Meet Our Team: Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Surgery

Master
Content

At Baylor College of Medicine, our minimally invasive gynecologic surgeons are recognized by patients and providers alike for the exceptional surgical care they provide, improving women’s gynecologic health while reducing their recovery time, pain and scarring.

Our patients benefit from the safest, most effective minimally invasive procedures available for the treatment of gynecologic conditions such as pelvic organ prolapse, endometriosis and uterine fibroids, among others, eliminating the need for open surgery and a large abdominal incision.

In all cases, we are dedicated to taking the most conservative approach available, treating medically whenever possible to avoid the need for surgery. When surgery is required, our fellowship-trained surgeons perform proven procedures that require only tiny incisions – if external incisions are needed at all – providing safer, highly successful alternatives with easier recovery and faster return to normal activities.

We are experienced across the full range of minimally invasive techniques, including hysteroscopic, laparoscopic, robotic, vaginal and single-site surgeries. Our specialists are equally skilled in determining the appropriate use of these techniques based on each patient’s unique needs and goals.    

As Baylor College of Medicine faculty members, we are continually moving the field of minimally invasive surgery forward through research, contributing to the development of new surgical techniques and technologies, and teaching and training new generations of surgeons on the latest minimally invasive procedures.
