The embolization procedure was quick, minimum discomfort & amazingly effective, in that the change to my heavy periods was instant, in fact, life-changing and I have never looked back. Now 15 years down the line, still the fibroids remain ‘shrunk’ and not causing me any issues.

Privileged to be treated by Dr. Paul Crowe. Diagnosed with fibroids 6 yrs ago, tried myomecmtomy, but they returned. Uterine Artery Embolisation by Dr. Crowe reduced & removed my fibroids, boosting energy & iron levels. Lifesaver! Grateful for his expertise & care.
