A/Prof Michael Cooper

Clinical Associate Professor Michael Cooper, OAM is a Gynaecologist in private practice in Sydney, specialising in the treatment of endometriosis, particularly patients requiring advanced surgical, robotic and assisted reproductive techniques (IVF). He received an Order of Australia Medal in 2018 for services in gynaecology. He is a Visiting Medical Officer at Royal Prince Alfred Hospital and St Vincent’s Private Hospital. He is also accredited with City Fertility, providing a comprehensive range of fertility and genetic services. Beyond his private practice, A/Prof Cooper is actively involved in training specialist surgeons and students at endoscopic surgery workshops. He conducts research and speaks at national and international conferences. He initiated one of Australia's early endoscopic training centres for gynaecologists and is part of the SWEC team that trains specialist surgeons. With over 50 peer-reviewed medical journal publications and book chapters, he is recognised for his expertise as an accredited Advanced Level Endoscopic Surgeon and has been an invited surgeon at many hospitals in Australia and Asia. Previously, A/Prof Cooper was a Board Member of the Australian Gynaecological Endoscopy Society and a member of the Scientific Committee of the International Society for Gynaecological Endoscopy. He served as an advisor to the World Health Organisation on research and training in gynaecological endoscopic surgery and has performed over 6,500 advanced laparoscopic procedures, including excision of endometriosis, hysterectomy, colposuspension, pelvic floor reconstruction, and lymph node dissection. A/Prof Cooper’s multidisciplinary background allows him to provide patient-centred, continuous, holistic and comprehensive care that meets individual patient needs without the necessity of transitioning between specialists. This continuity of care helps patients cope better with the challenges of endometriosis and fertility treatment by reducing stress and eliminating waiting times.

"Evidence-based care tailored to each patient — taking the time to explain options and shared decisions."
