  • Women's Health Outreach
    Perhaps because we're a hospital which was founded by women, Rochester General has always had a deep interest in the special health care needs of women. We know, that for too many women, personal health and well-being can take a back seat; that there often aren't enough hours in the day to fulfill all of our obligations and find time for ourselves.

    We also understand that women are usually charged with the responsibility of selecting a physician or a hospital for themselves or their family. And sound decisions require access to complete and reliable information. So, Rochester General extends a helping hand -- Women's Health Reach. It's an effort to help you make the best choices for you and your family.
