What is the wait time for an endometriosis surgery consult?

Wait times for endometriosis surgery consultations can vary based on case complexity, how quickly records are available, and current scheduling demand. In our process, a consult isn’t scheduled first and records requested later—we begin with a preliminary review of your symptoms and the medical records you can provide so we can tell you directly whether a consultation is likely to be meaningful.


The fastest way to move forward is to submit what you have (prior operative reports, pathology, imaging reports/images if available, and a brief treatment history). After that initial review, we’ll let you know what—if anything—is still needed and, if we believe we may be able to help, we’ll proceed with scheduling a telehealth informational consult and outline what next steps could look like, including whether in-person evaluation or surgery in California may be appropriate.
