Dr Gau Gau was very kind and helpful. I felt like someone is finally listening to me. He is very knowledgeable, answers all questions and you don't feel rushed like other offices. Sharise is very knowledgeable as well and polite! I'm so happy to have found this office. Bonnie and her medical assistant were awesome. Bonnie explained everything to me, patient, and had great bed side manner! I will definitely be referring others and i am so thank for this office and staff who literally changed my life.

I went to Dr Gau Gau with 3 large fibroids and a very bad monthly cycle. I did not want to get a hysterectomy and he said I did not have to… It has been 3 months since my procedure and I feel GREAT!!!

I have never felt so welcomed in a doctor’s office! The esthetic of the office is beautiful and immediately makes you feel uplifted. The staff were extremely friendly and welcoming and Dr. Gau Gau was nice, professional, pleasant, thorough, informative and made me feel comfortable about my next steps. They are truly the standard here in healthcare.

My experience with Dr. Gau Gau was simply amazing. The care he took in evaluating me to the procedure and the after care was excellent. I would recommend him to anyone!

Let me start off by thanking God that I came across Dr. Gau Gau’s website while doing a Google research on doctors in the DMV area that are fibroid specialists. By this time, I had seen a few doctors that recommended that I receive an open myomectomy. However, I did not want to take that route. I decided to continue to seek other opinions / options.From the moment I contacted Dr. Gau Gau for a consultation appointment, the process was smooth and Shanice coordinated an appointment for me to come in right away. Dr. Gau Gau made me feel at ease about my condition and thoroughly walked me through my fibroid concerns while looking at my MRI scans that I shared during my appointment.No doctor that I seen for my fibroids made me feel comfortable like Dr. Gau Gau. The other docs that I visited made me feel as if cutting me open was my only option and that I needed to act right away. I have several fibroids and one of my fibroids is a size of a melon. I decided to move forward with receiving the UFE procedure to avoid open surgery. The day of the procedure was smooth and nurse Bonnie made me feel very comfortable right before the procedure.At the time of posting this review, I am writing this on my 1-week Post procedure. I’ve noticed some reduction of stomach bloating. My symptoms have been moderate to mild, very much like menstrual symptoms. I’ve seen a mixture of reviews regarding symptoms. And I believe Its just depends on how an individual’s body will respond to the procedure. Overall, I would recommend to look no further and schedule an appointment to see Dr. Gau Gau! The entire team radiates kindness and good energy!

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.

Life permitted me a moment in time to seek immediate medical care and thankfully, Dr.Gaugau's practice had immediate availability to properly evaluate my medical issues. As soon as results were processed and reviewed, his availability, reliability and medical care was immediate. Both Dr.Gaugau and his staff delivers medical excellence with compassion that all practices should aspire too. I am grateful for the compassion, excellence in Healthcare services. Thank you is an underwhelming statement for the platinum level status of medical care along with medical services.

I had an amazing experience at The Fibroid Center Image Guided Surgery from start to finish. The level of care and professionalism I received made what could have been a stressful experience feel comfortable and reassuring. First, I want to recognize Shanice. From scheduling my appointments to making follow-up calls, she was always kind, professional, and genuinely caring. She made the entire administrative process so easy and always made me feel like I was more than just a patient. Bonnie (RN) was absolutely wonderful!! She was professional, helpful, and made the preparation before my surgery so comfortable. She never left my side, checked on me frequently, and made sure I felt supported every step of the way. Her kindness and compassion meant so much to me. And a HUGE thank you to Dr. Gaugau. He was incredibly kind, straightforward, and reassuring throughout the entire process. He kept me calm, explained everything clearly, and was by my side every step of the way. My procedure went smoothly, and I truly felt I was in excellent hands. I couldn't be happier with the care I received. I highly recommend The Fibroid Center Image Guided Surgery to anyone looking for exceptional care. Every member of the team treated me with kindness, respect, and professionalism and I am so grateful for the outstanding experience. ❤️

Dr. Gaugau and his team are wonderful. Their caring and compassion comes through the phone whenever I check in with them. It's only been a week and a half since my procedure and I am still healing. I know that I can reach out to them with questions during my recovery and they will give me reassurance right away.

