Some issues Dr. Nancy Zhining Tang, FACOG, MD can help you with:

Hysteroscopy

A hysteroscopy is a diagnostic procedure performed to examine the inside of the uterus. A thin tube with a camera and light at the end, called a hysteroscope, is inserted through the vagina. It allows the physician to view the cervix and uterine walls. Sometimes, gas or liquid is used to expand the uterus and allow a better view. If necessary, tiny instruments can also be passed through the tube and used for certain procedures, such as taking a biopsy or removing a polyp.

Hysteroscopy is often done to figure out the cause of abnormal menstrual bleeding. However, it can also be used to:

  • Identify the cause of recurrent miscarriage
  • Remove polyps or fibroids, non-cancerous growths in the uterus
  • Remove adhesions, scar tissue within the uterus
  • Identify uterine septums, a wall of tissue dividing the uterus
  • Perform ablation, the removal of excess uterine lining

If surgery is necessary, hysteroscopy is often used along with laparoscopy, a kind of surgery performed through small incisions in the abdomen. Tiny tools are passed through the incisions, and the hysteroscope guides the doctors while surgery is performed.

Laparoscopic Surgery

Laparoscopic surgery is a kind of minimally invasive surgery using a thin, narrow tube called a laparoscope. Usually performed on the abdomen or the pelvic region, the surgeon makes a few very small incisions instead of one large one.

During the procedure, the surgeon inserts the laparoscope, which contains a light and camera that allows the surgeon to see what is happening inside the body. Then tiny tools are placed through the small openings and used to perform the surgery.

The most common laparoscopic surgery is gallbladder removal, but laparoscopic surgery may also be used for the removal of a kidney or appendix, to treat certain cysts and tumors, for bariatric surgery, for some GERD treatments, or for hernia repairs, among others.

Because laparoscopic surgery only uses a few tiny incisions, the scars are minimal and recovery is easier than with open surgery.

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)

Polycystic ovarian syndrome is a common endocrine disorder that causes symptoms such as acne, facial hair, and weight gain. It is often diagnosed when patients experience problems getting pregnant, because PCOS can interfere with ovulation. There is no cure for PCOS, but there are effective treatments that can lessen the severity of the symptoms.

Despite the name, not everyone with polycystic ovarian syndrome develops cysts on their ovaries. It is also possible to have ovarian cysts without having PCOS. The symptoms of polycystic ovarian syndrome are actually related to insulin resistance, a condition where the insulin made by the body is not effectively recognized by the cells. This causes the pancreas to release higher levels of insulin in order to keep blood sugar levels stable, and the excess insulin interferes with hormone production in the pituitary and ovaries, causing the PCOS symptoms.

The symptoms of PCOS include:

  • Weight gain
  • Acne
  • Facial or body hair
  • Thinning head hair
  • Missing or irregular periods
  • Infertility

PCOS is a syndrome, which means that if patients have PCOS, they might not have each and every symptom. Even a few of them might be enough to have physicians check for polycystic ovarian syndrome. A doctor might perform an exam and order blood tests to measure hormone levels.

Treatment for PCOS may include:

  • Insulin sensitizers, which help the body use insulin more effectively, lowering hormone levels. The most commonly used insulin sensitizer is metformin.
  • Weight loss. Being overweight does not cause PCOS, and PCOS can make losing weight difficult. Still, weight loss can improve symptoms for many women.
  • Birth control pills to regulate menstruation and sometimes reduce symptoms such as acne.
  • Fertility medications, especially medications to stimulate ovulation such as clomiphene.
  • Anti-androgen medications, which work to treat symptoms such as acne and facial hair.
  • Low-carb diets, which work similarly to insulin sensitizers to lower hormone levels and help reduce weight.
  • Ovarian drilling or resectioning, surgical procedures sometimes performed if infertility is a persistent problem. These procedures open up the wall of the ovary to temporarily make ovulation more likely.

Polycystic ovarian syndrome is one of the most common endocrine disorders affecting women. Left untreated, it can increase the risk of diabetes, heart disease, and certain cancers. Fortunately there are many good treatment options available.

This is a review regarding the pathetic service provided by both Sutter Health and their OBGYN Nancy Tang. I am in my late 30s and had been undergoing hormonal changes which resulted in extreme fatigue and acne breakouts to name a few. In my desperate situation, I called PAMF who made an appointment with their only available OBGYN (now clearly evident why available) Nancy Tang. I showed up for my appt. and was made to wait for nearly 50 mins even though I was on time for the appointment. In my frustration, I informed the indifferent front desk receptionist that I was going to leave as I had waited long enough and to cancel the appt. As a typical PAMF staff member, she shrugged her shoulders and said this counts as a visit and would be billed. So I helplessly waited another 20 mins after which I was summoned inside by a nurse. This woman told, me as though I was being done a favor, that it is the doctor's lunch hour and that she has very limited time to spend with me. A few minutes later Nancy Tang enters the room and asks me my symptoms. She dismissed my condition by telling me that I am slim enough not to have any serious medical issues and that she could write me a prescription for birth control which would take care of the acne. I requested her to conduct a few lab tests (having some basic education myself), to diagnose the cause for the fatigue. She said it is nothing and that she had to leave. In all she spent approx. 5 mins at the door to convey her diagnosis. 

In despair, I went to see another physician at Valley Medical care, who conducted a few tests, and detected hypothyroidism. Of course, as anticipated, PAMF immediately dispatched their invoice for having dispensed advice through their quack. I called PAMF and filed a complaint against this service. I did not hear back from them for 2 months about the outcome of their investigation, instead I was dispatched another invoice. 

Also, this is not an isolated incident from PAMF that I have experienced, perhaps just the most serious and worst. My earnest advice to anyone reading this is to avoid PAMF and their unqualified physicians. And if you have already made the mistake of visiting them, always get a second opinion from another institute.
