Root-Cause Care
Lead practitioner Jessica Kirkwood and her team are proud to offer primary women’s health services in Pierce County, Washington.
What is root-cause care? It’s about addressing the root cause of a woman’s issues, instead of just the symptoms. Many providers will just “put a Band-Aid” over the problem — prescribe another round of antibiotics, offer an antidepressant, or simply disregard your pain. At The Women’s Clinic, we treat the whole patient. That might mean:
- Testing for potential chronic conditions
- Providing a diagnosis
- Discussing treatment options
- In some cases, referring you to another physician or mental health professional for ongoing care
We firmly believe that you should be in charge of your healthcare. That’s why we spend as much one-on-one time as possible with each patient, listening to your concerns and discussing your next steps together.
Treating Chronic Women’s Health Conditions
Many of our patients are dealing with chronic conditions unique to the female body. These conditions are often overlooked or disregarded by primary healthcare providers.
Some common conditions we diagnose and treat include:
- PCOS
- Endometriosis
- Vitamin D deficiency
- Hashimoto’s Disease
- Stress incontinence
If you think you are struggling with a chronic health condition, schedule a consultation at The Women’s Clinic. We’ll help you get the answers and treatment you deserve.
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Treatments
PRP injections boost the body’s ability to heal itself. This regenerative treatment can be used to support sexual wellness, heal muscle or tendon injuries, reverse hair loss, soothe chronic pain, and more.

Mental Wellbeing
Your mental and physical health are intertwined. At The Women’s Clinic, we believe in treating the whole patient — and that includes mental, emotional, and spiritual health.
Although we are not mental health specialists, we are here to listen to your concerns, and help connect patients to other resources so they can receive the care they need.