I was told by my gynecology office that there was nothing wrong and I needed to do kegels. I went back about 2 months later and another doctor at my GYN office did an exam and found fibroids which turned out to be 2 that were the size of my uterus. The GYN told me they were too big to do anything other than a hysterectomy. I went to Dr. Gaugau and he let me know they could be removed with embolization and that every doctor wants to remove the uterus instead of embolization. I was afraid of a hysterectomy because it increases the risk of heart disease and the risk of hormonal imbalance which can lead to mental illness not to me lion all of the other things that can go wrong with major surgery. Dr. Gaugau was very comforting throughout the whole process and even when I had a bump in the road he helped me get through it!

Dr Gaugau is very knowledgeable and well versed in the matters concerning fibroids. I had an issue with coughing for 3 years and went to various specialists only to discover oversized fibroids pushed on my stomach causing acid to come into my throat. That information alone excited me. The facility gives a calming effect like that of a beach. The reception is nice, professional, and attentive. I’m so sorry it took me so long to come to meet him. I can’t wait to have my procedure. I will update this after.

I’ve been struggling with concern and despair about my health. I didn’t seek a second opinion because my previous doctor insisted there were only two options. That wasn’t true.Dr. Gaugau is out here helping women like me and giving us hope for tomorrow. Knowing that he studies, attends conferences, and relies on scientific evidence makes me even more grateful and excited to be his patient. So kind and gently in talking about the practice and he’s staff is adorable. Those little cuties at the front desk really make your visit pleasant and that’s rare. Bless him forever.

Dr Gaugau is heaven sent. Not only he operated on me twice and both times were successfully done. I had fibromyalgia the first time around, in 2023 and it never came back. The second surgery was to treat my ovaries and uterine lining issues, and I never felt lighter than a feather afterwards. When the procedure was over I had zero pain during the healing process. I was so amazed! I trust him and I will always appreciate him for doing such an extraordinary work on me. His staff members are very nice and pleasant! I highly recommend Dr Gaugau. Thank you so much Dr Gaugau! May God continue to bless you, to help those in need as well.

My experience with Dr. G. was very informative. I liked the fact that he listened to all of my concerns without the feeling of being rushed out for the next patient. I felt heard. I would recommend him to the next female, or friend/family, that I speak to with concerns about what's going on with her body. Thank you Dr. GAUGAU for your professionalism in dealing with my case.

Dr. Gaugau and his staff provide individualized care to each patient. From my initial consultation visit to my post procedure visit, the compassion and care is undeniable. Because of the difficulty with my condition, Dr. Gaugau took the time to explain what it is I am experiencing and how treatment will resolve the issue. Most OBGYNs will recommend a hysterectomy without hesitation, but Dr. Gaugau takes time to explain the pros and cons of all of the procedures. All of your questions will be answered with compassion and professionalism. I highly recommend a consultation with his office if you are suffering with adenomyosis and/or fibroids.

I was referred to Dr. Gau Gau by a friend’s sister who spoke highly of him, and my first visit on May 29, 2026 was a great experience.He made me feel comfortable right away. We had a well-rounded conversation, and when we discussed my fibroids, he was able to identify my condition before even reviewing my prior records. After seeing my results, he confirmed exactly what he had explained, which gave me a lot of confidence in his expertise.Overall, I felt at ease and confident moving forward with my procedure. The entire staff—from the front desk to his assistants—was professional, welcoming, and supportive. A+ experience

