Introduction

Add comment June 2nd, 2008

This is my first effort at being a blogger.  I will be able to help discuss women’s issues with a focus on minimally invasive surgery, pelvic floor support (prolapse) and urinary incontinence (leaking urine).  I also have formal training in health policy.  This training included a year long fellowship and it was the focus of my master’s degree.

Sharing the latest in radiology procedures

Add comment June 2nd, 2008

Most of my written contributions for Healthy Rockford.com will focus on radiology procedures for oncology, neurology and musculoskeletal disorders. These contributions will be geared to inform patients of procedures that will be more “cutting edge,” where the current research or “outcomes” are making a difference in medicine.

I’ll work to provide a resource of procedures that helps how the patient is managed, while reducing the costs associated with treating the condition and improve the expectancy or “down time” associated with the condition for the patient. If I can accomplish this with my topics, then we’ve had impact and improved the quality of life for the patient and the community we serve.
