4:24pm     Introduction of AAGL MED Talk
4:24pm     AAGL MED Talk I
                    What Defines a Gynecologic Surgical Mentor
                   
Michael Shu, MD
                    Course Description: Minimally invasive gynecologic surgery (MIGS) is on the precipice of 
                    ABOG subspecialty certification which in turn will produce a paradigm shift in the gynecologic
                    surgical care provided for women. As pathology becomes increasingly complex, our field
                    requires leaders and mentors to train and encourage a new generation of surgeons. What
                    defines a gynecologic surgical mentor? And who qualifies to fulfill this role for obstetrician
                    gynecologists at large? This MED Talk highlights why the MIGS subspecialist is most impactful
                    for this purposeful selection and advancement in healthcare and provides evidence - based
                    actions on how gynecologic surgeons may position themselves as consultants and mentors for
                    others in the local community.
                 
                    Learning Objectives:
After attending this session, the participant will be able to: 1) Define WHAT makes a gynecologic
                    surgical mentor, including a highlight of the MIGS subspecialist surgical abilities, and clinical knowledge; 2) Identify WHY
                    the MIGS subspecialist is most appropriate to mentor and teach a new wave of gynecologic surgeons; and 3) Explore
                    HOW the MIGS subspecialist should position himself/herself to be available for consultation, partnership, and most
                    importantly mentorship.
