Our Surgery Services

We offer a wide range of surgery services to address your unique health needs, including

Colposcopy

Colposcopy is a magnified examination of the cervix. A colposcope is similar to a pair of binoculars with a light attached. In order to do colposcopy, the cervix is first cleaned with a mild vinegar solution

Dilation and Curettage

DILATION AND CURETTAGE is accomplished with a looped metal scraping tool and is usually done with Hysteroscopy (looking inside the uterus) to evaluate or manage abnormal bleeding in a non-pregnant woman.

Endometrial Ablation

Endometrial ablation is the removal or destruction of the lining of the uterus (endometrium). It does not require hospitalization, and most women return to normal activities in a day or two.

IUD Insertions and Removals

An IUD is a small plastic device that is inserted into the uterus (womb) to prevent pregnancy. This IUD works mainly by changing the cervical mucus and the lining of the uterus preventing sperm’s ability to reach the egg and thereby prevents fertilization. Mirena is over 99.9 percent effective.

LEEP – Loop Electrosurgical Excision Procedure

The “LEEP” procedure is the method I prefer to use to treat or remove most significant abnormal pap smear abnormalities. Loop excision uses a fine wire loop with electrical energy flowing through it to remove the abnormal area of the cervix.

Minimally Invasive Hysterectomy

Laparoscopic technology has been steadily improving allowing increasingly complex procedures. The “Minimally Invasive” surgical process involves operating inside the abdomen through very small incisions while watching a video monitor.

Minimally Invasive Hysteroscopy

Hysteroscopy refers to the use of a thin tubular scope that is inserted through the cervix into the uterine cavity. The Hysteroscope is small enough that it can fit through the cervix with minimal or no dilation.

Myomectomy

Myomectomy is the surgical procedure in which uterine fibroids are removed from the uterus. Uterine fibroids (also known as myomas) affect at least 30% (up to 70%) of women. While many fibroids do not need treatment, others can cause abnormal uterine bleeding, pain, pressure or other symptoms

Sterilization Tubal Ligation

PLEASE Notify us if there is ANY risk of pregnancy before your sterilization procedure. You must be totally celibate (avoid ALL intercourse) following the menses just before your surgical procedure. If a woman is 6-8 days pregnant, her pregnancy test might still be negative.
