Celebrating the 2026 CSPM Award for Excellence in FPMRS Recipients

The Canadian Society for Pelvic Medicine is proud to recognize 13 exceptional Obstetrics and Gynecology residents as the 2026 recipients of the CSPM Award for Excellence in Female Pelvic Medicine and Reconstructive Surgery (FPMRS) — one meritorious resident from each Canadian residency program, nominated by their Program Director.

Together, they represent the next generation of clinicians and leaders in pelvic health care across Canada.

About the Award

The Award for Excellence in FPMRS honours residents who have completed a program-mandated clinical rotation in urogynecology (or equivalent) and who have demonstrated superior evidence-based knowledge, procedural skills, and a clear commitment to pursuing subspecialty training in FPMRS.

Each recipient received a certificate of recognition and a complimentary one-year CSPM membership. Recipients were honoured at the CSPM Awards Ceremony during the 7th Annual Scientific Meeting in Ottawa, May 1–3, 2026.
