Thanks to Dr. G he is the best at the fibroid game, trust me it's no other procedure you should do other than image guided surgery it's super safe and painless. If you are a woman suffering from fibroids he is the man to see most definitely. He made my wife feel like she has a purpose again and she is actually a lot better because of him, thanks again Dr.Gaugau.

I recently underwent uterine fibroid embolization (UFE), and I’m very thankful for the outcome. The procedure itself was quick (done in under an hour) and required only a short recovery time. I was able to go home the same day and was back to light activities within a week. The pain during recovery was manageable with medication, and the medical team provided great support throughout. Of course, every experience is different, and UFE might not be for everyone. But for me, it was the right choice. I highly recommend Dr. GauGau. He’s very understanding, knowledgeable, and light hearted.

Dr. GauGau is very friendly and knows how to connect to his patient. He is very knowledgeable and gives very clear advice. His ability to make one feel comfortable because of his genuine care is admirable . After just two weeks of my surgery, I felt relief from constant bloating , heaviness, frequent urination due to pressure on my pelvic. The staff are very friendly and helpful. It is one of those places you go in depressed and you come out feeling hopeful and well. I will always recommend Dr. GauGau

WOW! Where do I even start! I typically do not write reviews. However, I had to do a review on the professionalism of Dr. GauGau and his staff.1. Scheduling - Scheduling is absolutely easy. You can get an appointment almost the next day after you call. The ladies at the front desk are super nice and welcoming.2. 1st Consultation Appointment - Dr. GauGau is friendly and very knowledgeable about fibroids and gives you the BEST option for your care. He recommended that I obtain all the necessary test before the procedure.3. Day of Procedure (Prep Time) - The day of the procedure was so effortless and informative. I was excited yet anxious. The nurse Bonnie is AMAZING!! She explained everything to me and the medications she was giving me.4. Procedure Time - Dr. GauGau came in right before he performed the fibroid embolization and ensured me that everything will be okay! The actual procedure felt like it took 25 minutes (probably due to the light sedation) LOL!!5. Post Procedure - I was up and walking around with little pain and Bonnie went over my home care again with me.6. Home Care - My pain was mostly cramping which was mild. The next day I felt amazing. I could not believe how good I felt.If you're on the fence about the fibroid embolization procedure, please do not hesitate any longer. Call Dr. GauGau right now!!! Dr. GauGau will answer all your questions and ensure that you understand your options. I'm so thrilled I found Dr. GauGau and his wonderful practice.Thank you Dr. GauGau and staff for taking GREAT care of me.Dionne

And Just like that my fibroids are gone!! It's crazy that I only knew of 6 and actually had 27!! Its been a week and I feel great!! Thank you Dr.Gaugau and Staff!! You guys are so awesome and genuine. The ladies at the desk made me feel so fearless I appreciate them.so much. Thanks for the small talks. I can't remember names but the lady who prepared me before surgery was so helpful and gave me so much comfort. My surgery was the Wednesday before Mother's Day. I was able to spread so much knowledge that some of my family are going to get checked out because they didn't know. My womb feels so healthy. And I lost weight. After my fibroids were removed I went from 181lb to 176lb. Thank you again Dr.Gaugau and Staff!! 🥰♥️
