OBGYN who does laparoscopy. Treats Endometriosis.
Hello Ladies!
Wondering if anyone can recommend a doctor who treats endometriosis and does laparoscopy. I had an amazing OBGYN on the East Coast and now need to find one here in the East Bay. Any leads greatly appreciated!

I have learned SO much about endometriosis in the past year. I think with all the research I've done, I know more than most OB/GYNs. I cannot recommend highly enough a Facebook group called Nancy's Nook. They provide research-based information on treatments that are effective, ineffective, and dangerous. Once you join, you can also access their list of vetted skilled surgeons. There are a few in the Bay Area; I have Kaiser insurance, so I ended up traveling to Southern California for surgery in network, but there are options nearby with other insurance providers. Definitely check out Nancy's Nook, it is priceless and you won't regret it.
Thanks so much! Will definitely check out that fb group.
I have severe endometriosis and have done a lot of research. I had a 10cm endometeioma cyst removed laparoscopically by Dr. Marylin Milkman at Bay medical group in San Francisco. She came highly recommended and was fantastic. I highly recommend her. I’ve researched a bunch of other people as well and would be more than happy to share what I learned. Please contact me!
