An OB/GYN at a southwest integrated health network specializes in chronic and complex conditions (e.g., fibroids, cysts, endometriosis, menstrual disorders, contraception, infertility, pelvic pain, and reconstructive surgery). This stakeholder discusses investment and advances in robotics in the surgery space and regulatory challenges with pelvic mesh.They consider challenges to be greatest for non-invasive diagnostics, lacking gold standard for testing/treatment, lacking reimbursement, and limited access to care. They rate unmet needs and activity for precision medicine in the next 1-2 years moderately overall across applications, but highest in both the menstrual health and contraceptive spaces. This stakeholder discusses the complexity of pelvic pain and endometriosis and the challenges and unknowns associated with fibroids. They are particularly excited by activity by eCoin and MobileODT. In the future, they expect robotics advances will play a big role in their use of precision medicine.
