Gynecologists trained in minimally invasive gynecologic surgery specialize in evaluating and treating women who have a wide range of gynecologic conditions, including heavy menstrual periods (menorrhagia), fibroids (leiomyoma), irregular menstrual periods (metrorrhagia) and ovarian cysts. Our specially trained surgeons also provide surgical, interventional, and medical management of complex endometriosis and chronic pelvic pain.
Unlike open surgery, which requires one long incision, minimally invasive surgery is performed through tiny incisions laparoscopically or with the use of a robotic surgical system. Through these less invasive approaches, we’re able to perform extremely complex procedures with unmatched precision, while also allowing for a smoother recovery.
Common minimally invasive surgical procedures include:
- Endometriosis surgery
- Essure removal
- Hysterectomy
- Hysteroscopy
- Myomectomy
- Ovarian cystectomy
- Surgical transgender care
- Sonata Treatment (Incision-free treatment of uterine fibroids)
No matter your unique needs, our specially trained surgeons are committed to getting to the root of your concerns and improving your quality of life. Count on us to work with you to develop a treatment plan that’s best for you.
