Are you looking for a regular gyn or are you looking for a surgeon?

Here is the address for Dr. Worthington-Kirsch who does uterine

artery embolization:

This site has some information on Dr. Glassner and Dr. Toaff:

Here is Dr. Toaff's own website:

For myomectomies, look for a doctor who specializes in reproductive

endocrinology. They are better at preserving the uterus.

Since you are interested in herbal medicine, you could also contact Dr

Mehl-Madrona. I've seen two addresses for him on the net, one in Pittsburgh and

the other in NY. I think the NY article is more recent. I only know of this

doctor from one research report. I don't know if his quite successful results

with one trial group of women with fibroids have ever been repeated. If anyone

on this list has had any personal contact with Dr Mehl-Madrona, it would be

interesting to hear their comments.
