A gynecologist trained at Hospital Vila da Serra in Belo Horizonte, Dr. Gustavo Pizani completed his subspecialty training in Gynecologic Surgery at Hospital da Baleia and furthered his surgical training in France at the Franco-European Endometriosis Institute (IFEMENDO), in Italy through courses in deep pelvic anatomy at the International School of Surgical Anatomy, and in Egypt through the Egyptian Society for Minimally Invasive Surgery.

On the First consultation page, you can select the reason for your appointment.

The consultation is an opportunity to discuss your symptoms, medical history, previous treatments, and available test results. This information helps guide the discussion of your questions, any further investigations needed, and care options for your situation.

Complete the relevant form in the appointment booking section to help the team prepare for your visit.

Where are consultations held?

In-person consultations are available in the Belo Horizonte area, at the Hospital Vila da Serra consulting rooms, Rua da Paisagem, 480, 6th floor, in Nova Lima, and in Ponte Nova, Minas Gerais. Online consultations are also available, depending on the purpose of the appointment.

Before traveling, confirm the location, appointment format, and full address with the team.

Which test results and documents should I bring?

Bring an identification document, any test results you already have, reports and images, records of previous surgeries, and a list of your current medications. Writing down your symptoms and questions can also help guide the discussion.

You do not need to arrange new tests on your own. Check with the team for any specific instructions for your consultation.

When should I seek an assessment for endometriosis?

Period pain that disrupts daily activities, persistent pelvic pain, pain during intercourse, or bowel and urinary symptoms related to the menstrual cycle warrant assessment. Difficulty becoming pregnant may also warrant investigation. These signs alone do not confirm endometriosis.

Find more answers in our endometriosis FAQ.

Does every surgical assessment lead to surgery?

No. An assessment may lead to monitoring, medical treatment, additional tests, or a discussion about surgery. The decision takes into account the diagnosis, symptoms, previous treatments, reproductive goals, benefits, and risks.

You can ask about the alternatives and why a particular option is being proposed for your case.

How is the surgical approach chosen?

The choice depends on the location and extent of the condition, the procedure required, your health, and previous surgeries. Hysteroscopy, laparoscopy, robotic surgery, and other approaches have different applications.

Surgical planning should explain the reasons for the proposed approach, the alternatives, and the care expected during recovery.

How is care arranged for patients from other cities?

The first step is to contact the team to arrange an assessment and send any available test results. If a procedure is recommended, planning should cover in-person appointments, an accompanying person, the length of your stay in the city, and follow-up care after discharge.

Confirm these arrangements before booking travel. Visit the page on care for patients from other cities and states.
