HPV Screening and Prevention

Protect Your Health with Comprehensive HPV Care

At Nova Patient Care, we are committed to providing comprehensive, compassionate care for the prevention, early detection, and management of Human Papillomavirus (HPV). HPV is the most common sexually transmitted infection, and regular screening is key to protecting your long-term health.

What is HPV?

HPV (Human Papillomavirus) is a group of viruses that can affect both men and women. Some types of HPV can cause genital warts, while others are associated with cancers such as cervical, anal, oropharyngeal (throat), and penile cancers. Most HPV infections go away on their own, but persistent infections can lead to serious health problems.

Common Symptoms of HPV

Many people with HPV have no symptoms, which is why screening is so important. In some cases, HPV may cause:

  • Genital warts: Small bumps or growths in the genital area
  • Abnormal Pap smear results: Indicating changes in cervical cells
  • Throat or mouth lesions: Associated with oral HPV infections

Why Choose Nova Patient Care for HPV Screening?

  • Confidential, Compassionate Care: A respectful environment where your privacy is a priority
  • Experienced Providers: Skilled in HPV screening, diagnosis, and management
  • Comprehensive Approach: Integrated care with other preventive health services
  • Convenient Appointments: In-person and virtual visits to fit your schedule

Why is HPV Screening Important?

  • Detect HPV infections early before they cause health issues
  • Prevent cervical cancer through early detection and treatment of precancerous changes
  • Identify high-risk HPV strains linked to cancer development
  • Promote peace of mind by understanding your HPV status
