ABOUT THE BRITISH SOCIETY FOR GYNAECOLOGICAL ENDOSCOPY
The British Society for Gynaecological Endoscopy exists to improve standards, promote training and encourage the exchange of information in minimal access surgery techniques for women with gynaecological problems.
Originally founded in 1989 by a small group of consultant gynaecologists, the society has since grown to the dynamic, active society it is today, with a membership of over a thousand consultants, trainees, specialist nurse practitioners, GPs and students.
BSGE exists not only to serve its members, but also to promote knowledge and understanding of the endoscopic approach to diagnosis and treatment to our patients, the public and those that form healthcare policy so that we can make a difference to women’s health and wellbeing.

President's Update
Miss Rebecca Mallick – BSGE President
It is a real honour to write to you as the new President of the BSGE. Standing on the stage at the ASM and taking on this role was a genuine pinch me moment. The BSGE has shaped so much of my own journey as a clinician, surgeon and educator, and I feel incredibly proud to now help lead a society that means so much to so many of us.
Two years is not a long time and because of that I am determined to hit the ground running. Over the coming months I will keep members updated on the four priorities that will shape my presidency: Grow, Lead, Care and Rise.
