At Novant Health Mintview OB/GYN, women’s health is more than a specialty – it’s a commitment to providing compassionate, expert care through every phase of life. With locations in Ballantyne, Steele Creek and a third office opening in Fort Mill in late 2025, Mintview OB/GYN is meeting the needs of women across south Charlotte and beyond.
 
“Our team provides individualized obstetrical and gynecological care for women of all ages,” states Dr. Nathan Givens, ob-gyn with the clinic. “We take pride in being your partner during all of life’s stages so you can live your best quality of life.”
 
From well-woman exams to managing complex gynecologic concerns, Mintview OB/GYN offers a full spectrum of care. Routine annual exams include screening for cervical cancer, infections, breast concerns and some routine immunizations. Also available are in-office ultrasounds and minimally invasive surgical procedures – all within the convenience of the Novant Health Ballantyne Medical Center. Frequent gynecological concerns treated at Mintview OB/GYN include vaginitis, acute and chronic pelvic pain, urinary tract infections and menstrual cycle concerns.
 
The clinic also treats other issues like abnormal uterine bleeding, treatment of abnormal pap smears, uterine fibroids, ovarian cysts, polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) and menopausal/perimenopausal symptoms. 
 
Pregnancy care at Mintview OB/GYN is both comprehensive and supportive. Clinicians routinely see patients for preconception counseling to review medications, family history and discuss any potential concerns before pregnancy. Once pregnancy is confirmed, routine prenatal visits are scheduled to monitor the health of the expectant mother and the growth and health of the baby, with periodic ultrasounds to evaluate fetal anatomy and growth. During routine office visits, many topics are covered, including glucose testing, monitoring of weight gain, measurement of fetal growth, maternity education, breastfeeding education and preparation for labor and delivery. 
 
“Plus, we’re thrilled to offer midwifery care as part of our collaborative clinic team,” Givens said. “Our certified nurse midwives bring a compassionate, patient-centered approach and are here to support women – from annual checkups and gynecologic care to prenatal visits, labor and delivery at Ballantyne Medical Center, and even menopause support. It’s a meaningful step forward in how we care for our community.”  
 
Contraceptive counseling is another important focus. Clinicians walk patients through a variety of birth control options – oral pills, injections, IUDs, implants and even surgical sterilization – ensuring every woman can choose what’s right for her life and goals. “We believe patients who are well-informed can make the best decisions about their healthcare,” notes Ginny Gaulden, lead midwife for the clinic.
 
As women approach menopause, Mintview OB/GYN remains a trusted resource. Whether navigating hot flashes, irregular vaginal bleeding, vaginal dryness, night sweats and/or mood changes, the team offers both education and personalized treatment plans, both hormonal and nonhormonal. “We want you to feel heard and not alone – you don’t need to suffer,” they emphasize.
 
The strength of Mintview OB/GYN lies in its people: board-certified physicians, certified nurse midwives, a women’s health nurse practitioner, sonographers and support staff who all work together to provide top-tier care. “Our clinicians are experts in everything from adolescent care to surgical treatment options,” Givens stated. “We listen to our patients and collaborate with them to develop the best possible care plan.”
 
Whether you're planning a pregnancy, managing menopause or simply due for a routine exam, Novant Health Mintview OB/GYN offers the trusted expertise and personalized care every woman deserves.
 
Appointments can be scheduled online at NHMintviewObGyn.org or by calling 704-377-5675. With office hours Monday through Friday, and some early morning availability with nurse midwives and a nurse practitioner, the team makes it easy to find a convenient time.
