A gynecologist is a physician who is trained in treating diseases of the female reproductive systems and providing women health care that focuses on the reproductive organs. While a general doctor can treat minor women's health problems, consultation of gynecologists is very necessary when it is related to some specific aspects of women's health. They work closely with an obstetrician during pregnancy. The doctors certified in both obstetrics and gynecology are called OB/GYN doctors. The doctors also work in private clinics, hospitals, and specialty clinics. Most of them work in partnership with other medical experts. Some also become educators for medical students studying gynecology.
