Testimonials
“I’ve suffered with pain during intercourse for more than 20 years. After several surgeries including a hysterectomy Dr. Butrick was the first Dr. to describe that the pain was caused by my muscles. They were too tight and painful. After physical therapy and the use of muscle relaxers I can now have sex without pain. It has changed my life.”

“I was diagnosed to have interstitial cystitis at age 16. I was told that there was nothing that could be done. With Dr. Butrick's help my symptoms of frequent episodes of bladder pain and urinary frequency have almost totally gone away. His treatments not only made my bladder work better but I also have less problems with constipation. He has worked miracles when others told me nothing could be done.”

“Endometriosis has ruled my life since my very first period when I was 11. I have had multiple surgeries and they seemed to help for only a few months. When I saw Dr. Butrick he explained that not only did I have endometriosis but that I also had interstitial cystitis, vulvodynia and pelvic floor muscle pain. I had never heard of these other problems. I only knew that the pain was unbearable and I was not able to have sex because of pain and burning. It would always trigger a bladder infection. All those problems are gone now.”
