The Endometriosis Association

ADVISORS

The Endometriosis Association Advisors are selected for their expertise on specific scientific and/or clinical aspects of endometriosis. They advise the Association on important matters related to endometriosis, review research proposals the Association might fund, provide a sounding board for Association board and staff, help promote the Association’s mission, and assist in numerous ways. (Note to those with endometriosis: simply because a physician is an Advisor does not mean he/she is the right healthcare provider for you. For help finding an endometriosis specialist who matches your needs, please contact the Endometriosis Association, and see the Association’s books and newsletters. The Endometriosis Sourcebook, for example has an extensive section on endo surgery and choosing a good endo surgeon.)
