Hysterectomy Options and Menopause IL

Gynecology has come a long way in recent years, giving doctors and patients new and better alternatives to hysterectomy and menopause/perimenopause treatment. At Women Ob-Gyn Associates, Drs. Naheed R. Akhter, Elaine R. Cheng and Amy K. Gaunt are experienced with the latest, minimally invasive surgical techniques, as well as hormone replacement therapy and care for women approaching menopause.
Da Vinci, hormone replacement, menopause care and more.

We offer abdominal, vaginal, laparoscopic and the da Vinci Surgical System® for hysterectomies and other gynecological surgeries. The da Vinci Surgical System is widely touted as today’s most effective, least invasive surgical treatment option – an effective alternative to traditional open surgery and laparoscopy. That means improved precision, significantly less pain and a faster return to normal activities. Dr. Akhter performs all the daVinci surgeries.

Urinary Incontinence Grove IL

Urinary Incontinence

Solutions for bladder control problems.

Bladder control problems are much more common than you might think. And they can affect women of all ages. Many women also have relaxed muscles and structures around the pelvic organs. Because this is so personal, many women avoid telling their doctor. They don’t realize just how common – or treatable – they are. But with the care of an understanding, sensitive, compassionate and skilled doctor, a leaky bladder can be repaired effectively and comfortably.
Whether you have frequent urges or you leak, you know how embarrassed you feel. Many women avoid social events or their favorite activities. They often feel badly about themselves. Bladder problems can be caused by aging, certain diseases, bodily defects and even some prescription medications.
