In 2000 four established female obstetrician-gynecologists (Dr. Cannon, Cardone, Carpenter and Murrey) and one midwife (S. Haney) realigned to form a new women's healthcare organization. Their desire was to provide an organization capable of providing total female care. They brought with them their diverse training, over 43 years of clinical experience, and their personal experiences as women and mothers. With these tools they were able to establish a state-of-the-art medical practice in an environment that appeals to women.

In October 2004, we added a second midwife Patty Schneider. She brought with her new ideas and over 25 years of experience.   She and Shari Haney have been close friends for several decades and enjoy finally working together.

Throughout 2006, we embarked upon a partnership with Elizabeth Henley, PT to develop what is now Antares Center for Integrative Health.  Antares opened for business in June of 2007 and is rapidly surpassing its goals to become the location for education, services and healthcare providers that help each person encorporate health and wellness into their lives.  We are excited to be able to provide a variety of much needed integrative health services under one roof and look forward to encorporating additional programs in the future. Listed below are current programs and services offered at Antares:

• Nutritional counseling
• Lactation and birth classes
• Pre and Post natal exercise and support programs
• Physical Therapy, Massage Therapy
• DEXA, bone density scanning
• Psychiatry services by Dr. Rabina Mian
