When you need medical care, you don’t have the time for prolonged trips to the hospital. When you need treatment, you need it done as efficiently and as quickly as possible. That’s why at OB-GYN Women’s Centre of Lakewood Ranch, we offer minor surgeries and procedures in the comfort of our office. By offering these procedures in-office, we save our patients the time and cost of hospitalization.
Our OB-GYN In-Office Procedures
Breast Ultrasounds: We now offer on-site breast ultrasounds for patients who’ve received inconclusive mammogram results. This makes the process more streamlined and decreases the amount of time you have to spend in uncertainty.
Colposcopy: A colposcopy may be needed when a pap test shows abnormal results. This procedure takes place so your OB-GYN can more closely examine your cervix, vagina and vulva.
Endometrial Ablation: This procedure is done as an alternative to a hysterectomy for women who experience abnormally heavy periods. There are different options for this procedure. When you visit your OB-GYN physician, you will have the opportunity to discuss which procedure will be the best for you.
Hysteroscopy: A hysteroscopy is another simple procedure we do in-office. During the hysteroscopy, your OB-GYN will use a camera to look inside the uterus to diagnose any obvious uterine abnormalities.
IUD Insertion: An IUD, intrauterine device, is a device that is used as a form of long-term birth control and is inserted by a physician. It’s a great birth control option for those women who are not interested in permanent birth control. This device is easily inserted or removed by your physician during an office visit.
There are different options of IUDs: Mirena®, Kyleena, Paragard®, Skyla®, etc. Once you meet with your physician you can discuss which will be the best option for you.
Loop Electrosurgical Excision Procedure (LEEP): This procedure uses a thin electrified wire hook to cut out and extract abnormal tissues in the cervix. It is done after abnormal Pap test results that have been confirmed by a cervical biopsy and to treat cell changes in the cervix.
NEXPLANON® Insertion: NEXPLANON® is a long term form of birth control that is inserted into the arm and is over 99 percent effective at preventing pregnancy for three years.
Pessary Fitting/Insertion: A pessary is a low-risk and effective treatment option for women suffering from pelvic organ prolapse. We are able to custom fit and insert the pessary in-office so you can start feeling better, sooner.
Removal or Destruction of Condyloma: The Human Papillomavirus (HPV) causes Condyloma, or genital warts. We are able to remove and treat condyloma in-office.
Urodynamic Testing: This test is done to measure the function and efficiency of your bladder. It is done to help determine the cause of your bladder incontinence.
Vaginal Rejuvenation: Either due to childbirth or aging, the vagina can become slack or loose. During a vaginal rejuvenation procedure, the vagina is “tightened up” either for reconstructive or cosmetic purposes.
Vulvar Biopsy: A biopsy is done on the vulvar to diagnose lesions. It is a safe and simple procedure conducted in the comfort of our office.
Vulvar Revision or Labiaplasty: This is a simplified surgical procedure that revises deformities or scarring of the labia, hymen or vagina, which can be caused by childbirth or trauma of the genital area.
