About
Dr. Lindsay C. Turner is a leading researcher in urogynecology and female pelvic medicine, with a focus on surgical outcomes and patient safety in pelvic organ prolapse (POP) repair. Her work has been instrumental in understanding how regulatory changes and patient demographics affect surgical trends and complications. Notably, her landmark study on "Changes in prolapse surgery trends relative to FDA notifications regarding vaginal mesh" (80 citations) documented a significant shift in clinical practice following safety warnings, providing critical evidence for the impact of regulatory communication on surgical decision-making. Dr. Turner has also advanced knowledge of minimally invasive sacral colpopexy, identifying age as a key predictor of complications (38 citations) and acute urinary retention (32 citations). Her research on postoperative predictors, including the use of retrograde fill voiding trials, offers practical guidance for reducing morbidity and improving recovery. With over 150 citations across her most-cited works, Dr. Turner’s contributions have shaped contemporary approaches to prolapse surgery, emphasizing evidence-based, patient-centered care. Her work remains essential reading for clinicians and researchers navigating the evolving landscape of pelvic reconstructive surgery.
