In-office procedures
The doctors at Carmel OBGYN are pleased to introduce our patients to our In-Office Procedure program. Many of the procedures we have done over the years have been modified so they can be safely and easily performed on properly selected patients here in the Blakeney Office*.
Over the past year we have performed the following procedures here in the office:
- Diagnostic Hysteroscopy
- Femvue
- Novasure Endometrial Ablations
Our surgical coordinator is skilled in determining the financial responsibility each patient will have both in the ambulatory surgery center, hospital setting and in the office.
Feel free to contact your physician if you are interested in any of the procedures listed above to see whether or not you would be a good candidate.*
*Not all patients are considered good candidates for in-office procedures. This is best determined by consultation with your primary physician here at Carmel.
