GynKnow is a women’s health clinic in Hood River, Oregon, founded by Dr. Elaine Adsit, a board-certified obstetrician and gynecologist with more than 30 years of experience. After retiring from obstetrics and surgical procedures in 2020, Dr. Adsit established the practice to focus on gynecological care in a warm, compassionate setting. GynKnow emphasizes patient education and shared decision-making, helping women understand their options and take an active role in their health.

The clinic provides preventive and diagnostic services, including well-woman visits, annual exams, and STD testing. Its care also addresses menopause and perimenopause, hormonal imbalances, and related concerns. Services and treatment options include bioidentical hormone therapy, as well as care for PMS, PCOS, pelvic prolapse, bladder-control issues, libido concerns, and abnormal periods. GynKnow’s approach is designed to support women’s health and vitality through personalized attention.

The clinic plans to transition to direct-pay care by late 2026, with patients paying at the time of visits rather than having GynKnow bill insurance. Expected costs will be shared in advance.
