Dr. Podraza is also trained in minimally invasive gynecologic surgery including DaVinci Robotic-assisted surgery. Dr. Podraza is one of only a few OBGYN’s in the country trained in NaPro technology – a women’s health science that focuses on corrective and cooperative treatments for conditions such as infertility, recurrent miscarriage, premature delivery, and various menstrual irregularities including irregular periods, heavy bleeding, and PMS. Dr. Podraza treats women who prefer a more natural and cooperative approach to obstetrics and gynecology, as well as those who are seeking alternatives to artificial reproductive technologies.
