Make an Appointment With a Fibroid Specialist in Manhattan
As a specialist who treats uterine fibroids at our Manhattan location, Dr. Geschwind performs uterine fibroid embolization (UFE). UFE is a non-surgical, outpatient procedure that uses tiny spheres called embolic agents that block the blood flow to the fibroids. This allows the fibroids to shrink and painful symptoms to resolve. If you experience fibroid symptoms, such as heavy bleeding and stomach bloating, schedule an initial consultation with Dr. Geschwind to learn if UFE is right treatment for your uterine fibroids. We encourage you to learn more about the treatment options available before you make the choice of a more invasive procedure, such as a hysterectomy or a myomectomy. You can expect the highest quality care when you see Dr. Geschwind at fibroid center in Manhattan, as well as at any of our clinics nationwide. Give us a call today at 855.615.2555 to schedule or you can schedule your appointment online with a fibroid specialist.
