Good Morning!
Winter is on it's way to Central Oregon, as the temp this morning was 16 degrees. Now all we need is some snow in the mountains to start the ski season.
This past week has been an exciting one in our office. We've been refining some of our educational information and will soon be modifying our website so it can better inform potential patients regarding incontinence and pelvic prolapse. There is so much information on this topic, it's hard to know what to include and what would just be contributions to your "cesspool of useless information", so to speak. The trick is how to organize it, and to explain things in ways everyone can understand. Don't worry, it's coming and will soon be better than it is now.
I'm starting to build up my surgical numbers, and last week we repaired a large cystocele (bladder fallen down), and did a laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy. This is a procedure where the top of the vagina is resupported via a piece of mesh sutured to the sacrum (the base of the spine). This procedure has been done for years through a big incision, but over the past few years a few centers have started to perform them through the laparoscope, which allows for a much faster recovery. To my knowledge, we are the only center in Oregon doing these laparoscopic procedures.
I want to let you all know that we will be at the Central Oregon Womens Expo at the fairgrounds in Redmond Nov 11 and 12th. For those of you who live in this area, I'd love to meet you and discuss any issues you may want to talk about regarding womens health, or anything else on your mind. It will be exciting to meet a lot of people (hopefully) and try to address their health concerns.
Take care, and have a great week.

- Dr. Mosbrucker believes that caring for patients begins with caring about the person first, easing their anxiety and developing trust before going into the operating room. She believes in treating every woman as if she were her own sister or mother. A Northwest native born in Tacoma, Wash., Dr. Mosbrucker previously practiced in Hawaii before accepting the apprentice position in Bend. She received her medical degree from Northwestern University Medical School in Chicago and completed her residency in obstetrics/gynecology at the National Naval Medical Center in Bethesda, Md. She then served in the United States Navy in Guam and Pensacola, Fla., before starting private practice in Kailua, Hawaii, eight years ago. “I am very excited to be joining Dr. Redwine’s practice. Because he is one of the world’s leading experts in endometriosis, it’s a great learning opportunity for me,” said Dr. Mosbrucker. “I will also be bringing my specialties in laparoscopic surgery and pelvic reconstruction, so I can add some unique value as well.” “I’m also excited to live in Bend,” she continued. An avid outdoors person, Dr. Mosbrucker loves to ski, fish, hike, golf, kayak and cook.
