Biographical Information
 Dr. Miklos is an internationally recognized expert in Laparoscopic, Urogynecologic, and Aesthetics Reconstructive Vaginal Surgery. Dr. Miklos is the first fellowship-trained Urogynecologist/Laparoscopic surgeon to receive subspecialty training in Aesthetic Vaginal Reconstructive Surgery. This unique melding of multiple fellowships and training has made Dr. Miklos one of the most sought after surgeons in the world for reconstructive vaginal surgery.
Dr. Miklos is a graduate of Medical University of South Carolina where he received his Master of Science degree in 1985 followed by his Medical degree 1989. He then completed his traditional four year residency in Obstetrics and Gynecology at Hahnemann University Hospital in Philadelphia, PA in 1993. He then completed a two year fellowship in Urogynecology and Reconstructive Vaginal Surgery in Cincinnati, Ohio. In 1995 after the completion of his fellowship he came to Atlanta, Georgia where he was named the Director of Urogynecology and Reconstructive Vaginal Surgery at Atlanta Medical Center. Despite being named an authority in his field that year Dr. Miklos chose to pursue further interests and further develop his understanding of minimally invasive surgery and female pelvic anatomy.
In 1996 Dr. Miklos left Atlanta Medical Center and studied under internationally renowned laparoscopic surgeon William B Saye MD (retired) and world renowned pelvic anatomist/surgeon A Cullen Richardson MD (deceased). Dr. Miklos spent 2 years with this all-star team taking his training to an unprecedented new level among his peers. Dr. Miklos is the first gynecologist to train in both of these two fellowships: Urogynecology and Reconstructive Pelvic Surgery (2 years) and (academically unrecognized) Laparoscopic Reconstructive Surgery (2 years). In 1997 Dr. Miklos developed the Atlanta Center for Laparoscopic Urogynecology.
Dr. Miklos remains the Director of Urogynecology and Reconstructive Pelvic Surgery at Atlanta Center for Laparoscopic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Vaginal Surgery. He is also the Director of Atlanta Medical Research Institute. He continues to pursue excellence in his field by searching world wide for new, innovative and/or unique surgical and non surgical techniques. This commitment to research and development make Atlanta Center for Urogynecology one of the busiest centers for teaching and research and surgery in the country. He was one of the first in the country to perform many of the laparoscopic vaginal surgery procedures including: Sacral Colpopexy, paravaginal, Burch, enterocele, vesicovaginal fistula, sciatic hernia repairs as well as one of the first surgeons to do the TVT sling (1998), TOT sling (2002), laser vaginal rejuvenation (2003) and the new mini incision sling Secure (2006).
The pursuit of a better quality of life for his patients has also lead him to investigate, research, study and then employ surgical techniques for a much desired and requested line of therapy known as Aesthetic Vaginal Surgery aka Vaginal Rejuvenation. Dr. Miklos was the first Urogynecologist in the country to train with Dr. David Matlock (2002) in the discipline of Laser Vaginal Rejuvenation. This surgical training has allowed Dr. Miklos and Moore to round out their discipline of vaginal reconstructive surgery and offer all modalities of therapy for patients with various expectations and requests.
Dr. Miklos has more training in various types of reconstructive vaginal surgery than just about anybody in the world. He has written more than 150 scientific papers, abstracts and book chapters. He and Dr. Moore are co-authors of the new book Vaginal Rejuvenation. He has done surgery in operating rooms all over the world including the Americas, Europe, Asia, and Australia. He has lectured in Argentina, Chile, Russia, France, Germany, Sweden, Italy, Greece, Croatia, Monaco, and Australia. He has taught surgeons from world renowned institutions such as the Cleveland Clinic, Mayo Clinic, Harvard, and Oxford Universities. More than 200 surgeons a year come from all over the world to watch and and learn from Drs. Miklos and Moore. Dr. Miklos and Moore remain some of the busiest reconstructive surgeons in the USA if not the world. They will perform more than 2000 different surgical techniques on more than 500 patients this year (2006) including: 170 laparoscopic sacral colpopexies, 250 minimally invasive slings, and more than 200 vaginal rejuvenation procedures per year. It is this reason that patients from more than 40 states and 15 countries have entrusted their care to Atlanta Urogynecology Associates. Drs. Miklos and Moore training and experience and expertise in the field of reconstructive vaginal surgery is practically unprecedented.
Dr. Miklos is board certified by the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology and is a fellow in good standing of: American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology (FACOG), American College of Surgeons (FACS), International College of Surgeons (FICS) and a member of American Association of Gynecologic Laparoscopists (AAGL), American Urogynecology Society (AUGS), American Urologic Association (AUA) and Society of Gynecologic Surgeons (SGS).
