  • Overview

    A paradigm change is occurring in the diagnosis and management of endometriosis. This change will help facilitate the earlier diagnosis of endometriosis and promote more widespread use of medical therapy as opposed to surgery for many women. Accompanying this change will be a more patient-centric approach to care, as well as increased efforts to diminish the impact of healthcare disparities experienced by many women during their endometriosis journey. Join our faculty, Drs. Ayman Al-Hendy, Linda Bradley, Sawsan As-Sanie, Melissa Simon, James Simon, and Lee Shulman, as they address these many issues, with a focus on improving short- and long-term patient outcomes for women with endometriosis.
