A urogynaecologist is someone who has first trained in obstetrics and gynaecology before undertaking 3 years of additional training specifically in pelvic floor disorders and pelvic reconstructive surgery to obtain subspecialist qualifications. By choosing to see a subspecialist urogynaecologist you ensure the highest quality of care for your pelvic floor disorders as well as for the treatment of your gynaecological conditions.
