 Our History

In 1997 we were the first to offer uterine fibroid embolization (UFE) in the New England Region. Since then, we have treated more than 800 patients with symptomatic uterine fibroids, which is more than any individual physician team or institution in New England Region.  The key to our success has been our unique team between a gynecologist and radiologist.  This unique teamwork and full-featured practice allow us to meet the patient’s and referring physician’s needs and to provide outstanding service to them. We have achieved excellent technical success (>99%) as well as clinical success (>95%) with a low complication rate (<1%). The outcome of our procedures has compared favorably to others.
 

Our Mission

The Fibroid Center is a medical practice dedicated to treating women with symptomatic uterine fibroid tumors. It will provide the most efficient and highest quality care to patients, by combining our expertise in gynecology and radiology. We understand that the No. 1 issue with patients is "personal service." and they want to know that someone understands their concerns, and provide the best possible care. We are 100% committed to meet our patient’s expectation and needs through our widely recognized professional care.
