Thoughtful Solutions for Complex Women's Health Needs

When surgery is the best path forward, you deserve a team that combines advanced surgical expertise with compassionate, personalized care. At Her Health Gynecology, we offer minimally invasive gynecologic procedures designed to treat a variety of conditions while helping reduce pain, shorten recovery times, and support the best possible outcomes.

Whether you’re seeking relief from fibroids, abnormal bleeding, ovarian cysts, or another gynecologic condition, our team will take the time to understand your concerns, explain your treatment options, and create a surgical plan tailored to your health and goals.

What Are Gynecologic Surgical Services?

Gynecologic surgery is sometimes recommended when conservative treatments are no longer effective or when a surgical procedure offers the best long-term solution. Advances in minimally invasive techniques allow many procedures to be performed with smaller incisions, less discomfort, and faster recovery compared to traditional surgery.

At Her Health Gynecology, our team provides comprehensive surgical care for women experiencing a wide range of gynecologic conditions. We carefully evaluate your symptoms, diagnosis, and future reproductive goals before recommending surgery, ensuring every treatment plan is personalized to your individual needs.

Our surgical services include minimally invasive robotic hysterectomy, myomectomy (fibroid removal), ovarian cyst removal, NovaSure® Endometrial Ablation, bilateral salpingectomy (permanent birth control), and hysteroscopy with polyp removal.

How Our Surgical Services Work

Every surgical recommendation begins with a comprehensive consultation. Our team will review your symptoms, medical history, imaging, previous treatments, and health goals before discussing whether surgery is the most appropriate option or if less invasive treatments should be considered first.

No two women have the same diagnosis or treatment goals. Our team will explain your surgical options, discuss whether preserving fertility is important, review the benefits and potential risks of each procedure, and recommend the approach that best fits your individual needs.

Before your procedure, you’ll receive detailed preoperative instructions, including laboratory testing, medication guidance, and information about preparing for surgery. Our team will ensure you understand every step of the process and have an opportunity to ask questions.

Recovery depends on the type of procedure performed. Minimally invasive surgery often allows for a quicker recovery than traditional open surgery, although healing times vary. Our team will provide personalized postoperative instructions, activity guidelines, and recommendations to support a smooth recovery.

Many minimally invasive gynecologic procedures are performed on an outpatient basis, allowing patients to return home the same day. Our team will discuss what to expect based on your specific procedure.

Yes. Follow-up appointments are an important part of your recovery. Our team will monitor your healing, review your progress, discuss pathology results if applicable, and ensure you’re recovering as expected.

What Can Surgical Services Treat?

When conservative treatments aren’t enough, minimally invasive gynecologic surgery can provide lasting relief from many common conditions. Our surgical services may help treat:

  • Uterine fibroids causing pain or heavy bleedin
  • Ovarian cysts requiring surgical removal
  • Heavy or abnormal uterine bleeding
  • Uterine polyps
  • Chronic pelvic pain related to gynecologic conditions
  • Women seeking permanent birth control through bilateral salpingectomy

If surgery is recommended, Her Health Gynecology is committed to providing expert, compassionate care while helping you make informed decisions about your health.

What to Know

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about minimally invasive gynecologic surgery, recovery, treatment options, and preparing for your procedure.

A robotic hysterectomy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that uses advanced robotic-assisted technology to remove the uterus through small incisions. This approach often results in less pain, reduced blood loss, smaller scars, and a faster recovery compared to traditional open surgery.

A myomectomy is a surgical procedure that removes uterine fibroids while preserving the uterus. It may be recommended for women who wish to relieve fibroid symptoms while maintaining their fertility or avoiding a hysterectomy.

Most ovarian cysts resolve on their own, but surgery may be recommended if a cyst is large, persistent, painful, appears abnormal on imaging, or is causing complications.

Endometrial Ablation is a minimally invasive procedure that removes the uterine lining to significantly reduce or eliminate heavy menstrual bleeding. It is intended for women who have completed childbearing and are not planning future pregnancies.

A bilateral salpingectomy is a permanent form of birth control that removes both fallopian tubes. In addition to providing permanent contraception, research suggests the procedure may reduce the future risk of certain ovarian cancers.

Yes. Hysteroscopy with polyp removal is a minimally invasive procedure that allows our team to remove uterine polyps using specialized instruments while viewing the inside of the uterus with a small camera.

Recovery varies depending on the procedure performed. Many women return to light daily activities within a few days to two weeks following minimally invasive surgery, while complete healing may take several weeks.
