Ballard Women's Health

OB/GYN

Today there are many alternatives to hysterectomy, including endometrial ablation technologies (some of which can be performed in the office), intrauterine devices, and various newer medical therapies.

We appreciate that every woman has different needs and transitions differently through the perimenopausal and menopausal state. There are many hormone regimes available today to ease the less-tolerable symptoms that may arise: including hot sweats, insomnia, moodiness and irritability, loss of libido, and the overall decline in the sense of well being. We often utilize bio-identical hormones that can all be compounded into a single gel, tablet or suppository to treat each patient's needs.

Bio-identical hormones can also be used as supplements in women who are experiencing premenstrual irritability (PMS or PMDD), irregular periods, or infertility. Read more

    Dr. Brandon is, hands down, one of the nicest medical professionals I've come across. I always feel at ease when I come in for exams and my IUD placement was completely painless. Highly recommended!

    Dr. Knickerbocker is the best. I have been going to her for several years after being referred by my PCP. She is wonderful, professional, straightforward, and caring. The staff at this office is also top-notch. I do not hesitate recommending Ballard Womens Health to anyone looking for a gynecologist.

    Going to the doctor, especially a gynecologist, can be such an awkward or intimidating experience, but I always walk away from my appointments here feeling so glad I found this practice.
    There is a distinct lack of attitude or judgement when it comes to std screening, which is such a huge relief. Dr. Brandon remembers you, even personal details, and has a very positive attitude. He is extremely professional and compassionate, as are the rest of the staff that I've met.
    Getting an appointment the same week can be difficult, but I'd assume that is because they have so many happy patients. Everyone should have such a positive gynecologist experience!

    Such a friendly and professional staff! This place is a hidden gem in Seattle! When you have a scheduled time, they actually see you at that time - this is hard to find!
