About our center...
The Fibroid Center was founded to provide
comprehensive evaluation and treatment of fibroids. Initially we intended
to have a single group consisting of Dr. Indman and Stanford
interventional radiologists. Unfortunately, local medical politics
prevented that from happening. Nevertheless Dr. Indman is able to evaluate
you and help you decide on the best personal treatment options. If you
choose embolization he will refer you to experts in the procedure. Very few
individual physicians are able to consider all options, so the "menu" of choices may
be limited.
Why a Fibroid Center?
Uterine Artery Embolization is performed by specialists in interventional
radiology. Radiologists are experienced in angiographic x-ray procedures, but
not in the treatment of fibroids. On the other hand,
gynecologists are not trained to do the embolization procedure. By
combining our expertise in gynecology, with interventional radiologist
who are experienced in embolization, we are able to offer
all options for fibroid treatment.
Remember that the skill and expertise your physicians helps to determine the
outcome of any treatment. There are differences in skill and experience
between physicians. We strongly suggest that before considering a
physician, you find out about the experience of that individual. Who
would you want to do your procedure: the doctor who just took a
class, or the doctor with who taught the class?
