Dr. Assia Stepanian grew up in Moscow, the daughter of two illustrious physicians. In fact, much of her training was supervised by her mother, Professor Leila Adamyan, the developer of some of the most advanced techniques and classifications used today in the practice of Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Surgery. Dr. Stepanian received her medical degree at the world-famous I. M. Sechenov Moscow Medical Academy in 1992 and completed her OB-GYN residency at the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences Center for Perinatology, Obstetrics, and Gynecology in 1994. In her desire to share the advanced techniques she mastered, she moved to the United States and completed an OB-GYN residency at East Carolina University’s Brody School of Medicine in 2005. Wishing to expand her knowledge, she completed the American Association of Gynecologic Laparoscopists (AAGL)/SRS fellowship in Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Surgery from 2005 to 2007 under the mentorship of Dr. Thomas Lyons, pioneer of Laparoscopic Supracervical Hysterectomy and other techniques. Dr. Stepanian received additional training in urogynecology and pelvic floor reconstruction with Drs. John Miklos and Rob Moore, innovators in Pelvic Floor Reconstructive Procedures, from 2005 through 2007. She significantly benefited from her courses with Professor Arnaud Wattiez in the laparoscopic treatment of Endometriosis which took place in Strasbourg France. Through her work with SurgeryU, both as a founder and mentor, she has helped to educate over 11,000 doctors from around the world. She also teaches at the meetings, writes, mentors and enjoys working with her colleagues in Atlanta as well as internationally.
