I had a past hysterectomy that resulted in a Vesicovaginal Fistula, resulting in severe urinary leakage. To further complicate matters, the Fistula was right next to my Ureter. Dr Jeppson brought in a Urologist (Dr Patel) to be onShow more stand by, in the case the Ureter needed to be transplanted, & Dr Jeppson performed my fistula repair surgery. I did not end up needing a ureter transplant & my surgery was without complications. I am so happy to have my bladder control back. Thank You Dr Jeppson!
Dr Jeppson made me feel comfortable, explained my options, very personable, professional, easy to understand.

He then graduated from Saint Louis University School of Medicine in Saint Louis, Missouri, followed by residency in Obstetrics and Gynecology at the Cleveland Clinic and Case Western Reserve University MetroHealth Medical Center in Cleveland, Ohio. Following residency, he completed three additional years of fellowship training to acquire advanced expertise in Female Pelvic Medicine and Reconstructive Pelvic Surgery, colloquially called Urogynecology, at the Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island.
Dr. Jeppson is board-certified by the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology, in both Obstetrics and Gynecology and sub-specialty certified in Female Pelvic Medicine and Reconstructive Pelvic Surgery (FPRMS). In addition, he is a fellow of the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology and a fellow of the American College of Surgeons. He worked at University of New Mexico from 2013 – 2022, serving as the Director of the Division of Urogynecology from 2016 – 2022.
Dr. Jeppson has been very involved in several national and international organizations and has published over 50 research articles in prestigious scientific journals on the treatment of pelvic floor disorders. Many of these research articles were selected as required reading for physicians practicing in the US to maintain board certification. Dr. Jeppson is a board examiner for the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology which is the exam for practicing gynecologists in the US to become board certified, as well as a board examiner for FPMRS board certification. Both are markers of excellence and demonstrate commitment to the highest and most current standards of care.
Dr. Jeppson is currently an associate professor with dual appointment at the University of Arizona College of Medicine-Phoenix, and the University of New Mexico where he teaches fellows, residents, and medical students. He has planned several national meetings and workshops to teach surgical skills to providers, with attendees from throughout North America and the world. Dr. Jeppson was recently awarded a multimillion-dollar grant to directly compare treatment options for the treatment of Urgency Urinary Incontinence.

For the past 10 years, Dr. Jeppson has traveled to Rwanda as part of a surgical team to help treat women suffering from pelvic fistula as a result of complications from childbirth. In this role, he provides direct patient care to women that would not otherwise have access to treatment, thereby restoring quality of life and allowing them to reintegrate into society. While in Rwanda, he also teaches students, residents, and doctors on the best practices to treat fistula, which generally requires complex surgical planning.

He was Recognized as one of Albuquerque’s “Top Doctors” in Albuquerque The Magazine in 2022, 2020, 2019, 2017, and 2015.

Dr Jeppson made me feel comfortable, explained my options, very personable, professional, easy to understand.
From start to finish, I felt the level of service was very professional. I was listened to, not rushed. The lobby area was peaceful and comfortable. It had been some time since I had this type of exam but the bit of apprehension I felt was rapidly replaced by comfort. Explanatons as to what would occur during my visit were offered first by the intake person and again by Dr Jeppson. His manner is quiet but his thoroughness was appreciated. Thank you.
