Never stop learning!

As Dr. Croak's practice has matured and evolved over time, he has more consistently seen a wide variety of gynecologic issues that are uniquely outside the traditional prolapse and incontinence confines of a urogynecology practice.

Nuanced and complex issues related to intimate anatomy are being seen now more than ever before. Discussions regarding conditions like lichen sclerosis, abnormal scarring, and menopausal aesthetics have become just as important in pelvic health as pelvic support and function and deserve increased attention and treatment solutions.

To answer that need, Dr. Croak recently attended the International Society of Cosmetic Gynecology's annual course. This intensive course involved over 2 days of cadaver dissection and focused instruction by world renown leaders in advanced gynecologic aesthetic surgery.

Dr. Croak graduated with his certification and was also inducted into the society as a member. He is the first in the NW Ohio area to have this training and is another first for his patients.

One of my former residents, Dr. Kelly Gervas, recently had two huge accomplishments!

First, she won 1st place for her scientific poster at the International Society for the Study of Women’s Sexual Health annual scientific conference. Her winning poster was titled: “Treatment Outcomes Across Vulvodynia Subgroups: Phenotype Based Approach.”

Second, she became published in the highly respected peer reviewed journal, Urogynecology. Her article was titled: “Perioperative Antibiotic Choice and Urinary Tract Infections in Prolapse Surgery.”

She currently is a fellow in Sexual Health at University Hospitals in Cleveland and is hoping to be awarded a position as a urogynecology fellow next year.

I am incredibly proud of her for her hard work and tenacity.

It’s wonderful to finally see the FDA considering what we have known to be true for over three decades. HRT is safe for many women and has so many profound benefits towards leaving a long lasting and healthier life!

The FDA is reevaluating longtime warnings on hormone replacement therapy products for menopausal women. Some advocates for change say the so-called “black box” that lists health risks is discouraging women from undergoing HRT and receiving long-term benefits. Joining “Elizabeth Vargas Reports....

3 yrs. ago Dr. Croak was on an 80 mile mountain trek at Philmont with his eldest son when he was called to aid Mr. Priyesh Patel, a Scoutmaster from Dallas, Tx.

Mr. Patel slipped off a wet log bridge and into the creek below. He sustained a compound fracture of his left ankle, was hypothermic, and in shock.

Dr. Croak administered first aid & had Mr. Patel’s scouts jump in to stabilize and monitor him until the Medivac could arrive a few hours later. Not bad for a gynecologist!

Scoutmaster Patel reached out to Dr. Croak recently to say he has healed well and finally finished his own trek this year by summitting 12,000ft Mt. Baldy.

They’ve since become good friends - proof you never know how or where you’ll make a good buddy!
