“Dr. Mosbrucker feels strongly that both pelvic pain and the urogynecologic issues need to be addressed with a multidisciplinary approach that embraces the “bio-psycho-social model”. She has developed an informal consortium of various specialists, all with interest in caring for patients with pelvic pain or incontinence. This allows for multiple providers to support the patient’s needs with an approach based on each one’s background and experiences. Physical therapists, pain management specialists, counselors, GI specialists, and surgeons all bring something different to the table, and it is her belief that the patients get better and more complete care when treated by a team rather than one single provider.” -http://pacificendometriosis.com/about-us/
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.

“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: “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.
