Dr. Stefanie A. Schultis

Everything at Stefanie A. Schultis, M.D., Board-Certified Gynecologist in Covington, LA is all about you. It is our privilege to help you experience a happy, healthy lifestyle. We focus on and believe in building life-long relationships with our patients.

As a comprehensive gynecologist, Dr. Schultis urges her patients to visit once a year for Basic Well Woman Examinations.

​

  • Thorough medical, surgical, family and social history

  • Complete physical exam including a breast and pelvic exam

  • The opportunity to ask specific questions about your health and lifestyle such as family planning or birth control, menstrual cycle irregularities, sexual function or menopausal symptoms.

​

Your visit with Dr. Schultis may also include age appropriate health maintenance screening tests.  Some of these are done at the time of your visit and others are separate tests that require a physician's order or referral:

​

  • Pap smear

  • Mammogram

  • Cholesterol screening

  • Colon cancer screening

  • Bone density assessment

  • Sexually-transmitted disease testing

​

Screening recommendations do change over time, therefore, we individualize our recommendations for each patient.

Should I get the HPV vaccine?


Gardasil, the HPV vaccine, protects against certain strains that cause cervical cancer and genital warts. HPV has infected around 20 million people in the U.S., with more than six million new cases occurring annually.

There are more than 100 types of HPV. About 60 cause common skin warts (plantar, hand); around 40 affect the genital tissues and are sexually transmitted. Only a few genital types can cause cancer.

 

Gardasil is effective against four types of HPV, including the two that cause 90% of all genital warts. The other two strains cause 70% of cervical cancer cases.

The FDA approved Gardasil for females and males ages 9-26 years old, because inoculating them before they're sexually active ensures that they’re protected before HPV transmission or exposure. We recommend getting this vaccine from either a pediatrician or primary care physician.

Although the vaccine may protect women older than 26, it hasn’t been sanctioned by the FDA. Why not? Older, sexually active women may have already acquired one (or all) of the four HPV strains the vaccine protects against, thus reducing its effectiveness.

Condoms can't offer complete protection because they don’t cover all skin areas that may harbor the virus.
