Are you dealing with heavy periods, bladder control issues, or pelvic pain that’s affecting your daily life? Modern medicine offers minimally invasive solutions that can address your concerns with less pain, shorter recovery times, and exceptional results.
At Women’s Excellence in Obstetrics and Gynecology, we understand that every woman deserves access to advanced, compassionate care close to home. Our team of board-certified specialists offers a comprehensive range of minimally invasive procedures and in-office testing to diagnose and treat gynecologic conditions with precision, so you can get back to living your life on your terms.
What Are Minimally Invasive Procedures?
Minimally invasive procedures use advanced techniques and technology to treat gynecologic conditions with smaller incisions, less tissue damage, and faster healing compared to traditional open surgery. These procedures often result in reduced pain, minimal scarring, shorter hospital stays, and quicker returns to normal activities.
Whether you’re experiencing symptoms that disrupt your quality of life or need diagnostic testing to identify an underlying condition, minimally invasive options offer effective solutions without the extended downtime associated with conventional surgery.
Minimally Invasive Procedures We Offer
Women’s Excellence provides a full spectrum of minimally invasive treatments and diagnostic testing to address a wide variety of women’s health concerns.
Robotic Hysterectomy
Our surgeons utilize state-of-the-art robotic technology to perform hysterectomies with enhanced precision. This minimally invasive approach results in shorter recovery times, reduced pain, and minimal scarring compared to traditional methods.
Robotic Excision of Endometriosis
Endometriosis can cause chronic pelvic pain and affect your fertility. Our expert surgeons use advanced robotic techniques to carefully remove endometrial tissue, alleviating pain and reducing the likelihood of future additional surgeries.
NovaSure Endometrial Ablation
If you suffer from heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding, NovaSure offers a quick, safe, and simple solution. This procedure can lighten or stop your periods without the hormonal side effects or surgical risks associated with other treatments.
Pelvic Organ Prolapse Treatment
When pelvic organs shift from their normal position, it can cause discomfort and interfere with daily activities. We offer surgical options tailored to the severity of your symptoms and your overall health, helping restore comfort and function.
Overactive Bladder Treatment
Overactive bladder can be frustrating and embarrassing, but effective treatments are available. For women whose symptoms persist despite other medications, BOTOX® offers an advanced approach that directly targets the bladder muscle.
BOTOX is FDA-approved to treat overactive bladder symptoms—including a strong need to urinate with leakage, urgency, and frequency—in adults when anticholinergic medications don’t work well enough or cannot be taken. The treatment works by blocking the nerve signals that trigger uncontrolled bladder muscle contractions, helping reduce the overwhelming urge to empty your bladder.
Urodynamic Testing
Urodynamic testing is a diagnostic procedure that evaluates how well your bladder and urethra are functioning. By measuring bladder pressure and flow, we can identify the root cause of urinary incontinence and recommend the most effective treatment plan.
Potassium Sensitivity Test
Diagnosing interstitial cystitis/painful bladder syndrome (IC/PBS) isn’t as simple as just taking a medical history and looking into symptoms. Practitioners rely heavily on information gathered during a potassium sensitivity test to guide their diagnosis.
Bone Mineral Density Testing
As women enter menopause, hormonal changes can lead to bone density loss, increasing the risk of osteopenia or osteoporosis. A bone mineral density (BMD) test uses a special X-ray or CT scan to measure the density of minerals, such as calcium, in your bones, providing valuable information about bone strength.
BMD testing is a necessary evaluation of your skeletal health and should be done every two years to determine whether treatment is needed to protect your bones and maintain your quality of life.
Benefits of Minimally Invasive Procedures
Choosing a minimally invasive approach offers numerous advantages. You’ll experience less postoperative pain, smaller incisions, and reduced scarring. Most procedures result in shorter hospital stays—often same-day discharge—and quicker recovery times, allowing you to return to work, family, and activities sooner. Additionally, minimally invasive techniques typically involve less blood loss and a lower risk of infection, giving you peace of mind throughout your treatment journey.
