About us

Who are we?

The American Board of Cosmetic Gynecology (ABCG) prides itself on setting the highest standards for gynecological surgeons. ABCG Board Certification is for surgeons who already possess at least one recognized board certification, have completed comprehensive fellowship training in cosmetic gynecology (Step 1 and Step 2) and have passed a rigorous written and oral examination that focuses on all aspects of cosmetic surgery.

We are a diverse, multi-disciplinary body of cosmetic gynecologic surgeons

We are a diverse and multidisciplinary team of cosmetic gynecological surgeons.

No single medical specialty can claim to have made advances in female genital surgery, a complex area involving a number of interconnected body systems. Therefore, no single type of surgeon can know all there is to know about the intricacies and relationships between the soft tissue structures of the genital area.
As such, we are proud to be a diverse group of surgeons who come from different training backgrounds, including gynecologists, plastic surgeons, general surgeons, and dermatologists. In addressing the complexity of the female reproductive system, we benefit from the breadth and depth of knowledge provided by these interconnected subspecialties. We believe that this synergy of perspectives enhances the teaching and practice of cosmetic gynecological surgery.
