In this episode of the BackTable OBGYN Podcast, host Dr. Amy Park welcomes urogynecologist Dr. Maggie Mueller to discuss how we can improve the peer review process in the field of obstetrics and gynecology.

About

Margaret (Maggie) Mueller, MD, FACOG, FACS, is an internationally recognized urogynecologist and reconstructive pelvic surgeon. Her expertise in minimally invasive and robotic gynecologic techniques allows her to offer a wider range of treatment options so that each patient’s care is personal and customized to their specific needs and goals. Along with her team, she pioneered the Single Port Robotic Surgery Program, providing patients with accelerated recovery. Dr. Mueller cares for patients with pelvic organ prolapse, urinary incontinence, fecal incontinence, complex urogenital fistulas and mesh complications, tailoring each treatment plan to meet the goals of her patients. Additionally, Dr Mueller has niche surgical expertise in the management of congenital genitourinary anomalies in adolescents and young women. Recognizing the need for high-quality care in this patient population, she received a special ABOG Focus of Practice designation in Pediatric and Adolescent Gynecology and founded a multidisciplinary program dedicated to caring for adolescents and young women with congenital anomalies, such as Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser (MRKH) syndrome.

Along with her commitment to her clinical practice, Dr. Mueller is dedicated to advancing the field of urogynecology and reconstructive pelvic surgery through high-quality research. She is an avid National Institutes of Health (NIH)-funded investigator leading multicenter, cutting-edge research to better the care women with pelvic floor disorders receive.

Nationally, she has partnered with organizations including the Accreditation Council of Graduate Medical Education (ACGME), American Urogynecologic Society (AUGS) and American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology (ABOG) in developing curricula, redesigning milestones, and participating in the certification pathway to influence the education of the next generation of urogynecologic surgeons.
