Women’s Care Specialists, LLC Women’s Health Women’s Care Specialists (WCS) is an all-female private practice that has been operating in the St. Charles and Chesterfield areas for the past 17 years. WCS is comprised of four board-certified OBGYNs and three board-certified women’s health nurse practitioners. Drs. Janet Matuszek, Kelly Ott, Jenny Pennycook, and Carole McLaughlin, and nurse practitioners Julie Schweitzer and Angela Warner, are excited to welcome the newest member of their team, nurse practitioner Rachel Bender. Rachel brings many years of labor and delivery experience in addition to teaching at Saint Louis University School of Nursing. WCS encourages women to make health a priority by offering morning, late-evening, and same-day appointments to fit within your busy schedule. In-office laboratory service provides added convenience for patients, eliminating trips to a third-party provider and/or additional appointments. WCS’ attentive, respectful, caring staff uses the latest technology to provide complete, individualized women’s health care, addressing physical, emotional, and educational needs of women—from early adolescence through menopause. The providers specialize in disease prevention, cancer screening, menstrual cycle irregularities, hormonal imbalances, contraception, pelvic pain, infertility, pregnancy (including high-risk), menopause, urinary incontinence, minimally invasive surgery, and advanced laparoscopic procedures. WCS’ providers are well-known in the medical field, as well as the community. They are able to touch many lives through their outreach efforts as partners with Girls in the Know and Girls on the Run. They believe investing in younger generations will provide the education needed to empower young women to make educated decisions about their health and wellness, preparing them for future success. Learn more about WCS online at wcs-stl.com, where you can take a look at the Health on Heels blog, full of information on women’s health topics and issues. There, you also can read testimonials from current and past patients. Or, follow the practice on Facebook (facebook.com/wcsstl).
