The St. Gianna Women’s Health and Fertility Center is a Catholic vision for women’s health care.  It aims to provide gynecological services that put the woman, her story, and her needs first, by offering a holistic spiritual approach to women's reproductive and overall health. St. Gianna’s will strive to empower women through education and personalized support in managing their reproductive lifespan, including through counseling services and nutrition education.  This will be a culture changing medical facility.

Vision: Holistic care and healing in accord with how the Creator made us.

Mission: St. Gianna Women's Health and Fertility Center's mission is to provide accessible, high-quality, faith-based healthcare services to empower women of all ages, including those underserved or in need. Rooted in the Catholic tradition, we are dedicated to promoting the dignity of life, family, and the holistic development of women through best practices, education, and spiritual care, focused on women's reproductive health.

The Problem: Many women face challenges in accessing healthcare options that prioritize natural and holistic approaches to family planning, post-reproductive years, and practitioners who do not offer services in alignment with natural and holistic methods. The prevalence of pharmaceuticals to treat women's health often overshadows the importance of understanding menstrual health, fertility, and menopause. This gap in healthcare leads to a lack of awareness and support for women who wish to pursue natural methods for managing and understanding their reproductive health.

Solution: St. Gianna Women’s Healthcare and Fertility Center aims to utilize various natural family planning methods, and NaPro Technology (pioneered by Dr. Thomas Hilgers), to educate women to track their menstrual cycles, understand their bodies, and make informed decisions related to fertility and family planning. The Center seeks to foster and nurture women to understand their body's hormone system, track symptoms, and make informed decisions that impact overall health and reproductive years. We foster a nurturing environment for women to feel confident in their feminine health and to thrive.

We hope to open our doors before the end of 2025.
