Home of the first board accredited Female Pelvic Medicine
and Reconstructive Surgery Fellowship Program in the nation!

 

 

Urogynecology Associates is privileged to be associated with the Indiana University/Methodist Hospital Fellowship training program in Female Pelvic Medicine and Reconstructive Surgery, popularly known as Urogynecology.

 

This Fellowship training program began at Urogynecology Associates in 1990 and has graduated one Fellow each year since that time. The program was the first in the nation to be officially approved by the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology with initial accreditation taking place in 1996. The program is now three years in length and jointly accredited by the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology and the American Board of Urology.

 

Fellows are physicians who have already completed full physician training including four years of college, four years of medical school, and four years of residency. In addition, Fellows have frequently practiced medicine for one or more years before beginning fellowship. Although they are licensed physicians in their own right, Fellows have continual faculty supervision and consultation available at all times.

 

The Fellowship program is designed to ensure specialized education and surgical and clinical training of physicians who can improve the health care of women and provide leadership for this specialty.

 

Present Indiana University School of Medicine Female Pelvic Medicine and Reconstructive Surgery Fellows are:  Amy George MD. MBBCH, Nadine Kassis MD. and Miki Takase-Sanchez.  The fellows are directed and supervised by Program Director, Douglass S. Hale, MD.

 

Applications are accepted exclusively through ERAS.
