Fibroid Institute Dallas: 100% Fibroid Focused Practice

Instead of Fibroid Surgery Choose Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE)

At Fibroid Institute Dallas, we understand that for many women with uterine fibroids a hysterectomy or myomectomy is the recommended treatment. Obstetricians and gynecologists, family physicians and health care practitioners who manage women’s health issues often advise for these surgeries. However, we also know that fibroid surgery such as a hysterectomy or a myomectomy is not the right fit for all women who wish to become fibroid free.

We understand your medical, surgical, and reproductive history—as well as personal wishes—all play a role in determining the best fibroid treatment. If you don’t currently have an alternative, please consider Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE) at our Dallas fibroid center.

How We Treat Fibroid Patients with UFE

Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE) is a highly effective non-surgical treatment option for women with symptomatic uterine fibroids who are not candidates for a hysterectomy or myomectomy. UFE allows a woman to keep her uterus. Our experienced interventional radiologists insert a small catheter into the radial artery and advance it to the uterine arteries. They inject small particles to block blood flow to the fibroid tumors, causing them to shrink and die.

Benefits of UFE for Patients

Alternative to surgery. No scarring.

In-office treatment. No hospital stay.

Shorter recovery period, 7 days in most cases.

Over 90% reduction in fibroid symptoms.

Avoids side effects of hormone therapies.

Pregnancy possible.

Patient Testimonials

See and hear how UFE has improved the lives of our patients:

“My doctor told me I needed a hysterectomy”

Lynne was diagnosed with fibroids and had a myomectomy. After her myomectomy Lynne found that she still had fibroids so it was recommended that she get a hysterectomy. Lynne decided against a hysterectomy when she discovered that UFE was a better alternative. After her successful UFE procedure and full recovery Lynne has become an advocate for women wanting to treat their fibroids without having to endure the loss of her uterus and long recovery time associated with a hysterectomy.

“I should have had this done years ago”

Ruby is a 46-year-old woman who has suffered terrible symptoms with her periods for years. Her flow was so heavy that she was going through two full packs of pads each cycle. With her heavy flow and severe cramping pain, she was staying home from work a day or two each month. The pelvic pressure, back pain, and frequent urination were interfering with her life. But she didn’t want to have surgery. She heard about Uterine Fibroid Embolization on the radio.

“I’m literally pain free”

Pamela was troubled with heavy menstrual flow, but her biggest concern was the pressure symptoms she was experiencing. She had pain during and between her periods, pelvic pressure, back pain, constipation, and urinary frequency. Although it’s unusual to get results so soon after UFE, she is pain free one week after the procedure.

“A hysterectomy did not fit into my work life”

Tamiko was seriously considering a complete hysterectomy. Due to her work, being immobilized for eight weeks was not an option for her. Hearing about the UFE procedure and Dr. Slonim transformed her outlook and offered Tamiko hope. Tamiko commented that Dr. Slonim was so easy to talk to, you feel like she’s your new best friend. The UFE procedure is a very quick process. Dr. Slonim makes the time to call and check up on how you are doing after the procedure.
