Va Mental Health

Female Veterans in the Louisville, KY area; Let me tell you about this AWESOME male gynecologist at the Robley Rex VA!!!! 🙌🙌🙌 I cannot praise the Louisville VA surgery team enough! Here I am about 10 hours postop from getting my tubes removed. Doctor James Graham is a phenomenal gynecologist!!! And I dont say that lightly! I was apprehensive at first, because I have MST and PTSD, so I stayed away from male gynecologists. Unfortunately, the female gynecologist that I went to retired, so I was asked to give this gentleman a chance. LET ME TELL YOU 🙌 dr. Graham makes you feel like you are the only person in the room. He asks such thorough questions and looks out for the best in women’s health. When I told him that I wanted the sterilization procedure (tubes removed, NOT tied/clamped) he did not give me any pushback, just a lot of information and then even went the extra mile! Since I was due for my Pap soon, and a marina replacement, we did a three for one special in the operating room. 😆 most doctors would just remove the tubes and that’s it. But he asked me how my cycle and everything usually was, and decided to keep the marina in to continue to manage my cycle/blood flow. So not only are my tubes removed, but now I still get to keep my marina, so we are double locked for no more kids in the future! Also, my mom was my driver and she had this to say about him (when updating my family); ”Surgeon just came out and said all went well. Said Nat also had some adhesions from her C-section that he went ahead and removed those too while he was in there. My guess is that any pelvic pain esp during periods that Nat was having were made worse by those adhesions. This doc has an outstanding bedside manner. Very personable and down to earth.”
