NovaSure®

Does your menstrual cycle seem abnormally long or heavy? Our physicians are proud to offer NovaSure®; a quick, safe, simple, one-time endometrial ablation treatment which gently cauterizes the lining of the uterus to control heavy bleeding. An advance in women’s health, the ablation is completed in about 90 seconds and only needs to be performed once to lighten or stop your periods. Without the side effects of hormones or the risks of hysterectomy, NovaSure is a minor procedure which can even be performed in the office, with a quick recovery time so you can go on with your life sooner. Speak with your doctor about Novasure and other treatment options for heavy periods.

da Vinci® Surgical System

Richmond OB-Gyn Associates is proud to offer minimally invasive surgery options to our patients through the use of the da Vinci® Surgical System. Richmond OB-Gyn is able to perform procedures with a state-of-the-art surgical system designed to perform an effective, minimally invasive alternative to both open surgery and laparoscopy.

Imagine major surgery performed through the smallest of incisions. Imagine having the benefits of a definitive treatment but with the potential for significantly less pain, a shorter hospital stay, faster return to normal daily activities – as well as the potential for better clinical outcomes.

Thanks to a breakthrough surgical technology, there is a new category of minimally invasive surgery for which you may be a candidate.
