Dr. Schuster's bio
This content was provided by Dr. Schuster "With an undergraduate degree in business and a new marriage, my wife and I were quickly challenged with fertility issues. This prompted me to reset and I returned to college for an undergraduate degree in chemistry. This started the medical road in Obstetrics and Gynecology. Working in the reproductive endocrine portion of the UAB ObGyn Department, I quickly realized my enjoyment of surgery and continued this avenue of training working with Drs. Wynn Wiser and Rodney Meeks. Their contributions to the development of gynecologic surgery is well documented in the annals of the Society of Gynecologic Surgeons. Urogynecology is the culmination of the pelvic floor surgical skills and the scientific community's foundational research. Now the treatment of pelvic floor disorders is medical and surgical with the gentle blend of both tools in assisting women with the best therapy for their specific problem. "
