Living with fibroid or adenomyosis symptoms can affect everything from your daily routine to your overall quality of life. At our Staten Island clinic, we help women find lasting symptom relief without major surgery. Our experienced fibroid specialists in Staten Island, NY, use a technologically advanced, FDA-approved procedure called uterine fibroid embolization (UFE). With UFE, patients go home the same day as their procedure. There’s no need for a hospital stay, stitches, or general anesthesia.
When you’re ready to explore your treatment options, we make it easy to get started. Our Staten Island fibroid center offers fast appointments and secure online scheduling 24/7. Our highly rated doctors provide personalized treatment plans based on your symptoms and individual needs. Our facility is accredited by the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care (AAAHC). Schedule a consultation today to learn whether UFE may be right for you.
Fibroid Diagnosis & Evaluation
Your first visit gives you an opportunity to discuss your symptoms, concerns and treatment goals with a specialist. We provide a minimally invasive exam during the first visit to help determine what may be causing your symptoms and what to do next. The evaluation also helps your doctor assess the location and severity of uterine fibroids. From there, we can recommend a treatment plan based on your individual needs.
Conditions Treated
Our doctors evaluate and treat two common conditions that can cause symptoms such as heavy bleeding, pelvic pain and pressure: uterine fibroids and adenomyosis.
- Uterine fibroids: Non-cancerous growths that form on or inside the uterus. Fibroids can cause a wide range of symptoms, including prolonged menstrual bleeding, pelvic pressure, and fertility issues.
- Adenomyosis: This condition occurs when tissue that normally lines the uterus grows into the uterus’s muscular wall, causing heavy bleeding, severe menstrual cramps, and abdominal swelling.
Treatment can help improve symptoms and reduce their impact on your daily life.
Non-Surgical Fibroid Treatment Near You
At our Staten Island location, we provide uterine fibroid embolization as a less invasive alternative to fibroid surgery. The procedure does not require removing the uterus or any part of it.UFE is a minimally invasive, image-guided procedure that generally involves a shorter recovery period than more invasive surgical procedures. A similar procedure, known as uterine artery embolization (UAE), may be used to treat adenomyosis.
Uterine Fibroid Embolization in Staten Island, NY
UFE works by slowing blood flow to affected uterine tissue, causing affected tissue to shrink, which can help improve symptoms such as painful periods, anemia-related fatigue, back pain, pelvic pressure, and heavy bleeding.
During this minimally invasive outpatient procedure, a fibroid specialist uses image-guided technology to insert a small catheter into a blood vessel and deliver tiny particles that block the blood supply feeding the fibroids. Healthy uterine tissue continues to receive normal blood flow while the fibroids gradually shrink over time. With embolization, we can help community members who need relief from fibroids and adenomyosis in an outpatient setting with minimal recovery time.
Candidacy for UFE
If fibroid or adenomyosis symptoms are interfering with work, activities, or your everyday routine, UFE may be worth considering. It can be an option for women who want to treat their symptoms without surgery to remove the uterus.
During your consultation, your specialist will review your symptoms, medical history, and ultrasound results to determine whether UFE is an appropriate treatment option for your condition. If you are a candidate, we will create a personalized treatment plan designed to help relieve your symptoms and improve your quality of life.

Excellent experience. I was extremely nervous but the Dr and his whole team of nurses, assistants and front desk staff made my experience amazing. I’m so happy I chose Dr White and his clinic . Thank you. UFE One month update after ufe still well above average experience. The recovery is tough but Dr. White is very responsive to any after hours concerns or needs. There are not many clinics for these types of procedures and specialty. I recommend this one. From the initial visit to post op 5 stars.
Went to get info about UFE and left with a more comprehensive understanding of my choices and situation than with my own Gyno.

I am 51 year old woman who had been suffering from Utrine Fibroids for over 10 years. Dr Shiloh and his staff were absolutely wonderful. I was scheduled for my procedure pending insurance approval. Had the procedure done in the office and walked out the same day. Took pain meds for 5 days and returned to work and regular duties in a week. I had little to no pain or cramping.
