About the Program
Welcome to the Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Surgery Fellowship at Baylor College of Medicine. Our program is located in Houston, the fourth largest city in the nation, through which our fellows rotate in the largest medical center in the world during their two years of post-residency training. Since its inception, our fellowship has provided comprehensive training in medical and surgical aspects of minimally invasive gynecologic surgery.
We strive to train surgeons who will become academic leaders that are invaluable to their communities as experts in the management of complex gynecological issues. Our fellows are exposed to the full range of minimally invasive techniques, including traditional laparoscopy, robotic assisted laparoscopy, single incision laparoscopy, and vaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery.
Thank you for your interest in our program and in reviewing our website.
Respectfully,
