“Dr. Marek Jantos is one of the world’s pre-eminent clinicians and researchers on topics related to pelvic pain. He is a master clinician with more experience in this area than anyone that I am familiar with. His approach is professional, but warm and compassionate, and is guided by his successes with hundreds (if not thousands) of patients.

Dr. Jantos is universally respected and esteemed by his colleagues around the world. I can think of no other clinician to whom I would be more confident in making a referral.”

"I have known Dr Marek Jantos at a professional level for 18 years, and have worked in a close collegiate relationship with him since my return to Australia in November 1996. As a person, I find him to be honourable, industrious, trustworthy, compassionate and reliable. Professionally, I find him to be an esteemed and valued colleague.

I first became aware of Dr Jantos’ research on the ability of biofeedback controlled pelvic muscle rehabilitation to break chronic vulvodynia pain loops at an International Vulvar Pain meeting. It is fair to say that this research done by Drs Glazer and Jantos has revolutionized the medical management of vulvodynia on a global basis.

Upon commencing gynaecological practice in Sydney, I renewed my association with Dr Jantos. Over the ensuing 14 years, Dr Jantos and I have co-managed more than 500 vulvar and pelvic pain patients, with longterm success rates of >95% – most of which is attributable to the efficacy of his biofeedback and myofascial release program. The excellence of his continuing research has been recognised by several publications in the peer reviewed medical literature and by the bestowing of a PhD from Adelaide University.

On a personal note, I have also come to know his wife and two daughters quite well, and have stayed in their home in the Adelaide Hills. Dr Jantos is in every respect the soul of integrity. I support his work completely, with no reservation whatsoever."

"Marek Jantos Ph.D. is one of a small and highly specialised group of experts in the treatment of “vulvodynia.”

For many years now he has recognised the complexities in diagnosing and treating "sexual pain disorders" in women, many of whom had previously, and regrettably, been advised that it was purely a "psychological" problem.

In the past eight years, I have worked with a number of Dr Jantos’s patients to address psychological trauma, self-esteem and relationship difficulties that often arise out of this very distressing disorder. His treatment highlights the necessity for comprehensive investigation of the biological and physiological components of sexual pain disorders.

His work with several thousand patients over the past 15 years is detailed in his PhD thesis. I consider him a pioneer in a highly specialized field of psychophysiology."
