Stars: AEEP ranks providers in five key areas and assigns stars accordingly. An endo doctor receives one star per each of these that are made evident:
- excises endo with wide margins
- majority of patients have endo *
- keeps post-surgical outcome statistics
- published/ presented work, peer-reviewed * (GnRH, Pain Management)
- usually avoids GnRH agonists
These criteria are based on our own experiences and research. Our goal is to maximize the chances of restored functionality. Talk to your doctor to see what treatment is right for you.

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.”
“I am Polish, but I have lived in US longer than any other country. I did my residency in Ob/Gyn at Cook County Hospital in Chicago and fellowship in gynecologic surgery at Mayo Clinic Scottsdale. I am a single dad with two teenagers – 13 and 15. As I always say – my favorite things in life start with letter S – surgery, skiing, sailing my son and his sister (my daughter)… As far as languages I speak Polish and some French and understand some Spanish and several Slavic languages (Czech, Slovak, Russian).” -Dr. Hibner, AEEP Questionnaire

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.
Also practices in Singapore and Italy
Pioneer and inventor in the field of minimally invasive surgery
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.
Extensive research background. Is able to operate on Deep Infiltrating Endometriosis. Philosophy: “My medical practice is characterized by my underlying philosophy of treating patients with respect and dignity. I use a comprehensive, open-‐minded approach to providing leading-‐edge health care. My reputation as an endometriosis specialist was earned through my surgical skills and results following successful treatment of some the most difficult cases of endometriosis via laparoscopic excision surgery. Complete surgical removal of endometriosis is an essential step in achieving successful treatment outcomes. I believe that surgery is only part of the answer to restoring the health of patients with endometriosis and pelvic pain. I employ a multidisciplinary approach, utilizing leading edge, traditional Western medicine and alternative integrative medicine, combined with an open mind and trust in the patient. Treating this complex disease has not only resulted in my becoming a better physician, it has made me an expert in treating an array of less complex conditions as well.”
