While we don’t offer hernia repair as a standalone procedure, we can repair the hernia at the same time as your planned gynecologic surgery when it’s medically appropriate. This combined approach allows you to avoid having two separate operations, two anesthesia events, and two recoveries.

A uterine septum (or septate uterus) is a congenital structural difference in the uterus where a band of tissue divides the uterine cavity. For many, it’s discovered during fertility evaluation or imaging, while for others, it can be linked to pregnancy loss or discomfort with menstruation.

Polyps are commonly found in patients who are struggling to conceive. Fortunately, there’s a simple, effective treatment that doesn’t require any incisions: a hysteroscopic polypectomy.

At ESSE Care, we use advanced hysteroscopic techniques to remove polyps, fibroids, scar tissue, and other structural issues without major surgery whenever possible, helping patients avoid multiple procedures and long recovery times. We combine advanced technology with compassionate care to help you feel informed, supported, and hopeful.

Scar tissue inside the uterus—called intrauterine adhesions, or Asherman’s Syndrome when severe—can interfere with fertility, disrupt menstrual flow, or cause pain during periods. It often forms after surgery or infection and may not be visible on routine imaging.

Hysteroscopy means a camera inserted in the vagina, into the cervix and then into the uterine cavity. This can be performed with ease by inserting the camera vaginally “touchless” if the cervix is already pre-dilated (vaginoscopy) and inserting directly into the cervix.

Endometriosis excision surgery is a minimally invasive procedure that removes endometriosis tissue completely from the body. This approach is performed through small abdominal incisions using either laparoscopic instruments or robotic-assisted technology.

Scar tissue inside the pelvis or abdomen, known as adhesions, can develop after surgery, infection, or chronic pelvic conditions such as endometriosis.
