Dr. Kathy Huang
Philosophy: “We believe in a holistic approach. We start with a detailed History and Physical and a high suspicion for Endometriosis. If patient’s reported symptoms are suspicious for endometriosis, we then obtain a MRI for endometriosis. At NYU, we have developed a MRI protocol specifically for diagnosing endometriosis and our data has shown 75% diagnostic accuracy for endometriosis lesions. We then discuss with the patient whether or not we should proceed with surgery. We only perform surgical excision. In addition, we have a team of physicians including acupuncturist, fertility specialists, nutritionist, pain management, pelvic floor physical therapists and a team of colorectal, thoracic as well as urologic surgeons that help us treat deep infiltrating endometriosis. Our goal is to optimize the patient’s pain relief as well as fertility prospect and give them back the life they deserve without pain and suffering caused by endometriosis. We have a team of surgeon, including thoracic, colorectal and urologist that work with us closely to provide optimal care to the patients. Our Acupuncturist – Lara Rosenthal, works closely with our patients. She has a great interest in both fertility and endometriosis and has been incredibly helpful with our patients seeking treatment. We truly believe in a holistic approach.” Claims to accept all insurance- contact the provider’s office for more details.

Studied under Dr. C.Y. Liu
“Dr. Arrington is recognized as a regional and national expert in advanced excision of endometriosis. Since his fellowship training, he has continued to challenge his knowledge and surgical skills to help patients with “hopeless” cases of endometriosis. By caring for patients with this disease, he and his staff understand what you have been through. They understand the frustration, hopelessness and fear that so many endometriosis patients have experienced and are prepared to help.” – endowest.net

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.
Patients with complex cases may need to seek out a surgeon with more experience.

Dr. John Dulemba does some bowel work (but brings in a colorectal surgeon for resections), does his own urinary work, does diaphragm work, and works with a thoracic surgeon for lungs. He is always challenging the status quo. Dr. Dulemba does a “second look” surgery on his patients shortly after the first surgery.
Dr. Dulemba is a former helicopter and fixed wing pilot who enjoys skiing and his car (a Tesla). He absolutely LOVES the Steelers. Other than that, he says, he has no other hobbies. “Endometriosis/ adhesions are my life”.
“Too many patients/women do not know about this disease. I also think early intervention is so much better for women.”
