Erectile Dysfunction
Infectious Diseases
Flu Shots
If you have an appointment in one of the following clinics, ask your doctor to get your yearly flu shot during your visit today. Flu shots are covered by most insurance.
Electrocardiogram
Your doctor may suspect that you have PH based on noninvasive tests, such as an electrocardiogram or echocardiogram. Because an accurate diagnosis is critical to your care, you may need additional tests to rule out other possible heart problems. Our team recommends several tests, including aÂ cardiac catheterization. This enables doctors to diagnose PH and determine the best treatment plan, tailored specifically for each patient.

Internal Medicine
Each year we think we’ve harnessed all of the artistic talent of our colleagues...only to discover the following year that the richness runs even deeper. Each of us joined the editorial team for a variety reasons. We each have different interests in painting, photography, and writing. What unites us is our love for grammar and the red pen as well as our desire to showcase the humanism in medicine. We earnestly believe that healthcare providers who do art relate better to their patients and colleagues and are better clinicians for it. Cuentos is a forum for artistic expression in the Division of General Internal Medicine, and we are so grateful for it.

The study hypothesis is that BCG naïve non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) patients treated with intravesical Gemcitabine + Docetaxel (GEMDOCE) will result in a non-inferior event-free survival (EFS) compared to standard treatment with intravesical BCG. The purpose of this study is to...

Computed Tomography
Chemotherapy
Because each patient is different, counseling and treatment is highly-individualized. Options range from shielding ovaries from radiation, to taking proactive measures before chemotherapy could impact fertility. One of the most recent and significant developments for patients involves freezing a womanâ€™s eggs. As opposed to frozen embryos, which also require sperm, eggs can be frozen by any woman to be used at any time.
Radiation Therapy
This phase III trial studies whether adding apalutamide to the usual treatment improves outcome in patients with lymph node positive prostate cancer after surgery. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-ray to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Androgens, or male sex hormones, can cause the...

General Surgery
Scoliosis Surgery
Patients with spinal pain often feel they face two distinct paths: one that requires surgery, and one that does not. The uncertainty of which path to choose can cause as much inertia as the pain itself causes immobility. People are worried they won’t get better, or they are worried about where surgery could lead. Our surgeons believe in customized care to find the best options if more conservative treatment fails. These can range from minimally invasive procedures to complex revisions, as well as deformity and scoliosis surgery.
Arthroscopy
Our innovation and research has helped the department earn a reputation as one of the nation’s premiere institutions for shoulder surgery. Our surgeons treat injuries to tendons and ligaments, pain caused by arthritis, fractures and pain from previous surgeries which may have been unsuccessful. They have been pioneers in the use of minimally invasive, arthroscopic surgery which makes procedures less painful, allows for smaller incisions, and causes less trauma to the muscles around the shoulder. Arthroscopy has also allowed for more outpatient procedures, which means you can recover at home and more quickly resume everyday activities.
Wound Care
Minimally Invasive Surgery
A range of treatments are available from non-operative measures through joint preserving procedures to partial and total joint replacement. When indicated, minimally invasive surgery is emphasized.
Ankle Surgery
The average person takes almost 10,000 steps a day. All that movement puts pressure on your feet and ankles. Together, the bones in your feet and ankle comprise about one-fourth of the bones in your entire body. The Foot and Ankle Service at The GW Medical Faculty Associates offers expertise in the diagnosis and treatment of all types of problems of the foot and ankle, with an emphasis on adult reconstruction and revision surgery, traumatic and post-traumatic problems; congenital and developmental disease and deformities.
Joint Replacement
Pain from arthritis got you down? In the Hip and Knee Center, our joint reconstruction specialists offer a range of treatments from non-operative measures to partial and total joint replacement. When possible, nonsurgical methods are utilized first, with a philosophy that the longer the life of a person’s joint can be prolonged before opting for joint replacement, the better for the patient. In cases where surgery is needed, our surgeons utilize the least-invasive procedures and most cutting edge replacement techniques to speed your recovery.
Arthritis Surgery
Orthopedic Surgery
Patients often come to the Spine Section of the Department of Orthopedic Surgery at The GW Medical Faculty Associates after receiving several medical opinions. They can be frustrated looking for an answer to relieve their pain, and fear the possibility of surgery. That’s why our physicians believe comprehensive care matters, and trust matters.

Vascular Surgery
Arthroscopy
Hysterectomy
Whether you've had multiple prior surgeries, are overweight, or have very large fibroids, there is an answer. A hysterectomy may not be your only option. You may qualify for a less invasive procedure to treat your fibroids.
Knee Replacement
Whether you suffer from persistent knee pain and stiffness, or you’ve suffered a knee injury, knee replacement surgery – one of the most successful surgeries – may be in your future.

Plastic Surgeons

Breast Reduction
Breast Reconstruction
Breast cancer surgery focuses on removal of a tumor to cure the disease. But doctors can also help patients get something backâ€”whether peace of mind, physical strength, or, in many cases, the sense of wholeness that comes with reconstruction of a new breast. Our Comprehensive Breast Cancer Center teams up with plastic surgeons at The GW Medical Faculty Associates who specialize in breast reconstruction.

Skin Cancer
Thereâ€™s a reason breast cancer patients often hear, â€œYou are not alone.â€ Breast cancer is the most common cancer, aside from non-melanoma skin cancer, among women in this country. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention finds nearly 203,000 women were diagnosed with the disease in 2007, which is the most recent year numbers are available. For some patients, diagnosis carries an even larger burdenâ€”worries that life-saving treatment now might prevent the ability to have a child in the future. Our team of physicians at the Fertility & IVF Center understands those concerns and uses the latest technology to give patients more choices and greater hope than ever before.

Eczema
Coconut oil has long been considered a beauty "cure-all," but if we're being straight with you, that's a bit of a stretch. Sure — in a perfect world, the sweet-smelling oil would make skin conditions like acne and eczema magically disappear. Hell, it'd make hair grow thicker and longer, and...
