About West Augusta Obstetrics & Gynecology

Kristen Beaufort is one of two clinicians at West Augusta Obstetrics and Gynecology, a small Augusta practice she shares with Dr. Susan Bridges. She grew up in the area, trained as a physician assistant at the Medical College of Georgia, and has worked in women's health since 2008. The practice lists menopause management and alternative hormonal therapy among the gynecology services it provides, alongside contraception, endometriosis care and adolescent visits. Ultrasound and digital mammography are done in the office. Appointments are made by phone rather than online, and the office keeps short hours, closing for an hour at midday and at noon on Friday. New prescriptions and refills are handled during office hours, and the practice says some medication requests will need a visit first.
