Healing Painful Sex: A Woman's Guide to Confronting, Diagnosing, and Treating Sexual Pain (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781580053631)

Dr. Coady has repeatedly been named by Castle Connolly as one of the best doctors in New York; she was granted a prestigious fellowship in September 2009 in the International Society for the Study of Vulvovaginal Disease after presenting her clinical research on vulvodynia; and she was selected as a New York Super Doctor in 2008 and 2009, an award based on peer recognition and professional achievement that is given to the top 5% of New York City doctors. Her professional goal is to help expand and improve care for all women suffering from chronic pelvic pain syndromes.

Nancy Fish, MSW, MPH, began her career as a psychotherapist in 1984. She worked at a Catholic Charities mental health clinic in New York City for two years, at which point she left to work in medical public relations at Porter/Novelli in New York City. She eventually made the decision to return to work full-time as a psychotherapist, and since 1998 she has had a private practice in Bergen County, New Jersey. Fish also works part-time at Dr. Coady's medical practice, where she leads a monthly support group and counsels women with sexual pain.

After developing sexual pain issues in 2006 and being successfully treated by Dr. Coady, Fish felt it was her mission to help women suffering from these horrendous and debilitating conditions. She provides a unique insight and perspective into her patients' issues, and, due to her successful recovery, can offer women hope and insight in how to cope with the overwhelming task of recovering from sexual pain conditions.
