Meet Our Urogynecologists
The urogynecologic surgeons at the University of Chicago Medicine are leading surgeon-scientists at the forefront of evidence-based efforts to improve the quality of life for patients with pelvic floor disorders and other pelvic health conditions.
Specialists in Complex Pelvic Floor Disorders
A urogynecologist is a board-certified and fellowship-trained subspecialty surgeon with expertise in treating pelvic floor disorders and other pelvic conditions in women.
Urogynecologic surgeons complete seven years of surgical training after medical school, including three years of fellowship training in urogynecology and reconstructive pelvic surgery. With this subspecialty training and certification, urogynecologic surgeons offer patients integrated, personalized care plans and minimally invasive surgical treatments for pelvic floor disorders.
Our multidisciplinary team also includes experienced physical therapists, advanced practice nurses and physician assistants. Through the Center for Pelvic Health, we also work alongside other skilled specialists, including colorectal surgeons, radiologists and gastroenterologists to provide integrated, patient-centered care to address common and complex pelvic floor disorders.
