Some issues Dr. Mia S. Di Julio, MD can help you with:

Cesarean Section (C-Section)

A Cesarean section (more often known as "C-Section") is a surgery performed during labor and delivery. A C-Section is a procedure that delivers a baby through an incision in the lower abdomen and uterus. In the United States, about a third of all births are performed by Cesarean section. Most often, a C-section is done by an obstetrician/gynecologist (OB-GYN), or in certain regions, a general surgeon or family physician.

C-section incisions can be up-and-down (vertical), from belly button to lower abdomen or side-to-side (horizontal), across the lower abdomen. Side-to-side incisions are more frequently used. After the exterior incisions are made, the doctor then cuts into the uterus and amniotic sac and delivers the infant and cuts the baby's umbilical cord. The mother receives medicine to expel the placenta and the doctor helps to safely remove it. Finally, the doctor uses sutures to seal the uterus and tissue incisions. The initial C-section skin incision is also closed with sutures or staples.

C-sections are typically performed with regional anesthesia, which inhibits pain in the lower half of the body, but allows mothers to be awake. However, some mothers may receive general anesthesia, where they are put to sleep during the surgical procedure.

C-sections may be planned or unplanned, depending on the circumstances of the birth.

Pre-existing conditions like heart disease, high blood pressure, herpes, and HIV may prompt a doctor to prescribe a C-section. Other situations for C-section include:

  • A large baby or birth to multiple children
  • Pelvic fracture or limited birth canal
  • Baby in the "breech position," where a baby is positioned feet or bottom first in the uterus
  • Baby with a developmental disorder
  • Irregular fetal heartbeat
  • Mother with a history of previous C-sections

Other mothers may require a C-section due to complications arising during delivery. These unplanned, emergency C-sections allow for a healthy birth even when complex complications are present. Problems during labor which may necessitate a C-section include:

  • Labor not progressing
  • Fetus switching position during labor
  • Distressed infant
  • Blockage of the cervical opening by the placenta
  • Prolapsed umbilical cord

Mothers should expect about a six-week recovery period following a C-section, including an initial hospital stay of two to three days. While in the hospital, mothers may spend time with their baby and begin breastfeeding. After returning home, mothers should limit strenuous activities such as lifting, reaching, and exercise, and should make sure to get plenty of rest.

Cryotherapy

Cryotherapy is the targeted use of extreme cold to destroy unhealthy or unwanted tissue. The doctor applies the cold on the skin or injects it through a needle to reach the inside of the body, where it freezes away the problem tissue. Cryotherapy is often used to remove minor skin problems such as warts or skin tags, and it is also used to treat some small tumors.

To achieve the cold temperatures needed for cryotherapy, liquid nitrogen or argon gas is passed through a tube, which becomes cold enough to freeze cells on contact. Alternatively, liquid nitrogen can be swabbed directly onto the skin or via a spray, which applies only a specific, small amount to the skin at a time.

Because the area treated is typically very small, cryotherapy is not usually painful. There may be a sensation of cold and possibly some slight discomfort. Cryotherapy is very fast and can easily be performed in a doctor's office. It also doesn't require stitches, because there is no cutting involved. These benefits make cryotherapy a good choice for many issues, including:

  • Common warts
  • Genital warts
  • Skin tags
  • Age spots
  • Some skin cancers
  • Cervical cancer
  • Prostate cancer
  • Retinoblastoma, cancer that occurs in the eye

Depending on the procedure, it usually takes three to four weeks to heal after cryotherapy. If it was done internally, patients may feel sore or have a small amount of swelling the first day afterwards. If cryotherapy was performed on the skin, patients will have a scab where their tissue was removed. Keep it clean and dry so it can heal.

Pessary

A pessary is a device that is inserted into the vagina to relieve symptoms associated with mild to moderate pelvic organ prolapse, a condition in which the womb, bladder, or rectum bulges into the vaginal canal. This device is made of either rubber or plastic and is a safe, nonsurgical way to provide support for prolapsed organs.

Pessaries come in different shapes and sizes, and finding the right one can take some trial and error. Before a pessary fitting, patients will be examined and evaluated based on prolapse-related symptoms they may be experiencing, which may include discomfort, urine leakage when sneezing or coughing, and trouble keeping tampons in.

