Meet Dr. Shoemaker
Dr. Edward Shoemaker, MD is an obstetrician gynecologist in Corpus Christi, TX and has over 46 years of experience in the medical field.
Dr. E Stanton Shoemaker, is considered to be one of the leading pelvic floor reconstructive and incontinence experts in America, and is highly sought after to educate other gynecologic surgeons in his techniques.
After attending medical school at the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston – and then completing a four-year residency program in Obstetrics and Gynecology at Southwestern Medical School in Dallas – Dr. Shoemaker joined Dr. Bernhardt Rothschild and Dr. James L. Barnard, Jr. in Corpus Christi, Texas to form the first group Obstetrics and Gynecology practice in South Texas.
As his practice grew during the 1980′s, Dr. Shoemaker became a very skilled laparoscopic surgeon. He realized that sophisticated, operative laparoscopy could lead to quicker recovery for his patients, with much less pain. He also concluded that with minimally invasive procedures, not only was the patient’s hospital stay reduced, but they able to return to their normal activities within days, instead of weeks.
