Presenters:
Ameet Singh, MD, Assistant Professor of Surgery; Philip Zapanta, MD, Assistant Professor of Surgery; Houtan Chaboki, MD, Facial Plastic Surgeon

When pills and sprays don’t seem to be working for your pain and pressure it’s time to consider other options. This seminar will help you understand the causes of many nasal and sinus disorders. Learn about innovative medical and surgical options, including minimally invasive techniques, as well as convenient outpatient procedures to help you breathe freely again. Also, find out about septoplasty and rhinoplasty procedures that can make you look and breathe better.

Stop Living with Problem Fibroids

Date: Wednesday, May 22
Time: 7:00 – 8:30 p.m.
Presenters:
Cherie Marfori, MD, Assistant Professor of OB/GYN; James Robinson, MD, Director of GW Fellowship in Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Surgery, Assistant Professor of OB/GYN

Have you ever been told your uterine fibroids are too large for a minimally invasive procedure? Whether you are overweight or have very large fibroids, you may qualify for a minimally invasive surgical procedure to treat them. Discuss your options with the physicians at the GW Hospital Fibroid and Menstrual Disorder Center. A minimally invasive approach to treating fibroids allows patients to go home the same day after surgery or the following morning with far less pain and a much faster recovery.
