obstetrics and gynecology practice in Homestead. While the office is new, Board-certified obstetrician and gynecologist Darren S. Salinger, M.D., has worked in the community for many years providing emergency room and pregnancy services at Homestead Hospital.
From this fully-equipped office, Dr. Salinger will be able to diagnose and treat a variety of common health conditions including fibroids, polyps, vaginal infections, STDs, ectopic pregnancy and endometrial biopsy in addition to standard pre-natal and well-woman care. Additionally, Dr. Salinger will continue to treat pregnancy related emergencies, evaluate labor progression, monitor fetal heart rate, miscarriage and deliver babies.
“Expanding our services in Homestead is a natural progression for our organization,” commented Wayne Brackin, CEO and president of KIDZ Medical. “Dr. Salinger’s patients will have more and better access to care.”
