About
Dr. Abigail Gunn is a leading researcher in the field of gynecologic oncology, with a particular focus on the intersection of cancer survivorship, sexual health, and quality of life. Her work has been instrumental in illuminating the often-overlooked physical and psychological consequences of gynecologic cancer treatments. Her highly cited 2013 paper, "The Physical Consequences of Gynecologic Cancer Surgery and Their Impact on Sexual, Emotional, and Quality of Life Issues" (127 citations), serves as a foundational review, systematically detailing how surgical interventions can lead to lasting challenges like sexual dysfunction, infertility, and lymphedema. This work has been pivotal in shifting clinical focus beyond mere survival to encompass holistic patient well-being. Dr. Gunn’s research has not only documented these profound impacts but has also championed the development of innovative, less invasive surgical approaches. Through her scholarship, she has provided a critical framework for understanding and addressing the long-term survivorship needs of women, making her a vital voice in improving both clinical care and the lived experience of cancer patients.
