Got Fibroids? I got you.

You are at the right place.

You deserve more than "just watch and wait."

If you've been handed a fibroid diagnosis—and handed a lot of confusion along with it—you're in the right place.

I'm Dr. Prabakar, known as The Fibroid Doc. I help women take back control from fibroids: the heavy bleeding that derails your days, the pain you've been told to just live with, and the fertility questions your doctor never fully answered.

Fibroids are one of the most common conditions women face—and one of the most undertreated. Too many women are rushed into surgery, or told nothing can be done. Neither is true.

Here, you’ll get the full picture:

  • Why fibroids happen—and why your symptoms are real, not an overreaction

  • Every treatment option—from lifestyle options to non-surgical approaches like UFE to uterus-preserving surgery—so you can make decisions that are right for your body and your life

  • What it looks like to work with a doctor who actually listens

Whether you just received your diagnosis or you've been managing fibroids for years, this is where you stop surviving them—and start making informed, empowered choices.

You don't have to figure this out alone.

The Fibroid Circle

A community of informed, supported, and empowered women.

I am on a mission to change the fear, uncertainty, and difficult choices women often face due to the lack of information and support they need.

The Fibroid Circle was created to provide a physician-led space where women can access clear, trustworthy education, ask questions, and connect with a community that understands what they are going through.

My goal is to make sure women navigating fibroids feel informed, supported, and empowered to make decisions that are right for their bodies and their lives.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

  • “I was so grateful to have been referred to Dr. Prabaker by my fertility doctor. She is an expert in the treatment of fibroids. I was so overwhelmed after first being diagnosed and didn't know where to turn. After our initial consultation, the process of scheduling and getting surgery went efficiently and smoothly. I'm at a great milestone today in recovery from the procedure. I've been back to my day to day routine since about a week and a half from surgery. Pretty great stuff!”

    Debbie L., San Francisco, CA

  • “Dr. Prabakar has been my gynecologist for the past 4 years. She is incredible in 3 ways: 1) She has wonderful "bedside manner”—she is very caring, kind and empathetic; 2) She has outstanding technical skills. She knows a lot about ob/gyn for women of all ages and she is very capable with both office procedures and surgeries; and 3) She allocates the time needed to go through what is needed in the annual exam, and she makes sure all questions are answered. I feel very fortunate to be her patient.”

    Temescal G., Oakland, CA

  • “Dr. Prabakar is fantastic! She helped me transition smoothly into menopause and keeps a close eye on my hormone replacement therapy. She is thorough and empathic and never rushes through appointments. I so appreciate the time she spends listening to my concerns and providing information in terms I fully understand. I adore her!”
