Scaling with Purpose

For over two decades, WomanCare has been a cornerstone of women’s health in the greater Chicago area – combining clinical excellence with a deeply personal approach to care. But as the practice expanded across multiple locations and service lines, its physician leaders faced a complex question: how to sustain their mission, deepen their impact, and future-proof the practice without losing what made it special. 

That’s where Nova came in. As a founding member of the Nova Women’s Health Partners network, WomanCare saw not just an opportunity for operational support, but a chance to lead. With Nova’s capital and strategic backing, the practice strengthened its infrastructure, expanded access to subspecialty services like menopause care and urogynecology, and began shaping a new standard for integrated, physician-led women’s health. 

This partnership preserved WomanCare’s autonomy and identity while empowering its clinicians to build something bigger--on their own terms.