I AM SO GRATEFUL that I found Dr. Gaugau and staff, they are the best! I have been suffering with horrible painful periods and heavy bleeding since I started at 11 years old, I am now 44. The doctors and gynecologist that I've seen in the past, would either say it's nothing wrong or just try to put me on birth control. Finally at the age of 38, my gynecologist scheduled me for surgery for endometriosis which I was so happy to finally get some relief and answers to why I have such horrible peiords, have never been able to conceive, and my anemia. Unfortunately, the surgery did not go as expected because the gynecologist said that I have fibroids, not endometriosis. She said that if she remove the fibroids, it can cause worse damage and she referred me to a infertility clinic. She suggested that I get a hysterectomy. I was upset because I felt like I went through a surgery for no reason. I was confused and didn't understand how the infertility doctor could see fibroids on my ultrasound, but my gynecologist didn't. Needless to say, I ended up having to receive two blood transfusion because my hemoglobin was extremely low. That's when I knew I had to find a doctor that I could trust and that specialized in fibroids. I googled and came across Dr. Gaugau. He had so many great reviews and success stories, so I gave them call. The front office ladies were so knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. They answered all of my questions which made me feel confident that I called the right place. I love them for that! I traveled from the 757 area of Virginia to meet with Dr. Gaugau for my consultation. He was so nice and showed so much concern and empathy. He also answered every question I had. Once he reviewed my MRI images, he immediately knew what my issues were. Not only did I have multiple fibroids, but I had Adenomyosis. I had no clue what Adenomyosis was and my gynecologist had the same MRI results and had never mentioned that. Dr. Gaugau explained what Adenomyosis was and confirmed that was what caused me the most issues. He told me that the Uterine Fibroid Embolization would be my best option for Adenomyosis and Fibroids. I prayed and felt in my heart that I could trust Dr. Gaugau, so I scheduled the surgery. OMG, when my surgery date came October 15, 2025, I was a nervous wreck! However, I did it!!! Now, I am just speaking for me when I say this, because everyone's pain tolerance is different, but after surgery that pain damn near killed me, my grandmother even cried for me that night because it was horrible. I regretted those next couple of days...HOWEVER, I DIDN'T REGRET IT AFTER MY SECOND PERIOD AND NOW ALMOST 7 MONTHS LATER, I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO REGRETS!! When my cycle comes, No more heavy bleeding and no more horrible cramps. This was one of the best decisions I made in my entire life! I am sooooo grateful. I could barely leave the house when my cycle came because of the pain and I always messed my clothes up. I would bleed through an super plus tampon and a overnight thick pad within an 30 to 45 mins for 2-3 days. NOW, I forgot that my cycle is on and I can leave home comfortably without the fear of being embarrassed from bleeding through my clothes. I wish I would've known this 30 years ago because I literally suffered badly every month for years!!! I would recommend Dr Gaugau and I would recommend this surgery for anyone who is suffering like I did.

Dr. Gaugau has truly been a lifesaver for me. After prior unsuccessful treatment from other practices, I was referred to Dr. Gaugau. From day one, he has provided exceptional care and concern and answered all my questions to ensure understanding. He immediately reassured me during the initial consult that the recommended procedure would be beneficial. I had my procedure in March 2026, recovered well, and weeks later I am feeling better than ever. The follow up visit also went well 2 weeks post procedural and I have witnessed the exceptional care by Dr. Gaugau. I am proud to be under his care.The entire team has been great!

I just had Uterine Artery Embolization done on 4/06/2026 to treat fibroids and adenomyosis. I found the practice online via google search and I decided to give it a try. As of today, I am recovering very well and going about my normal business. I will be back with a detailed update in three months time when the Fibroids are expected to have shrank, heavy bleeding stopped and uterine lining in a great condition. The staff are very amazing and Dr. Gaugau is an excellent listener who has a passion for making women’s life easier and better. I highly recommend him!

I am writing to express my sincere gratitude for the exceptional care you provided me.I was initially scheduled for a hysterectomy and was looking for other options when my OB/GYN recommended you. I truly appreciate how promptly you attended to me. Your kindness in holding my hands and reassuring me that everything was going to be fine made a significant difference in my experience.I am happy to share that the surgery was very successful.

Thank you to the awesome staff at the Fibroids Center. My embolization procedure went well. The front desk staff, nurse Bonny and Dr. G is amazing. Made me feel comfortable and provided me with overwhelming information about my fibroids. I recently had my procedure and I am confident that it was a success. Thank you to all the staff!!! Literally the best customer service I ever received from a doctor’s office. Even the front desk staff is informative and amazing. Also they answer calls or call back soon. So glad I found them listening to the radio. This was my second opinion and the best!

I had a UFE procedure done with Dr. Gaugau one week ago and I can honestly say it was a great experience from start to finish.Dr. Gaugau was very pleasant to work with. He took the time to explain everything clearly, listened to all of my concerns, and was very understanding of how terrified I was going into the procedure. He reassured me every step of the way, which really helped calm my nerves.On the day of the procedure, I have to give a special shoutout to his nurse, Ms. Bonnie. She was absolutely amazing. She kept me calm, walked me through everything step by step, and answered all of my questions even when I asked the same ones multiple times (and kept asking about the pain meds lol). She never once made me feel like I was bothering her. You can truly tell she loves what she does and genuinely cares about her patients. And the cookies and juice afterward were right on time!I also want to thank the front desk staff. You all were so kind, patient, and supportive. Just talking to you helped ease my anxiety more than you know.Overall, it’s clear why Dr. Gaugau has been in practice for over 30 years. The level of care and professionalism is top-tier. I highly recommend him to anyone considering this procedure.

