Gynecological Surgeries and Procedures
In some cases, surgery may be required. We approach surgery with you, the patient, as our partner. We take time to explain the surgery we recommend and discuss the possible alternatives and the potential risks associated with the procedure. We believe that the better you understand your diagnosis and treatment recommendations, the better your recovery will be.
If you have a question regarding a particular procedure, please contact our office at (210) 34-WOMAN or (210) 349-6626.
