Women’s lives are full and complex. Our bodies are equally intricate, and finding a physician who understands our needs and listens to our concerns is a must when it comes to taking charge of our health.
Dr. Deanna Huntwork not only understands your challenges and fears, but listens and works with you to find the best solution to your individual medical needs.
Most Common Complaints of the Female Organs
Abnormal bleeding (between periods, heavy periods with cramping, clotting etc.)
Most pelvic surgery can be performed on an outpatient basis using a Laparoscope. Laparoscopic surgery is minimally invasive. A tiny telescope is placed through a small hole under the belly button. Carbon dioxide is pumped into the belly cavity creating a space whereby the organs can be visualized with a tiny camera. Dr. Huntwork, using a TV screen, guides the instruments through two other small holes and the procedure is performed with little cutting.
Advantages of Laparoscopy include...
Major surgery without a large incision
Less pain after surgery
Shorter hospital stay
Return to work sooner