I had fibroids approximately 6 years ago and was referred to Dr. Gau Gau. The procedure went perfectly and improved my quality of life exponentially. Recently I went to a gynecologist for a routine check up and was told that my fibroids, eventhough I was experiencing no symptoms. I was told to get a hysterectomy eventhough I insisted that I had a fibroid embolization procedure already performed, this gynecologist insisted that i need a hysterectomy. I decided to go back to Dr. Gau Gau who went through everything i should be experiencing with my fibroids, in which I was experiencing none. Dr. Gau Gau examined me and said not only do I not need a hysterectomy, I also do not need another fibroid embolization. Dr. Gau Gau proceeded to educate me on what the previous gynecologist saw. Turns out the previous gynecologist saw an empty shell of my previous fibroids. I am so glad I went with my instincts and went to Dr. Gau Gau, he saved my life twice!

The Fibroid Center is all that they say and more. From you enter that aquamarine office, it's like stepping into a different world of hope that puts you at ease. Each person has been professional, responsive and caring. Dr. Gaugau puts your mind at ease and explains everything thoroughly. They are like the last line of defense against this wave and push by other practioners for hysterectomy. But for me, they gave me hope, and worked quickly with my other treatment team to stop the hemorrhaging from a previous surgery.Update: I just had surgery and everything that was explained that I would go through, feel, or experience has been the case. So, I have stuck to their guidance and have not been disappointed yet. Thank you team, nurse Boonie, and front desk ladies. You have been a pleasure to encounter.

Dr. Gaugau provides exceptional service and care, even years later. I originally saw Dr. Gaugau in 2023 to address uterine fibroids. The procedure went well, as did post operation follow ups. I recently saw Dr. Gaugau to answer some questions that came up as a result of some recent imaging that I had done. He was able to walk me through the old MRI images that he had done as well as the recent CT scan images that I brought along for the visit and help explain what the new images were suggesting. He’s such a great doctor. I’d recommend him and his team to anyone!

Dr. GauGau and his team provide exceptional care and customer service. From the initial scheduling, the staff was remarkably supportive, explaining every step of the process to ease my anxiety. Dr. GauGau is incredibly knowledgeable and reiterated that if treatment is necessary, he prioritizes the least invasive options. He was thorough in requesting bloodwork and imaging to ensure he fully understood my situation. I felt completely comfortable and far less concerned after being seen by him. They truly made a difficult process much easier.

My Journey to Healing: A Thank You to Dr. Nordine GaugauFor a long time, I felt like my life was being scheduled around my symptoms. Like many women dealing with fibroids, I spent years navigating discomfort, exhaustion, and the feeling that my options were limited. That changed the moment I walked into The Fibroid Center at Image Guided Surgery.Finding a Specialist Who ListensFrom the start, Dr. Nordine Gaugau stood out. It isn't just his impressive background in image-guided surgery; it’s his approach to patient care. He didn't just look at my scans; he looked at me. He took the time to explain the science behind my condition and the specifics of the procedure in a way that felt empowering rather than clinical. For the first time, I didn't feel like a "case"—I felt like a partner in my own health.The Experience at The Fibroid CenterThe facility itself reflects the high standard of care Dr. Gaugau maintains. The environment is professional, modern, and—most importantly—calm. The entire staff at the center deserves praise for their seamless coordination. They handled the logistics with such ease that I was able to focus entirely on my preparation and recovery.A New Lease on LifeThe procedure was a success, but the "after" is what really matters. The chronic pain and heaviness that I had accepted as my "normal" are gone. My energy has returned, and I finally feel like I have control over my body again.To anyone currently suffering in silence or feeling overwhelmed by your diagnosis: there is hope, and there are experts like Dr. Gaugau who prioritize minimally invasive solutions and patient dignity. I am so deeply grateful to Dr. Gaugau and his team for their skill, their kindness, and for quite literally giving me my life back.

It has been about seven months since my procedure, and I can honestly say it was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made for my health and quality of life.I was very nervous in the beginning and actually took over a year before I felt ready to move forward. Looking back now, I’m so grateful that I did. My recovery went well, and the long-term results have been incredible. My periods are now light, last about three days, and I have no cramping at all which still feels unreal to say. I’ve dealt with extremely painful, heavy periods since my teenage years, and now at 35, I finally feel relief.I intentionally waited several months before writing this review because I wanted to truly see how my body responded over time. While I noticed improvements early on, the past couple of months have really confirmed that this procedure was absolutely worth it. The changes have been consistent and life-changing.If I were ever faced with fibroids again or any similar complications in the future, I would not hesitate to choose this procedure again. I’m incredibly thankful for the care, reassurance, and expertise throughout the process. This decision has genuinely improved my day-to-day life, and I’m so happy I trusted myself and my doctor.

