OpenHysterectomy near Fairfax, VA

Biography: Shalini Varshney, MD, FACOG, is board certified in obstetrics and gynecology. She has over 15 years of experience in this field. She strongly believes in providing compassionate, complete and result oriented care in obstetrics and gynecology to girls and women of all ages.

Care Philosophy: The Urogynecology Center Northern Virginia focuses on improving the quality of life for women by using minimally invasive techniques to treat urinary incontinence, sexual dysfunction and vaginal prolapse, including prolapsed bladder, rectum and uterus. Dr. Canter is the first in the area to offer nonsurgical treatments such as Viveve and Emsella. Dr. Canter is a key opinion leader for Viveve, a simple office treatment shown in clinical studies to significantly improve vaginal laxity, sexual function and urinary incontinence without surgery. She is also a key opinion leader for Emsella, a chair that a patient may sit in, fully clothed, to contract the pelvic floor and significantly improve urinary and fecal symptoms. She believes in working with each patient to determine what works best for that patient and tailor treatment options accordingly.

Care Philosophy: I believe in the importance of empowering my patient when it comes to making decisions regarding her health taking into consideration her lifestyle and unique social situation. I am passionate about teaching women as they go through different phases of their lives starting from menarche to pregnancy and menopause.
