Adult and Pediatric Genitourinary Reconstructive Surgery
What sets us apart?
As one of 20 participating Society of Genitourinary Reconstructive Surgeons fellowships in the world, our training program has been advancing fellows' knowledge and skill in both male and female reconstructive urological surgery since 1975.
Our fellows perform advanced procedures with attending supervision, including from our fellowship-trained pelvic reconstructive physicians on staff. As fellows progress, they can supervise senior-level residents as first-assistants in surgery, examine outcomes and present findings from outcome reviews.
Where you'll train
Urology of Virginia
Urology of Virginia is an outpatient practice that provides treatment for kidney, urinary tract, prostate, pelvic or other urological needs. Our trainees provide surgical services for disorders of the male and female genitourinary tract at the practice's Devine-Jordan Center for Reconstructive Surgery and Pelvic Health. Faculty train fellows on the clinical aspects of diagnosis, medical and surgical therapy, and the prevention of and reconstruction for these disease processes. As the fellowship progresses, trainees may function as direct supervisors of a senior resident-level physician, who will function as a first-assistant while an attending physician provides overall supervision of advanced procedures.
