Endometriosis care in Rhode Island

Rhode Island's specialist care is concentrated at Women & Infants Hospital in Providence. Its Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Surgery program lists endometriosis, pelvic pain, fibroids, ovarian cysts, heavy periods and infertility among the conditions it treats, and says its surgeons have two years of additional fellowship training in advanced surgical techniques. The hospital's endometriosis page describes a multidisciplinary approach: surgery is considered when pain persists despite medical management, the goal is to both diagnose and treat the disease, and a colorectal surgery team works alongside gynecology when intestinal endometriosis is suspected, with a combined operation when needed.

Rhode Island adopted the Affordable Care Act Medicaid expansion in 2014, so adults with incomes up to 138 percent of the federal poverty level can qualify for coverage. America's Health Rankings' 2026 report records 0 percent of Rhode Island women aged 15 to 44 living in a county with no obstetric hospital, birth center or obstetric clinician. The Rhode Island Department of Health is the state's public health agency; we could not verify a dedicated women's health page.