The following tips can help guide the process of finding the right fit:

  • Once in place, patients should not be able to feel the device at all. If there is even slight pressure, patients should let their healthcare provider know, and she will find a pessary of a different size or shape.
  • The pessary should not fall out with sneezing, coughing, jumping, or squatting. While getting fitted, patients should try jumping or squatting to see if the device will fall out. If it does, a different pessary will be inserted until they find one that stays in place.
  • Patients and their healthcare providers should make sure the device is improving symptoms by having a check-up 5 to 15 days after it is inserted. If there is no improvement, patients may have to be re-fitted with a different pessary, or patients may be asked to consider surgical options.

The device should be kept clean to avoid issues like vaginal odor, discharge, or irritation. To clean a pessary, it must be taken out and washed with soap and water. Healthcare providers will instruct patients on how to remove and reinsert the device. If patients are unable to do this on their own, they will need to get it done at the doctor's office at least once every two months.

I love my doctor, Dr. Mia Di Julio, and I would follow her to any practice. I also received excellent care from Susan, who performed my vaginal ultrasound.The front desk is hit or mess- I've had experience before (not this time) with long wait times on the phone to get through to a person. I've also had appointments made that were subsequently re-scheduled at the the rest of the practice (once, I made an appointment and then later someone else called to tell me that person who helped me previously was new and made the appointment too early, another time I was called to ask if I could reschedule an appointment because the time I had booked was no longer available). Everyone has been courteous and respectful but I always come prepared to wait (either/both in the waiting room or in the exam room).

Dr. Di Julio is very personable and easy to approach with any questions. She made my husband and I feel at ease going into our first prenatal care appointment. The front office staff was very friendly and helpful and I also liked how your system had a call back option so we didn't have to wait on hold for an extended period of time to make an appointment. The only thing I'd change is that I still had to do the new patient paperwork even after doing it all online. I would have liked to not have to do that since I'd done it previously. The other thing I'd change is maybe offering more sonogram print outs since it's exciting to be able to see the baby change and grow with each visit.

Dr. Mia Di Julio is one of 8 gynecologists I have seen in the past 10 years. Of those 8 gynecologists, she is the first and only one to identify, address, and provide solutions to care for the gynecological issues I have been dealing with for the past 36 years. Additionally, she is the first and only gynecologist to listen attentively to my concerns and wishes and allow me to make choices for my body, based on the medical research available. I am very grateful to her for her professional care and service. I am finally getting the surgery I have wanted and needed to alleviate the pain and suffering I have endured unnecessarily for the past 36 years.

I love Dr. Di Julio. She's very attentive, cares about my health and listens to my concerns. I don't feel rushed when I see her. She even patiently listened to me during an appointment last year when I got very emotional about my situation. She listened, gave great advice and made me feel much better while still giving me realistic things to think about. She also remembers things about me so when I come in I feel understood and that my health really matters to her. She's kind and relatable, and has become one of my favorite doctors. Also, everyone in the office is very friendly and makes the experience very positive.

Everything about Dr. Di Julio and the office staff is great! They are personable, easy to communicate with, very helpful and friendly. My only qualm is that I often spend a lot of time in the exam room before the doctor comes in. That said, she never acts rushed or pushes our appointment along too quickly, so that means she's giving all of her patients ample time. Perhaps it's just an over scheduling problem then because I'd rather have a better idea of correct appointment time than spend 30-45 min in the exam room every time.

Dr. Di Julio has a great way of breaking things down and having empathy in the process. I have recently spoken with her about concern of family history of breast cancer and now with our recent second pregnancy. She has been such a great doctor to have during our first pregnancy and I have recommended her and the practice to some friends that have recently swapped over to her as their primary Obgyn. It has truly been a great find for me and my family in having Dr. Di Julio as my Obgyn physician.

Upon my arrival to the office, I went up to the receptionist who did not look up at me from her computer monitor and just asked which doctor I was there so see. No hello. Very impersonal. However, Dr. Di Julio is very sweet, concerned, approachable, interested, professional, listens and recommends. She did not make me feel rushed. This was my second annual checkup with her. I like her very much, and feel very comfortable with her.

I was a new patient with Dr. Di Julio. I was referred to her from an employee at St.John's. I will say that she met the expectations I had based on what others had told me before my visit.She was kind and listened to any concerns I had. Had good bedside manners. She made me feel comfortable and put me at ease. She was patient and very professional.
