This month at PRM, we’re introducing you to the Providers Who Treat What Others Dismiss by Breaking the Cycle of Suffering, Gaslighting, and Dismissal for Pelvic Pain and Endometriosis Patients

Jessica Ray, FNP-C is PRM’s pelvic pain specialist in Englewood and Florham Park, New Jersey. Here’s a recent story of how Jessica Ray broke a patient’s pain cycle by simply being the first provider to listen, evaluate, and correctly diagnose her patient. 

A 45-year-old woman sought Jessica’s help for worsening symptoms, including painful, heavy menstrual cycles and discomfort during intercourse. Despite seeking care from her gynecologist and trying birth control, her symptoms persisted. Turning to PRM for a second opinion, the patient received a thorough evaluation that strongly pointed to endometriosis.

Here is the cycle the patient was going through:

After years of painful, heavy periods and discomfort during sex, she still didn’t have answers.

  • She was tired of being told it was normal.
  • She tried birth control. She saw a gynecologist. Nothing changed.
  • And then it continued – over and over again…until she came to PRM in New Jersey.

The Care Approach That Broke the Cycle

At her first consultation with Jessica, she finally experienced what it was like to be listened to, heard, and achieve a proper diagnosis for her condition: endometriosis.

Jessica initiated treatment using the PRM Protocol™ while coordinating a surgical consultation. Surgery confirmed the diagnosis of endometriosis and adenomyosis. Post-surgery, the patient continued care with PRM through post-hab.

Here’s what Jessica did:

  1. Thorough assessment of a patient’s history, symptoms, and functional limitations.
  2. Collaboration with specialists such as pelvic floor therapists and excision surgeons.
  3. Continuous reassessment and adjustment of treatment plans to ensure long-term relief.

This holistic approach prioritizes restoring function and improving daily life, addressing not only physical symptoms but also the emotional and psychological toll of chronic pelvic pain.

Four months later, this patient reported a nearly complete resolution of her symptoms, an outcome that significantly improved her quality of life.