LIFE CHANGING!My review is long overdue, as I had my procedure on May 27, 2022. I only wish I’d found Dr. Gaugau sooner, as now I am in perimenopause and UFE could’ve helped me tremendously during my younger years.Although recovery for me was BRUTAL, it was all worth it. I now have ZERO cramps, when before, the cramping was debilitating. I used to bleed for more than a week and the clots that came out of me were insane. Now, I only use pantiliners and light-flow pads. Dr. Gaugau was wonderful from beginning to end. The ladies who assisted him in the office/provided reception, were absolute jewels (I feel bad that I can’t remember their names).I deducted a star because I had an experience that I did not like: the (white) nurse who assisted Dr. Gaugau during my procedure asked probing questions about my tattoos (that she was only able to see because I was in a hospital gown). Questioning a patient while she's in a vulnerable state about her decision to make modifications to her body, is offensive and highly unprofessional. I do not recall her name, as it’s going on four years, but I’m hoping she’s no longer part of his staff. Aside from this, I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Gaugau.

I can sum my whole experience up in a few words but I will expand. The word I would use for my visit with the staff and the doctor is, Exceptional! The staff are attentive and they make you feel like they Truly care! I think the doctor sets the tone for the office because he makes you feel comfortable and like he Truly cares! So with such cohesiveness within the office it makes you wonder why aren’t All doctors and staff the same way? If all visits were like the one I had, people wouldn’t be so apprehensive about doctors and their level of care! Dr. Gauguau office should be a model for other doctor’s offices welcome and treat their patients! When I tell you, if I could’ve given a 100 star rating it would’ve been Truly deserving! Thank you to him and his staff! Keep up the Awesome work!

Dr. GAUGAU and his staff are amazing. Very patient very kind very responsive and very empathetic. Dr. GAUGAU really really was there for me. I’ve been dealing with fibroids for years well over 10+ years I found out I had PCOS and he provided me some resources for that. My uterine fibroid symbolization was successful. My follow up appointment was marvelous. I definitely appreciate Dr. GAUGAU and his entire team.

It's a different environment the front office staff are warm and inviting. Dr. Gaugau and even his nurse makes you feel like a human being not just a number. Yes, go visit Dr. Gaugau and see what he can do for you.

It’s a pleasure to leave a review for this entire team! I am very particular as well as a critical care nurse, I truly knew after speaking to Dr Guagua for the first visit things would go well. He has wondering bedside manner, talks to you with genuine care and concern and even does the extra step to talk about other resources before you ask!Then you have the great team to add to it!! Nurse Bonnie takes her time and explain which I also love. The front desk team are very polite each time/ visit. You guys keep doing what you do it’s amazing and rare!! 🙌🏽

I was so pleased and grateful for the way Dr.GauGau explained the process and made sure any other health issues were okay before the procedure. Also BIG kudos to Nurse Bonnie , she is very caring, patient and knowledgeable of the procedure and all of post op information. God bless them to continue to help women with this issue.

Dr. Gaugau and his team have really made a positive impact on me, especially with such a challenging situation. It’s a relief to feel that sense of peace when I walked in his office today, especially after dealing with stress and frustration. I’m glad I found a team that not only addresses your medical needs but also gives you that comfort and trust.

Thank you all so much for clearing the air after seeing numerous of doctors to finally hear the words “no fibroids”. What I have is not normal and for all the doctors that told me it is, I will never visit them again because I felt lied to. Thank you all so much, I will now take the next steps to figure this out and one day get back to my regular self. I’m grateful that I can finally relax on this issue and will be sending my female friends whoever experiences any issues.UpdateAs of 01/26/24 I was told I have fibroids and have no clue when it came or why it wasn’t detected. So this was told to me at another doctor office.New Update belowAs of 12/3/25 the fibroids have been officially removed thanks to my doctor and nurses in at Luminis Health Annapolis. I am not sure how you all didn’t catch it when Annapolis OBGYN did the same thing including the ultrasound and pelvic exam. The fibroids was 3-4cm and none of those symptoms that I was having from age 10 to 32 was not normal. My suggestion do not tell anyone that they don’t have fibroids when in reality they do and you all need to do a better job when it comes to checking. This could have been done a long time ago if everyone was honest and it was there this whole time. Also had endometriosis and cuts so I’m not sure how you all didn’t pick that up.Happy holidays!

