How Mindy Approaches Pelvic Pain Care
“Every evaluation begins with a thorough review of the patient’s full history, symptoms, and concerns, without rushing to a conclusion or dismissing what the patient already knows about their own body.”
From there, Mindy builds individualized, evidence-based treatment plans designed to address both the underlying cause of pain and its real-world impact on daily life. That philosophy carries through every part of care, from the first consultation to long-term management.
Patients leave appointments understanding their condition, their options, and their next steps. That clarity matters, especially for patients who have spent years feeling confused or ignored by the healthcare system.
Specialized Focus: Endometriosis and Chronic Pelvic Pain
Mindy has a strong clinical focus on endometriosis and chronic pelvic pain, two conditions that are consistently underdiagnosed and misunderstood. Endometriosis is not simply a gynecologic issue, it is a systemic disease that can affect the bowel, bladder, nervous system, and overall quality of life. Most patients wait years before receiving an accurate diagnosis, often after being told their pain is normal.
Mindy’s role is to shorten that timeline. She focuses on early symptom recognition, proactive treatment planning, and ongoing support through every stage of care. For patients who have already had surgery and are still experiencing pain, she works to identify what is driving remaining symptoms and develops a path forward through the PRM Protocol™.
Empowering Patients Through Education and Advocacy
A key part of Mindy’s approach is patient education.
She believes that when patients understand their symptoms and treatment options, they are better equipped to make informed decisions about their care. Through shared decision-making, she works alongside patients to develop plans that align with their goals and lifestyle.
Her passion lies in helping patients who have:
- Been told their pain is “normal”
- Experienced misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis
- Struggled to find effective treatment
By validating their experiences and providing clear next steps, she helps patients move forward with confidence.

What the PRM Protocol™ Means for Patients
PRM treats endometriosis and chronic pelvic pain as whole-body, lifelong conditions that require more than a one-time intervention. The PRM Protocol™ brings together inflammation reduction, pelvic floor dysfunction treatment, nerve-focused therapies, surgical coordination when appropriate, and long-term follow-up in one cohesive plan.
Mindy works within this model to ensure patients at the Englewood location receive comprehensive, connected care rather than fragmented appointments that leave gaps.

Frequently Asked Questions
A pelvic pain specialist diagnoses and treats conditions like endometriosis, pelvic floor dysfunction, and chronic pelvic pain using a comprehensive, individualized approach. At PRM, that includes coordinating surgical and non-surgical care under one model.
If you have chronic pelvic pain, painful periods, pain with intercourse, or symptoms that interfere with daily life — especially if previous treatments have not worked — it is time to seek specialized care.
Symptoms can include severe menstrual cramps, chronic pelvic pain, pain with intercourse, bowel or bladder pain, fatigue, and infertility. Many patients live with several of these for years before receiving a diagnosis.
Yes. Many patients improve significantly through non-surgical, multidisciplinary care that targets inflammation, muscle dysfunction, and nerve involvement. At PRM, surgery is only recommended when clinically appropriate and is always paired with long-term management through the PRM Protocol™.
Symptoms are frequently dismissed as normal period pain, and many providers lack specialized training in endometriosis. The average time to diagnosis is years. PRM exists to close that gap.
