Robert Hammer
MD, FACOG

Director, Mountain States Urogynecology West
Exempla Lutheran Medical Center

Dr. Hammer is dedicated to creating a urogynecology practice environment in which women feel comfortable in addressing their symptoms.  The field of urogynecology remains in the forefront in research and in teaching of advanced diagnostic testing and advanced gynecologic and minimally invasive surgery.  With compassion and advanced training, Dr. Hammer is committed to offering women cutting edge diagnostic testing and proven treatment options--both non-surgical and surgical--empowering women with education to make individualized decisions and focusing on improving quality of life when women are limited by their urogynecologic and gynecologic conditions. Dr. Hammer moved to Colorado in 2008 to be nearer the mountains where he enjoys hiking, biking, rafting and spending time with his wife Francie and dog Wrigley.  He also likes to paint, read, and play guitar.
