I offer face-to-face virtual visits for a variety of health services and conditions.
I am double boarded in FPMRS/Urogynecology and OBGYN, and I specialize in urogynecology and treat women with pelvic floor disorders. I have advanced training in vaginal surgery for benign indications and vaginal reconstruction. Urogynecology and pelvic health conditions include pelvic organ prolapse (vaginal bulge), urinary and fecal incontinence (leaking/accidents), and other pelvic floor symptoms/dysfunction
My practice philosophy: Pelvic floor disorders are common, but women often feel alone with their symptoms and concerns. Fortunately, there is a wide range of treatment options which include both conservative, nonsurgical and surgical options. I offer behavioral, medical and surgical treatments for these problems. I am trained to do vaginal surgery as well as minimally invasive surgery, including the DaVinci robot system.
