BEVERLY HILLS, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan 29, 2026--
Dr. Karyn Eilber, a nationally recognized urogynecologist and specialist in female pelvic medicine, has announced the launch of her new membership-based pelvic and bladder health practice in Beverly Hills. Built in partnership with Monarch, the practice is designed to provide women with unrushed, evidence-based care for complex and often overlooked pelvic, bladder, and midlife health concerns.

A Different Approach to Pelvic and Bladder Care for Women
Opening April 1, 2026, the new practice will be located at 436 N. Bedford Drive, Suite 202, and will serve a limited number of members to help ensure meaningful access, continuity, and time for all-encompassing care. Dr. Eilber focuses on conditions such as incontinence, overactive bladder, prolapse, recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs), pelvic floor problems such as chronic pelvic pain, painful sex, sexual dysfunction, and changes related to perimenopause and menopause.
Dr. Eilber is one of the few board-certified female urologists in the Los Angeles area with fellowship training in urogynecology and reconstructive pelvic surgery. She received her medical degree from the UCLA School of Medicine and completed both her urology residency and fellowship at UCLA before joining Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. She is currently a Professor of Urology and Associate Professor of Obstetrics & Gynecology at Cedars-Sinai and previously served as Chair of the Cedars-Sinai Medical Group Department of Surgery.
“Most of the conditions I treat are deeply disruptive and require careful evaluation and ongoing follow-up, yet they are often rushed or treated in isolation in traditional care settings,” said Dr. Eilber. “This practice gives me the time and structure to listen carefully, explain what’s happening, and follow through over time. My goal is to create a place where women feel heard, taken seriously, and supported because pelvic and bladder issues affect quality of life in very real ways and deserve focused, expert care.”
What Members Can Expect from Dr. Eilber’s Practice
“Pelvic and bladder symptoms can be uncomfortable to talk about, but avoiding those intimate conversations is part of why so many women struggle for years,” Dr. Eilber added. “In my practice, we talk openly and without rushing. Education isn’t an afterthought. Understanding why symptoms happen and what’s driving them is a core part of getting better and feeling confident in your care.”
Dr. Eilber’s practice is now accepting members. Women who are interested in learning more or speaking with the practice’s member services team can visit https://www.karyneilbermd.com/ or call (424) 253-0279.

NEW YORK (AP) — The worst day for Microsoft in years is yanking the U.S. stock market away from its record heights on Thursday. The fever in the gold and metals markets may be breaking, meanwhile, as prices pull back following their jaw-dropping runs.
The S&P 500 dropped 1.1% after flirting with its all-time high earlier in the morning. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was down 203 points, or 0.4%, as of 11:15 a.m. Eastern time, and the Nasdaq composite was 2.1% lower.
Microsoft was the heaviest weight on the market by far, and it sank 12.3% even though the tech giant reported stronger profit and revenue for the latest quarter than analysts expected. Investors honed in instead on how much Microsoft is spending on investments, whether growth in its Azure cloud business will slow and how long its push into artificial-intelligence will take to turn into big profits.
Its stock is on track for its worst day since the stock market's COVID crash in 2020, and it was alone responsible for more than half the S&P 500's drop.
Tesla also weighed on the market after falling 2%. It delivered a bigger profit for the latest quarter than analysts expected, but the results were sharply lower than from a year earlier. Tesla’s leader, Elon Musk, has been trying to get investors to focus less on its flagging car sales and more on the company’s robotaxis and robots.
Companies across the market are under pressure to deliver at least solid growth in profits following record-setting runs for their stock prices. Stock prices tend to follow the path of corporate profits over the long term, and earnings need to rise to quiet criticism that stock prices have grown too expensive.
ServiceNow dropped 10.7% even though it reported a stronger profit for the latest quarter than expected. Analysts praised the performance, but it wasn’t enough to stop a slide for the stock that’s been underway since the summer.
Still, more stocks rose in the S&P 500 than fell. Leading them was Meta Platforms. The company behind Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp rallied 7.4% after topping profit expectations, even though it also said it will continue its massive investments in AI.
IBM was another winner and climbed 5.7% after surpassing analysts’ expectations for profit and revenue. Southwest Airlines flew 12.9% higher even though its profit fell short of forecasts. It gave a forecast for earnings in 2026 that blew past analysts’ expectations, saying it’s seeing strong momentum after making big changes to its business like charging baggage fees and having assigned seating.
Some of the wildest action in financial markets was again for precious metals.
Gold’s price rallied near $5,600 per ounce in the morning before suddenly falling back to $5,274.30. That's down 1.2% from the prior day, and it briefly dropped below $5,200.
It was only on Monday that gold's price topped $5,000 for the first time, and it had nearly doubled over the last 12 months.
Silver, which has been zooming higher in its own feverish run, fell 1.6%.
Prices for precious metals had been surging as investors looked for safer things to own while weighing a wide range of risks, including a U.S. stock market that critics call expensive, political instability, threats of tariffs and heavy debt loads for governments worldwide.
But safety can come at a price when it's really expensive. The huge run for gold and silver raised criticism that their prices had run too far, too fast and were due for a pullback. Even bitcoin, which is pitched as a form of “digital gold,” fell sharply. It sank more than 5% and dropped below $85,000.
The U.S. dollar has seen its value sink over the last year because of many of the same risks that drove gold's price higher, but the dollar held relatively steady against the British pound, euro and other competitors Thursday.
In the bond market, the yield on the 10-year Treasury fell to 4.23% from 4.26% late Wednesday.
The Federal Reserve decided Wednesday to at least pause cuts to its main interest rate. That was after the Fed cut rates three times in a row to close out 2025 in an attempt to shore up the job market.
Helping to keep the Fed on pause is the fact that inflation remains stubbornly above the central bank’s 2% target. Lower rates can worsen inflation. They could also further undercut the U.S. dollar’s value, which would help U.S. exporters.
Trump has been pushing aggressively for lower rates and once again on Thursday criticized the Fed's chair, Jerome Powell, personally for being “too late” to cut.
In stock markets abroad, indexes rose across much of Europe and Asia.
South Korea’s Kospi climbed 1% for one of the world’s bigger moves, lifted to another record in part by chipmaker SK Hynix.
