We believe that many searching
the net for information realize they or a loved one
has a health condition that needs to be dealt with.
Unfortunately, doctors, spouse, and friends many times
don't understand your physical issues, and worse, may
even say that the disease exists only in your head.
Several factors set VitalCare
Institute apart from the typical medical practice. First,
we listen and believe what you have to say. Some of
you have been through multiple physicians trying to
get your medical problem corrected. At times the medical
care you received may have been a humiliating experience.
At VitalCare Institute, your opinion is respected and
you will be involved in your medical care.
We also have the medical expertise
and understanding required to treat your situation.
People ask, "Why do women with these conditions
have such a difficult time getting effective treatment?"
We believe that outstanding surgical expertise, comprehensive
evaluation and treatment of the entire person (not one
organ system) and adjunct or supportive therapies are
required for successful treatment.
We evaluate the entire patient
when indicated, including the bowel, bladder, environmental
and immune factors. Dr. Cook can surgically remove disease,
but absence of disease does not always equate with good
health. Both traditional medicine and alternative treatments
may contribute to restoring the patient to good health.
We also provide you with the
time needed to address your condition. We emphasize
quality rather than quantity. We never want a patient
to feel rushed or as though they did not get their concerns
addressed. If you decide to become a VitalCare Institute
patient, we will work together with you as a team to
solve your problems.
At VitalCare Institute, we strive
very hard to provide you with the most cost-effective
medical care. We do accept most insurance plans, but
we do not "subscribe" to any insurance plans.
What this means is that we accept insurance payment
but your insurance may not cover the entire amount of
your bill. As part of our service to you, we will file
your insurance claims with your insurance company.
Endometriosis is a horrible
disease which can rob women of their physical health
and mental well being. Unfortunately, not all physicians
understand how to effectively treat endometriosis, pelvic
pain and the associated medical conditions.
Working together, you (the patient),
Dr. Cook and the team of health care professionals at
VitalCare Institute of Health can provide effective
treatment to help you regain your health.
Pelvic pain and conditions such
as endometriosis can be treated, and most patients can
indeed have a normal life once again. Regardless of
who you see for treatment of your endometriosis, the
reality of this disease is that when it is really completely
removed from your body, the disease is gone and you
should feel better. If the pain does not resolve with
complete removal of the endometriosis then other associated
medical conditions are present. With continued cooperation
between the patient and the health care team these problems
can usually be identified and treated.
VitalCare is focused on helping
women with a variety of gynecologic problems but has
a special focus on helping women with pelvic pain and
endometriosis. We listen to our patients, treat them
with the dignity and respect that they deserve, and
correct their medical problem in the process.
