About

Dr. Nicole Thompson is a leading voice in urogynecology and minimally invasive pelvic reconstructive surgery, with a focused expertise in optimizing surgical outcomes for pelvic organ prolapse. Her landmark work, "Short-Term Outcomes of Vaginal Hysterectomy at the Time of Robotic Sacrocolpopexy," addresses a critical tension in modern surgical training: the decline in vaginal hysterectomy experience with the rise of robotic approaches. By demonstrating the feasibility and safety of performing concomitant vaginal hysterectomy during robotic sacrocolpopexy, Dr. Thompson provided a practical framework for preserving essential surgical skills while embracing technological advances. Her research has been instrumental in shaping residency curricula and operative protocols, ensuring that trainees maintain proficiency in both vaginal and robotic techniques. With her work cited by peers seeking to balance innovation with foundational surgical education, Dr. Thompson’s contributions underscore a commitment to evidence-based practice and the future of surgical training. Her findings continue to influence how high-volume centers approach combined procedures, making her a key figure in the evolution of modern urogynecologic surgery.
