Prior to joining the faculty at Columbia, she worked at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center for 12 years as Director of the Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Surgery Division. Dr. Hur is fellowship-trained and specializes in benign gynecologic surgery through minimally invasive techniques, including advanced laparoscopy, robotic surgery, and hystereoscopy. She has expertise in the treatment of women with ovarian cysts, uterine septums, pelvic pain, endometriosis, uterine fibroids, and abnormal uterine bleeding.
