Stephen H. Weiss, MD, has many years of experience in performing minimally invasive surgery, including vaginal hysterectomy, laparoscopic hysterectomy, laparoscopic ovary, tubal and laser surgery.
Dr. Weiss can provide treatment for nearly all types of fibroid issues. He has extensive experience with traditional treatment methods such as myomectomy (via incision or via hysteroscope), minimally invasive hysterectomy, and open hysterectomy which can typically be done with a “bikini” cut even with very large fibroids.
He performs a relatively new treatment named the Acessa procedure, (laparoscopic fibroid ablation), a minimally invasive, outpatient treatment that involves small abdominal incisions. It causes coagulation of the fibroid tissue. The treated tissue softens and shrinks over time, allowing fibroid symptoms to resolve with no suturing of the uterine tissue. Many women typically experience minimal discomfort after the procedure and typically can return to work within four to five days. Most importantly, this procedure provides his patients with long-term satisfaction and relief.
