I just LOVE Dr Gaugau! He is so caring honest attentive and empathetic when it comes to women’s health and that is so rare in today’s healthcare industry that functions more like a business for profit that could care less about the actual patient! But NOT Dr Gaugau….I thank God my path crossed with his when it did (which preserved my uterus-thank God)

I’m so grateful I decided to get a second opinion from Dr. Gaugau. He was kind, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable. He took the time to listen to my concerns, thoroughly explained everything, and made me feel confident in my care. He put me on the right path, and I truly believe I made the right decision by seeing him. I highly recommend Dr. Gaugau to anyone looking for a physician who genuinely cares about his patients and provides excellent medical care.Finally took care of my fibroids issue. I did the least invasive UFE and I am beyond happy. I’m up and back to normal after 1 week. The care from Dr. Gau Gau and his team during and after surgery was remarkable. 🙏🏾

I had my UFE procedure with Dr. Gaugau in May 2026 as my fibroid was steadily growing and leaning on my sciatic nerve. I was referred to him via an old co-worker/friend when I shared with her that Danielle Salley from Waldorf Women's Care told me that if I was considering the UFE, I might as well go under anesthesia for a hysterectomy. I was upset, hurt and confused as I did not have the "typical" symptoms of a woman my age and she did not even take the time to review my medical file and history.Dr. GauGau and his team put me at ease and were always professional and personable. It has been 4 months, and I feel wonderful as I followed/am following his after-surgery instructions along with felling healthier overall. Trust your gut, PRAY and get a consultant appointment with this practice. I no longer have pain, and my weight is going down in a moderate pace by increasing my exercise and changing my diet---basically a lifestyle adjustment. I know I made the right choice!

I had a bit of anxiety with having the fibroid embolization done but Dr. Gaugau and the staff were incredibly comforting. Everyone was helpful and very kind. I am 3 months post procedure and my cycle has not only shortened, but the pain has decreased significantly as well. Dr. Gaugau also assisted after hours when we needed. I would definitely recommend this office to anyone who is experiencing the horrors of having fibroids. This procedure has been life altering!-Brandon
