During March, the specialist team at Spire Cambridge Lea Hospital shone a light on endometriosis, an often invisible condition affecting 1 in 10 people across the UK. For the sixth consecutive year, the hospital has been recognised as an Endometriosis Centre of Excellence by the BSGE, reflecting our commitment to delivering world class diagnosis and treatment.
Today, we’re sharing the story of Tatsiana Ivonchyk, who lived with severe pelvic pain for more than a decade. Despite seeking help several times, her symptoms continued to worsen, impacting every part of her daily life. Everything changed when she met Professor Mohamed Mabrouk, world-renowned gynaecological surgeon and endometriosis specialist. For the first time, Tatsiana felt heard, supported, and understood.
Following expert care and endometriosis excision surgery at Spire Cambridge Lea Hospital, Tatsiana is now living pain free:
💬“I am able to work, exercise and socialise again without pain. Finally understanding the cause of my symptoms has taken away so much anxiety. Living pain free is something I never thought possible.”
Her journey highlights why early diagnosis and specialist-led care are essential, and why no one should feel unheard when it comes to chronic pelvic pain. 💛
