Excerpt:
“It’s one of the most painful chronic illnesses in the world, sneakily causing debilitating pain for millions of women. You can almost never see it on an ultrasound or other scans. It often takes 10 years for a woman to get diagnosed with it, and even longer, if ever, to receive treatment. And even though it’s estimated that one in eight women will be diagnosed with the condition, few doctors know how to diagnose it. Even fewer can effectively treat it. Though not considered a fatal condition, the pain felt from endometriosis is known to greatly impact quality of life, and often leads to mental health struggles when left untreated.
One of these rare doctors is Rachael Haverland, a pelvic surgeon and endometriosis specialist at Pelvic Rehabilitation Medicine in the Preston Hollow area.”
What is endometriosis and how is it treated at PRM?
Endometriosis is a systemic, inflammatory disease that requires a multidisciplinary approach to treat the pain and symptoms related to the condition.
At PRM, we work to reverse the neurogenic inflammatory process in the pelvis because it helps to decrease the chances of endometriosis growing back. Endo grows when it is surrounded by inflammatory cytokines, so our goal is to keep that inflammation under control, and keep our patients pain-free and functioning. This treatment is provided through the PRM Protocol™, a direct treatment to the inflamed nerves and spastic muscles of the pelvic floor.
With three endometriosis excision surgeons, located in New York and New Jersey, Washington DC, and Texas, Pelvic Rehabilitation Medicine offers patiens the expertise needed to treat endometriosis, and care for the disease in over the long term.
Real Patient Review of Dr. Haverland
“I had the most amazing experience at PRM! I went in ready to fight to make sure someone took me seriously, and I was taken aback when Dr. Haverland not only believed me right away but helped me feel that I was worth finding relief. I finished having surgery a bit over a week ago and as scary as it was just because it’s surgery, the whole experience was the absolute best it could have been. Dr. Haverland has even called me several times just to check on me! I can’t even begin to say how helpful, kind, and encouraging she has been. I would absolutely recommend PRM!” – Hope A.
