About Me
Saifuddin Mama, MD, MPH, was the former head of the Division of Urogynecology and Reconstructive Pelvic Surgery and the section for Minimally Invasive Gynecology and Robotics for the Department of Obstetrics and Genecology at Cooper. His specialties at Cooper include urogynecology and reconstructive pelvic surgery, minimally invasive gynecologic surgery, and pediatric and adolescent gynecology.
A graduate of Yale University with a master’s degree in public health, he earned his medical degree at Thomas Jefferson University. Dr. Mama completed his residency in obstetrics and gynecology at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania. Board certified in urogynecology and reconstructive pelvic surgery, he later earned focused practice designation certificates in pediatric and adolescent gynecology and minimally invasive gynecology. He is a fellow of the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology and the American College of Surgeons and is a member of the Society of Gynecologic Surgeons, the American College of Surgeons, the AOA Honor Society, and the Gold Humanism Honor Society.
Prior to joining Cooper, Dr. Mama served as director of Adolescent Gynecology at The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia for nine years and was the OB/GYN director of Undergraduate Medical Education at Cooper Medical School of Rowan University for 11 years.
Dr. Mama is the recipient of numerous teaching and humanism awards, including the APGO Excellence in Teaching Award, Gold Humanism Society Leonard Tow Award, Diane Barton Caring Award, CREOG National Faculty Award for Excellence in Resident Education, Society for Academic Specialists in General Obstetrics and Gynecology Faculty Award, and the Sol Sherry Award for Teaching Excellence. He is an invited speaker and serves on multiple committees nationally.
He has been listed in Philadelphia Magazine's "Top Docs" for obstetrics and gynecology, with recognition in adolescent gynecology and endometriosis since 2005. In addition, South Jersey Magazine has recognized Dr. Mama as a one of the "Top Doctors for Kids" in pediatric and adolescent gynecology since 2009 as well as "Top Doctors – Obstetrics and Gynecology."
Since 2006, Dr. Mama has volunteered in multiple yearly medical missions to Niger, Ghana, Eritrea, Burundi, and Rwanda, and since 2010 to Vietnam teaching repair of obstetric fistula and complex gynecologic surgery, particularly congenital anomalies.
From Dr. Mama:
"In my practice at Cooper University Health Care, I seek to provide individualized care in a respectful and supportive environment. There is an emphasis on listening to the patient and addressing all concerns. Time for patient education and collaborative decision-making with the patient are integral to my practice.
"I provide the full range of gynecologic services and my areas of special interest include female urinary incontinence and prolapse, pelvic reconstruction both for older patients as well as children and teenagers with anatomic Müllerian anomalies. I have special expertise in minimally invasive gynecologic surgery, both laparoscopic and robotic for pelvic pain, adhesive disease, endometriosis, and fibroids. This includes robotic laparoscopic myomectomies, and hysterectomies.
"Preventive medicine is my primary concern given my background in public health, and this involves a focus on healthy behavior and disease prevention."
