Nantucket Cottage Hospital will host a new weekly gynecology clinic with Dr. David Elmer beginning Tuesday, October 27^th.

“I’m very excited about being able to provide this service on-island that had previously been unavailable, and saving people a trip over to the mainland,” Dr. Elmer said.

This new clinic will cover the full gamut of women’s health care, from regular gynecology exams to consultations for infertility, abnormal Pap smears, or menopausal issues.

Dr. Elmer is affiliated with Cape Cod Hospital and is certified by the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology. He attended medical school at Tufts University School of Medicine in Boston, and completed his residency at Tufts-New England Medical Center.

Dr. Elmer is also no stranger to Nantucket, having provided gynecology consultations and obstetrical coverage at Nantucket Cottage Hospital since 1990.

The clinic will be held every Tuesday, and a physician referral is required to schedule an appointment with Dr. Elmer. Please contact your primary care physician if you are interested in this new clinic.
