Reconstructive Urology and Genitourinary Cancer Survivorship Application Process

City of Hope’s Reconstructive Urology and Genitourinary Cancer Survivorship is a 12-month training experience with exposure to all facets of male and female urological reconstructive. The training experience will include opportunities to learn both robotic and transvaginal approaches to female pelvic floor disorders (e.g., sacrocolpopexies, vaginal apical suspensions, fascial slings), in addition to male prosthetics, ureteral reconstruction, urethroplasties, etc. We also encourage our fellows to be engaged with organized urology.
