Office Staff Our staff are the most friendly, caring and compassionate about their work and the care of our patients.
Services Urogynecologists are trained to treat women suffering from all types of pelvic disorders, such as incontinence, uterine disorders or sexual dysfunction, among others. Dr. Kantartzis is trained in both surgical and non-surgical treatments for women suffering from these conditions, and can help restore the quality of life in patients. Conditions treated by a urogynecologist will often be extremely personal, or potentially embarrassing, for patients.

Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy
PFD is often undertreated because women delay seeking treatment for reasons such as embarrassment, not knowing that effective treatment exists, not knowing where to turn for help, or believe it is a natural part of aging. At The Woman’s Center for Advanced Pelvic Surgery, we are committed to advancing treatment options with a team centered approach.

Treatment options for pelvic floor dysfunction include:
Biofeedback Therapy Behavioral Therapy
Pharmacotherapy Electrical Stimulation
Pessary Management Dietary Management

Women with pelvic floor dysfunction (PFD) benefit from pelvic floor therapy and rehabilitation. Pelvic floor therapy and rehabilitation is a non-surgical approach to improving the function and strength of the pelvic floor muscles. Advancements in technology allow for evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment of PFD. Types of PFD commonly treated with non-surgical intervention include:

Pelvic floor therapy and rehabilitation for PFD is well supported by research and is validated by positive patient outcomes.

Dr. Kantarsis was the first doctor I’ve felt truly comfortable taking to about health issues. Her professionalism, expertise, ability to explain and make me feel like a valued patient was beyond what I’ve ever experienced. Her office was so inviting and the equipment was state of the art. Her staff were all so friendly and made the new patient process painless. I felt so confident of my decision to have surgery by Dr Kantarsis when I walked out of her office. I can’t recommend her enough.

I heard about Dr Kantarsis from a co-worker who had a cystocele and rectocele repair done by Dr. K and she is so glad she did! I am having the same issues and ,because of my co-workers recommendation, I went for my consultation and exam and found the office staff to be friendly and kind, which eased my fears, and Dr Kantarsis was equally kind and made it easy to talk about my delicate matters without embarrassment. The staff and office were xtremely efficient and I was in and out within 45 min or less.
