DALLAS, TEXAS (July 2024): Danny Chan, MD, MBA joins Fibroid Institute Texas as an additional fibroid treatment physician alongside founder and medical director Suzanne Slonim, MD. An additional Dallas fibroid doctor enables the expanding specialized medical practice to serve more women seeking uterine fibroid treatment. Dr. Chan is committed to making a difference in fibroid treatment for women, improving their quality of life, and providing a non-surgical option for fibroid symptom relief.
About Danny Chan, MD, MBA
As a diagnostic and vascular interventional radiologist, Dr. Danny Chan arrives at the Fibroid Institute with a goal of educating women about non-surgical, state-of-the-art treatment options for uterine fibroids. He joins a highly specialized practice that has multiple locations throughout Texas and improves the lives of women by applying the latest advanced technology. Dr. Chan states, "For years, fibroids have plagued far too many women. They deserve to live their lives without fibroid symptoms.”
Dr. Chan earned his medical degree from Saint Louis University School of Medicine and received his MBA from the University of Texas at Dallas. He went on to complete a general surgery internship at New York Medical College at Westchester Medical Center in Valhalla, New York. Dr. Chan finished his training in New York City with a radiology residency at Lenox Hill Hospital in Manhattan’s Upper East Side. He is fellowship-trained in vascular and interventional radiology from the world-renowned Miami Cardiac and Vascular Institute.
Dr. Chan stays current with the latest medical advances in his field. He is board-certified by the American Board of Radiology in diagnostic radiology and vascular and interventional Radiology. Dr. Chan holds a certification as a registered physician vascular interpreter (RPVI).
He was an assistant professor of interventional radiology at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center and was the medical director of Non-Invasive Vascular Laboratory at St. Paul University Hospital in Dallas, Texas for many years. Dr. Chan has published numerous peer-reviewed publications and book chapters and presents at medical association meetings nationwide.
In 2012, Dr. Chan co-founded Precision Vascular, the first independent vascular and interventional radiology practice in North Texas, now known as StrideCare.
"Dr. Chan will uphold a high level of care and concern for patients with continuity," states Dr. Suzanne Slonim. Our entire team is dedicated to consistently going above and beyond expectations. Women can anticipate concierge care, from initial consultation through treatment, recovery, and follow-up appointments.”
Dr. Chan continues, "This practice can devote all attention to improving the patient experience and technique because fibroid treatment is 100% of the focus. Being able to care for the patient throughout the entire process allows continuity of care and provides immense job satisfaction.” As a Dallas fibroid doctor, Dr. Chan is currently accepting new patients at the medical practice’s North Texas fibroid clinics and looks forward to helping women live fibroid free.
About Uterine Fibroids and UFE
Uterine fibroids are abnormal growths in the uterus that affect three out of four women, most often between the ages of 30 and 50. Although usually benign, fibroids may lead to life altering symptoms, such as severe pelvic pain and heavy periods. Fibroids can also cause abdominal bloating, urinary frequency, back pain, and reproductive dysfunction including miscarriage, early labor, and infertility. They are often discovered during routine health testing.
Uterine fibroid embolization (UFE) is a non-surgical treatment that uses image-guided interventional radiology techniques through the wrist to navigate a small catheter into the arteries that supply the uterus. At that point small, microscopic particles are introduced that block blood flow to the fibroids, causing them to shrink and die while preserving the uterus. It is a safe, fast, and minimally invasive procedure, often providing an alternative to hysterectomy (removal of the uterus) or myomectomy (surgical removal of the fibroids). Patients typically go home after one hour. Covered by most insurance plans, UFE requires a much shorter recovery time than traditional surgery. The success rate for the procedure is over 90%.
In the past, gynecologists were hesitant to suggest UFE because of post-procedure pain. However, since the institute’s launch in 2016, a growing number of medical professionals including gynecologists, internists, hematologists, general practitioners, wellness physicians, chiropractors, and physical therapists—have chosen to send patients to the Fibroid Institute. Dr. Slonim developed a world class concierge practice with a proprietary unique approach in fibroid treatment, so patients experience very little discomfort as fibroids shrink.