Update - I had my procedure last week and Nurse Bonnie was very clear and concise about the post care after the procedure, I felt so well prepared to manage pain and my healing. Dr Gau Gau gave me relief from a long time of pain. I was able to stop the pain meds within 48 hours and began moving around very well. This was the best decision I made.Dr GauGau and staff are very professional, pleasant and thorough. My consultation left me very informed and I scheduled my procedure before leaving the office.

Dr. Gaugau is Wonderful; as well as, his assistant and receptionists. He takes his time with you and doesn't rush you out of his office. He answers all of my questions and includes some humor as well. It is a very welcoming and comfortable environment. I always leave with a smile. I am having no issues after the procedure; therefore, I would recommend him if you are looking for a very knowledgeable and caring professional.

spelling that wrong!) at the front desk, to Bonnie in the back—and of course, the amazing doctor GAUGAU—I’ve had the most professional care I’ve ever experienced here! I had an appointment today, and Bonnie made me feel so calm and comfortable. She’s incredibly knowledgeable and kind. The doctor was also great, and the procedure was quick and smooth. I never had to wait to be seen and never felt rushed. I would absolutely recommend this practice to everyone! Very clean environment!

Two previous doctors I went to misdiagnosed me saying I had a large Fibroid, then just brushed me off telling me to take Tylenol. Dr.GauGau knew something wasn’t right, and requested an MRI. He told me I actually have a severe case of Adenomyosis, not a fibroid! I had my UAE procedure yesterday 9/18! The nurse was very patient, nice and informative! Dr.GauGau is also very kind and super professional. I’m looking forward FINALLY to a pain free life! Something only Dr.GauGau cared enough to help me with. I’ll update more as time goes by and I’m more recovered!

Dr. Gaugau is a truly an expert in his field. For two years I had been suffering with symptoms that every other doctor misdiagnosed. Dr. Gaugau requested the correct testing and labs and uncovered the root cause of my issues. He took the time to review the test results and educated me about the condition and the treatment option. I’m grateful that I found him and look forward to improved health. Thanks Dr. Gaugau!

Dr. Gaugau has been amazing! The MRI came back with some concerns. He took a consultative approach in my care by working with a hematologist and gastroenterologist to ensure all of my scans were clear. He even directed me to my new PCP. I’m so grateful to him and the office staff. My energy has been restored.

My OBGYN told me I needed a hysterectomy. I consulted with some friends then decided to reach out to this office for a second opinion. So glad I did since it looks like I do not need that after all. My consultation was televisit due to my distance and Dr. Gaugua was thorough and accommodating. I had all of my orders immediately after the call via email! Great experience so far!

Came here to treat my fibroids and have nothing but good things to say. Nearly 6months post the procedure my symptoms have improved drastically! Dr. GauGau is patient, kind and takes his time to hear your concerns and focuses on treatment. His staff is also always very patient and polite, i am truly grateful for my entire experience with them! Its rare to find a doctor who truly cares, this office makes all the difference in a positive ufe procedure.

Dr.GauGau is such a compassionate physician. My Obgyn gave me one option to get rid of my fibroids and that was a hysterectomy. She had the audacity to ask me why I wanted to keep my uterus if I didnt want any more children.I had heard Dr.GauGau ads for several years but decided I would just deal with the fibriods. Finally, I decided to have a consultation (because my stomach was getting bigger) and he told me a hysterectomy was an option, BUT it wasnt my only option. I liked how he explained everything, in a way I could understand and he took his time. My procedure was staged (second procedure 8/14/25) because one of my vessels was turned/twisted making it difficult to advance the catheter. Honestly, I'm glad it was staged because my pain level both times has been almost non existent, I feel pressure in my stomach area from time to time (I am on pain medication and ibuprofen), but Im up and walking around. Dr.GauGau and nurse Bonnie are a great team and the ladies at the front desk are also very professional.I'm glad I finally had UFE done. I had between 15-20 fibriods, the largest one was the size of a grapefruit😳. After the first part of the procedure, my cycle was lighter and my sense if urgency to use the bathroom also decreased. I cant wait to see the difference in the size of my stomach now that everything had been done.
