Forward55th Annual Clinical Meeting of the Southwestern Gynecologic Assembly (JS2112C)
As we enter into a new decade, let us focus on the way our world is changing around us and how it will impact the field of gynecology and obstetrics. This meeting will provide the practicing obstetrician gynecologist with new insights into the management of selected topics within our profession.

Advancements in fetal surgery as well as simulation in obstetrics training will be investigated. Emerging trends in the management of female sexual dysfunction and vulvar disorders will be reviewed. We will also focus on the future of OB/GYN private practices and hospitalist medicine.
