Development of Female Pelvic Medicine and Reconstructive Surgery Fellowship Programs following the Deadline for Senior Accreditation

While the female pelvic medicine and reconstructive surgery fellowship accreditation is designed for graduates of urology and gynecology, there are more programs designated as obstetrics/gynecology than as urology or combined, and obstetrics/gynecology programs are less likely to go unfilled. If urologists are to continue their role as an important part of the female pelvic medicine and reconstructive surgery workforce, we must encourage residents to pursue this career choice.
