Overview

The Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology & Women's Health offers two sub-specialty fellowships.

Female Pelvic Medicine & Reconstructive Medicine
The three-year fully accredited ACGME fellowship trains physicians to treat patients with dysfunctions of the urinary tract and the pelvic floor, including incontinence and prolapse. Surgical education includes a balance of vaginal and open, laparoscopic, and robotic techniques. Unique opportunities include a laparoscopic dry lab dedicated to the fellowship, a fresh tissue cadaver lab with full laparoscopic set-up, and collaborative research opportunities with University of Louisville clinicians and basic scientists.

Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Surgery

Our two-year AAGL accredited fellowship in minimally invasive gynecologic surgery trains fellows in robotics, advanced laparoscopy, and operative hysteroscopy. We serve as a regional and national referral center for the treatment of fibroids, abnormal uterine bleeding, endometriosis, pelvic pain, and ovarian abnormalities, which provide exceptional surgical experience for trainees.

Maternal-Fetal Medicine
The three-year fully accredited ACGME fellowship trains physicians to treat high risk obstetric patients. We aim to train well rounded leaders by providing outstanding clinical and research training. Fellows actively participate in inpatient and outpatient clinical care of patients with complex medical conditions. Fellows will leave here proficient in performing and interpreting ultrasound evaluation of pregnancies and management complex pregnancies.
