About

Dr. Peter S. Finamore is a leading urologic surgeon and researcher whose work has profoundly shaped clinical practice in female pelvic medicine and reconstructive surgery. He is best known for his pivotal role in developing evidence-based guidelines for thromboembolism prevention, most notably as a co-author of the "AUA Best Practice Statement for the Prevention of Deep Vein Thrombosis in Patients Undergoing Urologic Surgery" (2009), which has garnered over 160 citations and remains a cornerstone of perioperative safety. Dr. Finamore’s major contributions center on advancing robotic-assisted sacrocolpopexy, where he has systematically investigated surgical learning curves, the impact of obesity on outcomes, and the management of complications—including his pioneering reports on delayed small bowel obstruction from barbed sutures and reoperation rates after robotic versus vaginal mesh repairs. His work, encompassing over 200 citations, has directly improved surgical technique and patient safety in complex pelvic reconstruction. Notably, his research on robotic approaches for failed sacrocolpopexy and rare complications like pessary-induced vesicovaginal fistula demonstrates his commitment to solving the most challenging clinical problems. Dr. Finamore’s blend of rigorous evidence synthesis and innovative surgical insights makes him a vital voice in modern urology.
