Gynecology

This is a way we remove tissue from inside your womb. We may do it to get a sample of tissue to study. We call this a "biopsy." We may do it to treat a problem inside your womb. Or, we may do it to clear away tissue that was left behind after a miscarriage or a delivery.

This lets your surgeon examine and treat problems of organs in your pelvic area. It's done with a viewing device called a "laparoscope."

This outpatient procedure reshapes or reduces the size of the labia minora, commonly called the inner lips of the vagina. These are the flaps of skin on both sides of the vaginal canal. Some women have large, protruding or irregularly-shaped labia minora, and this can be uncomfortable and may cause a woman to feel self-conscious. Labiaplasty can give the labia an appearance that a woman believes is more standard.

This test looks for abnormal cells on your cervix. That's the lower part of your uterus. We do this test to find cells that may become cancer. It also helps us find cancer that is still in its early stages.

This surgery repairs a damaged perineum. That's the space between your vagina and anus. We use this surgery to fix problems linked to childbirth or some other injury. It treats scar tissue that has formed after a tear. It can help strengthen the area around weakened vaginal walls. And it may help relieve pain you feel during sex.

This minimally-invasive surgical procedure is performed to remove a cyst that has developed on an ovary. It is performed with the aid of a lighted viewing telescope, called a laparoscope, and is performed in an outpatient setting.

This procedure removes abnormal tissue from your cervix. Your cervix is the lower part of your womb. LEEP helps us diagnose and treat problems with the cervix. It removes cells that, if left untreated, may turn into cancer.

This minimally-invasive procedure, performed with the da Vinci Surgical System, is used to restore a collapsed vagina. In this procedure, a surgical mesh support is anchored to the sacrum and attached to the outside of the vagina, restoring the vagina to its normal position.

This is a bulge in your vagina. It happens when the muscles of your vaginal walls weaken. This lets organs and structures move out of position and push into your vagina.
