About

Janelle K. Moulder is a leading gynecologic surgeon whose research focuses on optimizing surgical outcomes through enhanced recovery pathways, minimally invasive techniques, and specialized care for diverse patient populations. Her most impactful work, a 2018 study with 65 citations, identified key predictors of hospital admission after implementing an Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) pathway for minimally invasive gynecologic surgery—a critical contribution that helps surgeons reduce unnecessary admissions while maintaining patient safety. Dr. Moulder also advanced the safety of laparoscopic myomectomy through a pilot study on peritoneal washings after power morcellation (35 citations), addressing a vital concern in gynecologic oncology. Her expertise extends to complex reproductive surgeries, including robotic-assisted removal of cesarean scar ectopic pregnancies (32 citations), and she has pioneered research on hysterectomy for transgender men, a landmark study (4 citations) that underscores her commitment to inclusive, evidence-based care. With a career defined by innovation in surgical protocols and a focus on patient-centered outcomes, Dr. Moulder’s work continues to shape modern gynecologic practice.
