A message from the 49th President of the Society of Gynecologic Surgeons
Under the leadership of President Dr. Carl Zimmerman and scientific program chair, Dr. Oz Harmanli, the theme of the 48th Scientific Program meeting at La Cantera Indeed, Dr. Amy Park, the 2023 SGS Scientific Program chair, and I have a very tough act to follow at the 49th SGS Annual Scientific Meeting, planned for March 19-22, 2023 at the beautiful J.W. Marriott Starr Pass Hotel & Spa in Tucson, Arizona. We have selected the theme “Impact Factor” to acknowledge the impact that this society has had on many of us as evidenced by the society’s culture of knowledge-sharing and mentorship, as well as the impact of the scientific presentations and collaborative research and reviews generated by the FPRN®, Pelvic Anatomy Group (PAG), CoRPS, and Systematic Review Group (SRG). We welcome your recommendations and participation and new ideas for outings, entertainment, and camaraderie. In the meantime, please be on the lookout for news about volunteer opportunities for one of a dozen SGS committees and news about the upcoming Winter Postgraduate Course slated for November 4-7. In addition, check out the home page for information on how to become a new member. Members may nominate new SGS members by completing the Propose a New Member Form. Also, check out the new video presented by Dr. John Gebhart on the Tradition of Mentoring at SGS. You will surely recognize a few friendly faces in this video and gain appreciation for the dedication, passion, and impact of this incredible Society. I am so humbled and honored to serve as the society’s 49th President. Truly yours, SGS Board Supports ACOG Efforts to Protect a Woman's Right to Healthcare and Preservation of the Physician-Patient RelationshipWe on the SGS Board of Directors support ACOG and its efforts to protect a woman's right to healthcare and preservation of the physician-patient relationship.

Thanks to the hard work from the SGS' Systematic Review Group (SRG) and the Collaborative Research in Pelvic Surgery Consortium (CoRPS) the above titled manuscript is now published in the International Urogynecology Journal. Click HERE to read the manuscript.
The mission of the Society of Gynecologic Surgeons is to promote excellence in gynecologic surgery through acquisition of knowledge and improvement of skills, advancement of basic and clinical research, and professional and public education.
The Society prides itself in mentoring young gynecologic surgeons and investigators and this is reflected with the founding of both the Fellows' Pelvic Research Network (FPRN®) and the Systematic Review Groups (SRG) in 2007, both groups held in high esteem by other medical societies. In 2020, SGS took over the management of the Collaborative Research In Pelvic Surgery Consortium(CoRPS). The CoRPS is open to all SGS members and nonmembers who would like to participate in multi-center research in all subspecialties focused on gynecologic surgery. All career levels are welcome, particularly early and mid-career attendings.
