Welcome to Columbia Basin FertilityCare™ Services!
This center provides professional services for individual client needs in the CREIGHTON MODEL FertilityCare™ System and NaProTechnology. Here, teens, women and couples learn the Creighton Model System in order to chart their menstrual cycles for diagnosis and treatment of gynecologic disorders, as well as to achieve or postpone pregnancy (married and chaste marriage prep couples). The CREIGHTON MODEL FertilityCare™ System is the only system used with NaProTechnology, the new women's reproductive health science that corrects and heals many health problems experienced by women.
Learning the system consists of attending an Introductory Session and individualized follow-up sessions. To attend an Introductory Session or to schedule an individual session (IN PERSON OR VIRTUAL), please . Follow-ups are scheduled based on time needs of clients during our daytime hours and selected evening hours. To adequately and confidently learn the system, the recommended follow-up schedule is five follow-ups during the first three months and three follow-ups over the next nine months.
Creighton Model System
The Creighton Model System has proven itself to be an excellent method of NFP, or Fertility Awareness, as well as having applications to women's health care. The System relies upon the observation of a natural sign, the discharge of cervical mucus, which is essential to human fertility. As ovulation approaches, this mucus discharge undergoes a progressive change, which can be easily observed and interpreted.

NaProTECHNOLOGY®, which stands for Natural Procreative Technology, is a reproductive science that takes a contemporary approach to women’s gynecological and procreative health. NaProTECHNOLOGY®, integrated with the use of the Creighton Model FertilityCare™ System, is designed to monitor and maintain a woman’s reproductive system, help identify certain underlying problems, and aid in planning appropriate treatment. The Creighton Model teaches women how to observe and chart their fertility cycles in a precise and standardized way. The chart then provides medically significant biomarkers that can be interpreted by physicians who are specifically trained in NaProTECHNOLOGY®. After analyzing the chart, the NaProTECHNOLOGY® trained doctor will be able to conduct appropriately timed diagnostic tests and provide women with valuable healthcare information and treatment options that are not suppressive, but cooperative. The Creighton Model FertilityCare™ System is the only family planning method that can be used in conjunction with NaProTECHNOLOGY® to assist with diagnosing and treating reproductive health problems.
If necessary, Columbia Basin FertilityCare™ Services can refer you to a FertilityCare™ Medical Consultant, a physician specially trained in NaProTECHNOLOGY®. At least least two months of charting with a Creighton Model FertilityCare™ System practitioner is required before scheduling a NaProTECHNOLOGY® consultation. A Medical Consultant will only be able to prescribe tests and make an accurate diagnosis after seeing your Creighton Model chart.

Vivify Women's Health and Fertility
OFFERING TELEHEALTH IN WASHINGTON STATE
I am a board-certified obstetrician and gynecologist who specializes in a women’s health science called Natural Procreative Technology (NaProTechnology). I discovered this nuanced approach while working as a research assistant for Dr. Thomas W. Hilgers at the St. Paul VI Institute. I have had the invaluable experience of being mentored by Dr. Hilgers while spending over 13 years of my medical career serving patients at the St. Paul VI Institute.
I have chosen to set aside my obstetrical skills to focus on treating gynecologic diseases. With diverse clinical experience and surgical expertise, I hope to fulfill a need and alleviate suffering. By engaging patients, teaching medical professionals, and speaking within the community, I plan to educate and empower women and couples. I believe this is the key to raising the bar in women’s healthcare.
