Fibroid Institute Opens New Fibroid Clinic in the Heights area of Houston, TX

Oct 25, 2026

Fibroid Institute opens its newest fibroid clinic to serve the Greater Heights and Memorial Heights areas of Houston, Texas. With additional locations, this specialized concierge medical practice provides local access to care for thousands of women seeking non-surgical relief from fibroids.

Addison, United States, October 25, 2026 /PressCable/ -- HOUSTON, TEXAS, USA (October 2026): The Fibroid Institute, a revolutionary medical practice providing non-surgical fibroid treatment to women with symptomatic uterine fibroids, announces the recent expansion of its acclaimed medical practice with a new fibroid clinic in Central Houston near the Greater Heights and Memorial Heights areas.

This additional location allows the Fibroid Institute to expand access to life-changing, minimally invasive fibroid treatment in South Texas, supporting more women through their unique journeys toward better health.

Central Houston’s New Fibroid Clinic

Located at 5151 Katy Freeway, Suite 170, Houston, TX 77007, the new fibroid clinic is centrally located off Interstate 10 in the Greater Heights area.

Fibroid Institute’s founder Dr. Suzanne Slonim said, “Our goal has always been to positively impact women’s lives and raise awareness about alternative fibroid treatments. Continuing our expansion throughout Houston simply makes sense in that regard. Too many women still believe the only answer to their uncomfortable symptoms is to have a hysterectomy. But this couldn’t be further from the truth. Fibroid pain should not be normalized, and women throughout Texas need to know they have options.”

Dr. John Fischer, Houston medical director for the Fibroid Institute, agreed. “We couldn’t be happier about this opportunity to add another convenient location for women in South Texas. I also grew up in the area and have deep roots and close personal ties to Houston, so continuing to add more locations here is very special to me.”

“Many women do not know their symptoms are related to fibroids. Some don’t seek medical help until their condition has become life-altering,” Dr. Fischer added. “Additionally, some women who do seek medical care are not made aware of all available treatment options. Some may wish to avoid major surgery for a variety of reasons but are not given other options. By having more locations, we can spread our message more easily and serve our patients better. All our locations, including the new fibroid clinic in Central Houston, provide local access to a life-changing treatment so many women don’t realize exists.”

The Fibroid Institute continues to provide the personalized, concierge patient care that the five-star patient-reviewed medical practice is known for. Patients will not need to travel as far for non-surgical fibroid treatment. Many more women will benefit from uterine fibroid embolization (UFE), performed by experienced, highly skilled specialists at the Fibroid Institute.

About Uterine Fibroids and UFE

Uterine fibroids are abnormal growths in the uterus that affect three out of four women, most often between the ages of 30 and 50. Although usually benign, fibroids may lead to life-altering symptoms, such as severe pelvic pain and heavy periods. Fibroids can cause abdominal bloating, urinary frequency, back pain, and reproductive dysfunction, including miscarriage, early labor, and infertility. They are often discovered during routine health testing.

Uterine fibroid embolization (UFE) utilizes state-of-the-art techniques to shrink fibroids and alleviate fibroid symptoms. The Fibroid Institute's experienced fibroid specialists make a tiny nick on the patient’s left wrist. A very small catheter is inserted and advanced to the uterine arteries using image-guided interventional radiology. The physician uses X-ray guidance to locate the vessels that supply blood to the fibroids. The physician injects small particles into the vessels, blocking blood flow to the fibroids and causing them to shrink. There’s no hospital stay or incision. UFE can treat all fibroids at one time, so there is no need for multiple treatment sessions. Furthermore, recovery generally takes only 7 days for most women.

Recovery time is much shorter than fibroid surgery because it is less invasive and not surgical. Most insurance plans cover the procedure, and the success rate is over 90%.

About Dr. John Fischer, Houston Medical Director

In the 25+ years of treating fibroid patients, Dr. John Fischer has empowered and helped thousands of women live their lives to the fullest, free from fibroid symptoms. With Dr. Fischer’s care, women no longer must face the dilemma of enduring fibroid pain or undergoing surgery for fibroids.

Very few practices across the nation are dedicated 100% to fibroid treatment. The concierge model at the Fibroid Institute means patients receive personalized, comprehensive care from the initial consultation through post-procedure follow-ups. Patients also have access to their fibroid doctor’s mobile phone number to call or text 24/7 with questions and concerns.

In addition to prioritizing patient needs, the Fibroid Institute helps reduce the healthcare costs of fibroid treatment. National demand for non-surgical fibroid procedures is growing. UFE is a minimally invasive outpatient procedure that does not require a hospital stay, so it costs less than traditional fibroid surgeries such as hysterectomy. Thousands of women have turned to the experience and knowledge of the Fibroid Institute team for non-surgical uterine fibroid treatment.

