What if I need care before the 10-14 week time frame?
Should you require care prior to this visit, please contact your PCM team or NHB OB/GYN, 360-475-4995.

What if it’s difficult scheduling a monthly appointment with a community OB/GYN provider?
Your NHB OB/GYN team can help with your prenatal care until your community provider can see you. If you have any questions, please contact us at 360-475-4995.

What if I have questions and concerns before my initial prenatal visit?
For those who have questions or concerns regarding your pregnancy or health prior to your first visit with your prenatal care provider, call OBGYN at 360-475-4995; contact your PCM team directly using MHS GENESIS Patient Portal or call the TRICARE appointment line 1-800-404-4506 to schedule a visit to your PCM.
