“At Cooper University Hospital, I was exposed to all the different aspects of Urogynecology during my three years of Fellowship. There was a great amount of independence with Attendings always being available. There was a strong emphasis on teaching you not just about the surgeries and patient care, but about how to run an efficient office correctly. 

The experience is very well rounded with all aspects of patient care that you do not find in many other Urogynecology Fellowship Programs. The people you work with are great and always willing to help and go the extra mile for you."

The variety and volume of surgeries is unmatched by any other fellowship program. However, that is not all you learn. Most importantly, they will show you how much you should care about patients."
