The Wulf Women List

Endometriosis Excision Specialist Directory

Who is listed here? Surgeons who specialize in endometriosis and similar conditions as a primary focus of their practice, not general gynecology or obstetrics.

Being listed is not an endorsement. It doesn't mean they are an amazing surgeon, it means they meet the criteria. Do your research and ask questions before making any decisions. Check out the Resources page to better understand how I vet surgeons (and how you can do it yourself, too!).

Profiles coming soon. I'm completing full research on each surgeon and will be adding individual profiles as I go.

Have questions? Check out the FAQ at the bottom of this page!

FAQ

Who you choose for your surgeon matters more than most people realize. The wrong surgeon can mean missed disease, unnecessary surgeries, and years of pain that didn't have to happen. This is what happened to me.

Finding the right one is not a guarantee, but can drastically improve the outcome of your surgery. This directory pulls together publicly available information and patient-reported patterns in one place, so you can walk into a consultation prepared.

This directory was built using publicly available information from a wide range of sources, including surgeon websites, medical publications, advocacy resources, social media, and submissions from my social media community.

If they show on this list, it means a surface-level check confirmed endometriosis is a primary focus of their practice.. Once their name is linked to a profile, it means I have completed and published my deeper independent research on that surgeon.

A specialist is a surgeon whose practice centers on endometriosis and/or complex pelvic conditions, including fibroids, adenomyosis, pelvic pain, and similar conditions, as a primary focus rather than as one service among a general gynecology or obstetrics practice.

Inclusion criteria:

A surgeon is eligible if they publicly identify, or are publicly identified, as a specialist through any of the following:

Practice website
Public facing profiles (Doximity, hospital profiles, etc)
Social media bio or consistent social content
Inclusion on other endo specific directories: iCareBetter, Nancy’s Nook, Yellow Hub listing

Exclusion criteria:

A surgeon is excluded if public information indicates endometriosis is not a primary focus of their practice:

Their public profile presents them primarily as a general OB/GYN or obstetrician with endometriosis listed incidentally among many services
No public source positions them as a specialist, they surface only through patient referral tips or self submission with no verifiable public identity as an endo surgeon

Surgeons are included on the list based on the criteria listed above.

Personal conduct, social media behavior, and online controversy are not criteria for inclusion or removal. The directory exists to help patients find skilled surgeons, not to weigh in on personality or public opinion.

A surgeon could be removed if I find loss of medical license, or strong evidence they are not a specialist.

Absence from this directory doesn't mean a surgeon is unqualified. It means I either haven't found them yet, or couldn't find enough public information to confirm that endometriosis as a genuine focus of their practice. The directory is a living resource and will keep growing with your help.

Use the "submit feedback" button above to suggest a surgeon for review or share your experience with a surgeon.

Yes, please! Use the "submit feedback" button above.

A submission is a request for consideration, not a guarantee of inclusion. Every surgeon goes through the same research process regardless of how they came to our attention, whether that's a patient suggestion, a surgeon submitting themselves, or my own research. The information found is the information published, good or bad.

Send me a message on Instagram or TikTok (@wulfwomen), I am happy to skip ahead and help research your surgeon before your surgery date. <3

If the surgeon you're looking for doesn't meet the criteria, I will let you know. If they do, I will create the full profile and publish it here on this page.

I plan to go through the list every three months and make updates. I hope to add feedback as I get it, but I am only one person and it may take some time.

Please email me at deb@wulfwomen.com and let me know. Correcting inaccurate information is at the top of my priority list.

I really appreciate all feedback and more eyes on this. I've worked very hard to make sure this is accurate, but there is always a chance something could slip through. I review all submissions and make corrections as quickly as I can.

Check out the surgeons in your neighboring states. Many them operate out of multiple locations.

Patient feedback is pulled from publicly available sources like reviews and community forums. Some feedback is submitted directly to me via the "submit feedback" button above.

I take this feedback and fold it into the summaries in the profiles, rather than including every review word for word.

Profile depth reflects what's publicly available, not the quality of the surgeon. That said, a sparse profile is worth paying attention to. Surgeons who specialize in endometriosis tend to have a presence in the patient community. If a profile is thin on reviews and information, that's a sign to do more research and ask a ton of questions.

Yes, and I'll be upfront about it. I could not have built this without AI.

I am doing the research on each surgeon, then asking AI to check the internet for search for additional public sources.

Then, I ask AI to help with the first draft of the profile content. I read it and fix it manually to make sure it's accurate based on my research.

Lastly, I ask AI to build the code for me to make the profiles look nice on the website.

I have the utmost respect for Nancy's Nook, she helped me find my specialist. I have had her page listed on my website for a year now, but noticed very few people are clicking the link I provided. The younger generations aren't using facebook as much as we used to and I wanted something easier to access for all ages.

I also wanted to provide a service that could pull information from all over the internet and make it easy to view in one place.

iCareBetter has great information, but much of the information on there is surgeon submitted or sponsored. The Wulf Women list is a place for all information to be found, regardless of where it came from.

No. I will never accept payment from any surgeon listed here, and this directory does not generate income for me.

My name is Debrah (Deb) Stark. I'm an endo patient who learned the hard way how important specialty care is. I promised myself after my second surgery I would do everything I could to help other women navigate endometriosis care. My mission is to give women enough information to help them make the right medical decisions for themselves.

You can find me on TikTok and Instagram as @wulfwomen .
