What Our Patients Say About Their Journey

Testimonial by Rosanna R., age 35

After the birth of my son I suffered from "Vaginismus", however, at the time I just thought I was broken. My "broken vagina" affected me physically but it was an emotional struggle as well.

I am SO HAPPY I found Heather's office! I was working...
