About

Cecilia Cheon is a leading researcher in the health economics of pelvic floor disorders, with a particular focus on the cost-effectiveness and economic burden of pelvic organ prolapse (POP) surgery. Her most-cited work, "Economics of pelvic organ prolapse surgery" (2013, 63 citations), provides a foundational analysis of the financial implications of surgical interventions for POP, highlighting disparities in access and resource allocation. Cheon’s research bridges clinical outcomes with economic modeling, offering critical insights for healthcare policy and surgical decision-making. Her contributions have shaped how clinicians and policymakers evaluate the value of POP treatments, emphasizing the need for cost-conscious care without compromising patient outcomes. With over 60 citations on her seminal paper alone, Cheon’s work is widely referenced in urogynecology and health services research. She is also recognized for her collaborative efforts in developing evidence-based guidelines that integrate economic considerations into surgical practice, making her a key voice in the evolving field of pelvic floor health economics.
