Requirements for Surgeon Credentialing for the
Center for Endometriosis
Care fellowship program:
Since our
inception more than twenty years ago, the CEC adheres to the principles and
vision of our Founder, Robert B. Albee, Jr., MD. The CEC’s core focus is to improve the lives
of women and girls, with dual emphasis on the critical importance of leaving a
legacy. To that end, the CEC routinely
trains others in the art and science of laparoscopic excision, both in the U.S.
and abroad, and we welcome all interested surgeon candidates to contact us
today to learn more.
Minimum
requirements to receive CEC credentialing:
- Board certified by the
American College of OB/GYN (ACOG)
- Demonstrated skill at MIGS/advanced
laparoscopy
- Certified by AAGL or Accreditation
Council for Gynecologic Endoscopy or an equivalent/appropriate
accreditation organization
- Understand and agree with the
science behind and principles of LAPEX (laparoscopic excision) – “modern
concepts”
- Uniformly use LAPEX on every
case of endometriosis
Maintain
data on the following:
- Complications
- Pain relief
- Endometriosis recurrence
Fellows
go on in practice to adhere to the CEC’s approach:
Gather a team of surgeons
ready to complete the excision at the initial surgery (for example, for
invasive bowel or bladder disease)
- Maintain the CEC reputation
for compassion, expertise, and interest in advancing the treatment and
understanding of women with endometriosis
Candidates,
colleagues and members of industry who would like to invite our surgical team
to train your constituency or be considered for a fellowship here, please contact
our Surgical Program Director today.