UST, UP victorious in Round of 8 opener

MANILA, Philippines — University of Santo Tomas weathered a fourth-set scare from Ateneo De Manila University to eke out a 25-16, 25-20, 21-25, 25-21, victory in the Round of 8 Pool F opener of the 2026 Shakey’s Super League (SSL) Unity Cup Round of 8 on Sunday at the Imus Sports Complex. The Golden Tigresses held off the Blue Eagles in the tight fourth frame after squandering a six-point lead to remain unbeaten in the league’s centerpiece competition, backed by Shakey’s Pizza Parlor, Peri-Peri Charcoal Chicken, Potato Corner and R&B Milk Tea. UST controlled the first two sets, only to lose steam in the third before showing resolve late in the fourth to seal the two-hour, nine-minute win and inch closer to clinching a quarterfinals twice-to-beat advantage. “Sa third set, nakulangan kami sa attack variation and 'yung diskarte namin since nababasa na ng kalaban 'yung mga ginagawa namin. 'Yung ginawa naming adjustments sa fourth set is mas sinipagan namin and mas naging mahaba ang pasensya namin sa sarili namin kapag naba-block o nadedepensahan kami,” said Tigresses winger Marga Altea, who scored 15 points on 11 kills and four kill blocks. Ashlee Knop finished with 12 points while Angge Poyos and Regina Jurado added 11 markers each for UST, which extended its winning streak to four after sweeping the first round. After surrendering the third set, the Tigresses raced to an 18-12 lead in the fourth. However, Ateneo refused to go down without a fight and countered with an 8-2 run to tie it at 20. But the Blue Eagles shot themselves in the foot after Dona De Leon and Alexia Montoro committed back-to-back errors, giving UST a two-point cushion. Jihan Chuatico saved a point for Ateneo but UST scored three straight points, capped by a Poyos ace to close the match. De Leon and Bea Buena finished with 12 points each while Chuatico had nine markers for the Blue Eagles. Meanwhile, University of the Philippines recovered from an opening set hiccup to beat Letran, 21-25, 25-22, 25-22, 25-16, in Pool F. The Fighting Maroons carried the momentum of their three-game first-round sweep to draw closer to clinching a quarters incentive in the competition, which has the Philippine Sports Commission, the Commission on Higher Education, Mikasa, Asics, Rigour Technology, Jersey Haven, Solar Sports and 12 Beyond Production as technical partners. Jelai Gajero pumped in 17 points on 15 kills and two kill blocks to lead UP. Jenn Gould had 14 markers on 12 attacks and two kill blocks while Kianne Olango scored 12 of her 13 points on spikes for the Fighting Maroons, who got 32 free points off the Lady Knights’ errors. Setter Kizzie Madriaga tallied 15 excellent sets while backup playmaker Julia De Leon dished out 14. UP regrouped after surrendering the first set as it showed composure and grit in the tight closing stretches of the second and third frames. The Fighting Maroons used a 6-0 spurt to break a 12-12 tie and gain control of the fourth frame. UP opened an eight-point lead, 22-14, before finishing off the Lady Knights with a 3-2 run capped by an Olango offspeed hit. “Need lang talaga namin and makabawi doon sa first set kasi nga medyo off ang laro namin nung first set. Sinabi rin ni coach na gamitin ang utak kaya yun tinrabaho lang talaga naming lahat,” Gould said. “We worked as a team kaya nanalo kami,” she added. Judiel Nitura was the lone Letran player in double-digit scoring after logging 12 points on 11 kills and an ace. Gia Maquilang and Kaizah Huyno added nine markers each for the reigning NCAA champion. Action continues on Wednesday at the Ninoy Aquino Stadium. All games in the competition are available live and on demand via PusoP.com and Solar Sports.

Russia to host 2030 world weightlifting champs in Olympic federation first

PARIS, France — Moscow was announced Sunday as host of the 2030 world weightlifting championships, the sport's governing body becoming the first Olympic federation to hand Russia global staging rights since 2022. No world championships in an Olympic sport, summer or winter, have been held in Russia since the start of the war against Ukraine. The 2025 world swimming champs, initially attributed to the Russian city of Kazan, were moved to Singapore. "Concerning the IWF (Senior) World Championships in 2029, it will be staged in Ahmedabad (India), and Moscow (Russia) will host the 2030 edition," the International Weightlifting Federation (IWF) said in a statement. IWF general secretary Jose Quinones added that "all the bids we received were excellent and we are sure that the championships in your respective countries will be a huge success". In a post on Telegram, Russian Weightlifting Federation president Aleksandr Vinokurov thanked the IWF "for their trust", with the 2030 world champs also serving as a qualifying event for the 2032 Olympic Games. "Russia has all the necessary experience and capabilities to host competitions of the highest level," he said. "Moscow has repeatedly staged major international sporting events and has modern infrastructure." The federation toasted its success in snagging the hosting rights. "The Russian Weightlifting Federation is the first Olympic sports federation to succeed in bringing a top-level official competition back to the country in many years," it said. The decision to name Moscow as the host is a ground-breaking one and comes in the wake of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) announcing a pathway for Russian athletes to compete in international competition. A state-sponsored doping program implemented, according to the World Anti-Doping Agency, at the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympic Games, and the assault on Ukraine launched by President Vladimir Putin in 2022 resulted in Russians competing in various guises at international competition, most recently as Individual Neutral Athletes. However, on July 7 Russia came in from the cold when the IOC eased restrictions on Russian athletes and opened a pathway for them to compete in qualifying events for the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics. A furious Ukraine filed an appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) requesting that the IOC decision be annulled.
