Uterine fibroids are noncancerous growths that often appear in the uterus during childbearing years. While some women have no symptoms, for others, fibroids can be debilitating. If you suffer from heavy bleeding, chronic pelvic pain and constant pressure, you may believe a hysterectomy or other major surgery is your only option.
At Premier Endovascular in West Orange, NJ, we offer a modern, highly effective and minimally invasive alternative. Uterine fibroid embolization (UFE) is a nonsurgical procedure that treats fibroids at their source, allowing you to find lasting relief while preserving your uterus and returning to your life more quickly.

UFE targets the blood supply that fibroids need to survive:

For decades, women were told a hysterectomy was the only definitive treatment for fibroids. UFE provides a powerful, uterus-sparing alternative.
A hysterectomy is the surgical removal of the uterus. It generally requires a hospital stay and a long 6-8 week recovery. It is a major, irreversible operation.
UFE is a nonsurgical and minimally invasive procedure that preserves the uterus and resolves the issue at its source. It is performed in our comfortable outpatient center, has a much faster recovery, about one week, and allows for the possibility of future pregnancy.
Choosing UFE means selecting a modern approach that solves the problem without the need for major surgery.
“Dr Iraci was super professional and his staff was amazing. They guided through my process step by step and answered all my question along the way!”
“If I could give 10 stars I would! I came in for back pain. The doctor saw me right away, took his time assessing me and explaining different conservative options and my treatment plan. Highly recommend”
Providing patients with insight into their bodies, disease process and their treatment plans is the type of education they need in order to feel empowered to take control of their lives. This is my approach to medicine. So my philosophy regarding patient care is that everyone’s different. Everybody has their own story. Everybody has their own issues that they’re coming to you for, and the treatment plans and the diagnostic plans should be individualized.
You don’t have to live with the pain and heavy bleeding of uterine fibroids. Take the first step toward lasting relief. Contact Premier Endovascular to schedule your consultation and discover if UFE is the right choice for you.
