Prestige Medical Group highlights Dr. Lamia Gabal’s dual urology certification

Prestige Medical Group says founder Dr. Lamia Gabal holds rare certification in both urology and female pelvic medicine and reconstructive surgery, expanding specialized care for women in Orange County. The practice says the combination helps treat pelvic floor disorders, urinary incontinence and related conditions without sending patients elsewhere.

Why it matters: - Prestige Medical Group says Dr. Lamia Gabal’s dual certification gives Orange County patients access to a narrow subspecialty focused on women’s pelvic floor and urinary conditions. - The certification matters because pelvic floor disorders can require both surgical and non-surgical care that is not always available in general urology settings. - The practice says the setup can reduce the need for referrals and keep more complex care under one roof.

What happened: - Prestige Medical Group is highlighting the advanced women’s pelvic health services offered by founder and medical director Dr. Lamia Gabal. - Dr. Gabal holds board certification in Urology from the American Board of Urology and subspecialty certification in Female Pelvic Medicine and Reconstructive Surgery. - The practice serves Orange County from offices in Tustin and Santa Ana, California. - Dr. Gabal graduated from the University of California San Diego School of Medicine and completed her General Surgery internship and Urology residency at UCSD Medical Center. - Dr. Gabal has more than 25 years of clinical experience. - The Orange County Medical Association has named Dr. Gabal a Top Doctor for 17 consecutive years.

The details: - Female Pelvic Medicine and Reconstructive Surgery focuses on pelvic floor disorders, urinary incontinence and other urologic conditions unique to women, including pelvic organ prolapse. - Dr. Gabal treats pelvic organ prolapse, urinary incontinence and genitourinary syndrome of menopause. - Her care includes both surgical and non-surgical approaches. - Dr. Gabal performs robotic-assisted procedures for pelvic prolapse. - The practice says robotic surgery can offer a minimally invasive alternative to traditional open surgery, with the goal of shorter recovery and less post-operative discomfort. - Dr. Gabal serves as principal investigator for multiple clinical trials in urology, female pelvic medicine, sexual health and regenerative medicine. - Dr. Gabal also serves on the board of a physician advocacy organization representing small, independently owned medical practices. - Prestige Medical Group added Dr. Hari Sawkar in 2025. - Dr. Sawkar is a board-certified urologic surgeon trained at Northwestern University and USC. - Dr. Gabal and Dr. Sawkar now offer more than 20 surgical procedures across the range of urologic care available at PMG. - Prestige Medical Group says its services include treatment for pelvic floor disorders, urinary incontinence, kidney stones, prostate conditions and other urologic concerns. - The practice says care is delivered with an emphasis on personalized, evidence-based treatment.

Between the lines: - The announcement positions PMG as a local destination for a niche women’s urology subspecialty that remains uncommon among practicing urologists. - Pairing Dr. Gabal’s subspecialty with Dr. Sawkar’s surgical background appears designed to widen the practice’s procedure mix and keep more patients in-network within the group. - The emphasis on trials and advocacy suggests Dr. Gabal is also building credibility beyond routine clinical care.

What's next: - PMG is likely to continue using Dr. Gabal’s certification and Dr. Sawkar’s addition to broaden its surgical and women’s pelvic health offerings. - The practice is also likely to keep pointing patients to its Tustin and Santa Ana offices as its Orange County footprint. - More information is available through Prestige Medical Group’s social channels, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, TikTok and X.

The bottom line: - PMG is leaning on Dr. Lamia Gabal’s rare dual certification to stand out in women’s pelvic health and offer more complex urologic care locally.
