Gynecology

Overview
St. Luke’s offers a full continuum of gynecological services. These include well-woman check-ups; treatment for urinary conditions; gynecological oncology; minimally invasive treatment for uterine fibroids; alternatives to hysterectomy; treatment of endometriosis; hormonal, menstrual and menopause therapies; and robotic surgery.

St. Luke’s boasts a number of highly experienced and broadly recognized affiliated gynecologists who are skilled surgeons. Frequently, other gynecologists refer to them complex cases or patients who require repair services because they did not have initial favorable outcomes.

Our surgeons employ both open-incision surgical procedures as well as newer, more sophisticated laparoscopic, hysteroscopic and robotic surgeries. In fact, St. Luke’s is a leader in minimally invasive surgical alternatives to hysterectomy and other gynecologic procedures.
