Dr. Eve Zaritsky
Philosophy: “I was one of the original gynecologists recommending and performing excision – along with Harry Reich and others. We all “learned together” and I have done clinical research for 30 years, often involving medical and surgical treatment of endometriosis and postoperative pelvic adhesions. We have two boarded urogynecologists in my group, along with Physical Therapists experienced in pelvic floor therapy. We treat patients on a very individualized basis, every situation is different and requires a different approach.” Able to operate on DIE, bowel and lung endo. Takes all insurance.
Specializes in endometriosis as it relates to Infertility and Miscarriages and partners with Reproductive Immunologist Dr. Jeffrey Braverman. Is able to perform the uterine-saving Osada procedure in selected cases for adenomyosis. Will do ultrasound guided Nerve Blocks. He has a surgical partner that is a general hepatobiliary surgeon and they mostly operate together so he can perform hepatic, bowel, bladder excisions.
Patients with complex cases may need to seek out a surgeon with more experience.
Center of Excellence. Dr. Nezhat is an active and high profile endometriosis surgeon who was a pioneer in laproscopic procedures for excision of endometriosis. Is able to operate on Deep Infiltrating Endometriosis with an assistant surgeon. Takes some insurance but double and triple check with both his offices and insurance company before booking surgery on what exactly will be covered. Philosophy: “We treat every patient individually and separately, based on different factors, type of endometriosis, her goals, etc.”
