Care Philosophy
This content was provided by Dr. Bloss "The experiences my wife and I shared in the births of our six kids have helped shape my philosophy and perspective as an obstetrician. Believing that birth is a natural event has enabled me to coach women through the delivery process; throughout a patient's pregnancy, I am happy to devote whatever time is needed for communication and information. On the gynecological side of things, I have trained to be able to provide state of the art techniques such as outpatient robotic & laparoscopic hysterectomy and hysteroscopic sterilization that allow my patients to get back on their feet and back to their busy lives. I have a special interest in the evaluation and treatment of women with chronic pelvic pain conditions and am a member of the International Pelvic Pain Society. Evidence based patient care and a positive doctor-patient collaboration are always my most important goals."
