Description

Dr. Jeff Arrington is an outspoken endometriosis advocate, expert endometriosis excision surgeon, and advanced Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Surgery specialist. The evolution of his practice to focus on advanced excision of endometriosis really was driven by patient need. In practice he was able to continue advancing knowledge and surgical skill through focusing on endometriosis care, eventually building a full multi-disciplinary practice.  Now, after his last 4 years as a surgeon at the Center for Endometriosis Care in Atlanta, GA, he is opening a new world-class endometriosis clinic, EndoWest, in the greater Salt Lake Valley. 



Dr. Arrington is well known in the endometriosis community as one who advocates for all patients both in and out of the OR, constantly working to improve care options for patients with a focus on true and truthful informed consent and a higher value to patient autonomy.



We have a great conversation about what informed consent is, why it’s so vital, and what it would like look with endometriosis care. We also discuss changes we’d like to see in the ACOG endometriosis guidelines, and what we hope for the future of endometriosis treatment.
