Fibroid Institute Opens New Fibroid Clinic in the Heights area of Houston, TX
Oct 25, 2026
Fibroid Institute opens its newest fibroid clinic to serve the Greater Heights and Memorial Heights areas of Houston, Texas. With additional locations, this specialized concierge medical practice provides local access to care for thousands of women seeking non-surgical relief from fibroids.
Addison, United States, October 25, 2026 /PressCable/ -- HOUSTON, TEXAS, USA (October 2026): The Fibroid Institute, a revolutionary medical practice providing non-surgical fibroid treatment to women with symptomatic uterine fibroids, announces the recent expansion of its acclaimed medical practice with a new fibroid clinic in Central Houston near the Greater Heights and Memorial Heights areas.
This additional location allows the Fibroid Institute to expand access to life-changing, minimally invasive fibroid treatment in South Texas, supporting more women through their unique journeys toward better health.
Central Houston’s New Fibroid Clinic
Located at 5151 Katy Freeway, Suite 170, Houston, TX 77007, the new fibroid clinic is centrally located off Interstate 10 in the Greater Heights area.
Fibroid Institute’s founder Dr. Suzanne Slonim said, “Our goal has always been to positively impact women’s lives and raise awareness about alternative fibroid treatments. Continuing our expansion throughout Houston simply makes sense in that regard. Too many women still believe the only answer to their uncomfortable symptoms is to have a hysterectomy. But this couldn’t be further from the truth. Fibroid pain should not be normalized, and women throughout Texas need to know they have options.”
Dr. John Fischer, Houston medical director for the Fibroid Institute, agreed. “We couldn’t be happier about this opportunity to add another convenient location for women in South Texas. I also grew up in the area and have deep roots and close personal ties to Houston, so continuing to add more locations here is very special to me.”
“Many women do not know their symptoms are related to fibroids. Some don’t seek medical help until their condition has become life-altering,” Dr. Fischer added. “Additionally, some women who do seek medical care are not made aware of all available treatment options. Some may wish to avoid major surgery for a variety of reasons but are not given other options. By having more locations, we can spread our message more easily and serve our patients better. All our locations, including the new fibroid clinic in Central Houston, provide local access to a life-changing treatment so many women don’t realize exists.”
The Fibroid Institute continues to provide the personalized, concierge patient care that the five-star patient-reviewed medical practice is known for. Patients will not need to travel as far for non-surgical fibroid treatment. Many more women will benefit from uterine fibroid embolization (UFE), performed by experienced, highly skilled specialists at the Fibroid Institute.
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 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) utilizes state-of-the-art techniques to shrink fibroids and alleviate fibroid symptoms. The Fibroid Institute's experienced fibroid specialists make a tiny nick on the patient’s left wrist. A very small catheter is inserted and advanced to the uterine arteries using image-guided interventional radiology. The physician uses X-ray guidance to locate the vessels that supply blood to the fibroids. The physician injects small particles into the vessels, blocking blood flow to the fibroids and causing them to shrink. There’s no hospital stay or incision. UFE can treat all fibroids at one time, so there is no need for multiple treatment sessions. Furthermore, recovery generally takes only 7 days for most women.
Recovery time is much shorter than fibroid surgery because it is less invasive and not surgical. Most insurance plans cover the procedure, and the success rate is over 90%.
About Dr. John Fischer, Houston Medical Director
In the 25+ years of treating fibroid patients, Dr. John Fischer has empowered and helped thousands of women live their lives to the fullest, free from fibroid symptoms. With Dr. Fischer’s care, women no longer must face the dilemma of enduring fibroid pain or undergoing surgery for fibroids.
Very few practices across the nation are dedicated 100% to fibroid treatment. The concierge model at the Fibroid Institute means patients receive personalized, comprehensive care from the initial consultation through post-procedure follow-ups. Patients also have access to their fibroid doctor’s mobile phone number to call or text 24/7 with questions and concerns.
In addition to prioritizing patient needs, the Fibroid Institute helps reduce the healthcare costs of fibroid treatment. National demand for non-surgical fibroid procedures is growing. UFE is a minimally invasive outpatient procedure that does not require a hospital stay, so it costs less than traditional fibroid surgeries such as hysterectomy. Thousands of women have turned to the experience and knowledge of the Fibroid Institute team for non-surgical uterine fibroid treatment.
