Greetings!
It's back to school time and back to regular routines. That return to a schedule is usually a welcome change, but it also signals the end of summer vacations and lazy days. Once the kids are in school, it's time to think about taking care of you! Maybe it's time for that annual exam or mammogram. Maybe it's a colonoscopy.....now is the time. Afraid to sneeze or cough....unable to trust your 'plumbing'? Now is a good time to address this problem with your doctor. Men AND women alike can suffer from urinary incontinence. Young women are affected too...it's not just a 'menopause thing'. Don't be shy! Be dry! Read our article this month on urinary incontinence by clicking here, then have that talk with one of our physicians. You might be surprised with your options and with today's minimally invasive procedures, the 'down' time is short. Enjoy these last long, lazy days of summer!
Sincerely,
The Women's Health Group 303-280-2229/303-665-6016

| Welcome, Dr. Andrea Burgess! |
 Dr. Andrea Burgess joined our Lafayette office this week. Returning 'home' to the Denver area, Dr. Burgess takes advantage of the great climate by bking, running, and playing soccer.
With a special interest in chronic pelvic pain, minimally invasive surgical techniques, and general OB/GYN, Dr. Burgess is a welcome addition to our Lafayette office. Dr. Burgess has a desire to volunteer with the underserved communities in the Denver area, and she would like to work with a medical mission group to improve healthcare to women outside the United States.

 Several of our physicians have advanced training with the daVinci Surgical System. This impressive piece of equipment enables the surgeon to use a less-invasive technique for laparoscopic hysterectomies and other procedures.
Some of the benefits to utilizing such new technology vs traditional surgical techniques include:
- Less blood loss
- Shorter hospital stay
- Small incisions for minimal scarring
- Quicker recovery and return to activity
To read what other patients are saying about their daVinci experience, please see
For an appointment with one of our daVinci-trained physicians,
please call our Thornton office at: 303-280-2229

Another recall? It's hard to keep up with them, isn't it? We found a site that addresses most recalls including those from the FDA and USDA. Not sure about your baby's car seat? What about that pain reliever? How about that used car you might be thinking of. Click on Recalls.gov and get the latest updates.
The Women's Health Group does not monitor their site for accuracy, but it appears to be comprehensive and includes current information. |
| Nausea and vomiting and misery, Oh My! |
 Morning sickness? Morning sickness all day? Now available by prescription from our physicians, a new way to combat your nausea and vomiting without taking a pill!
PrimaBella is a specially designed medical device that is worn on the underside of your wrist like a watch. There is a gentle stimulation (you control the intensity) that can calm your upset stomach. Your health insurance may pay for this device, although it is fairly new, and we cannot guarantee payment.
