Dr. Hoyte is a fellowship trained, Board Certified specialist in Female Pelvic Medicine and Reconstructive Surgery (FPMRS).  He is Managing Partner at The Pelvic Floor Institute in Tampa and Sarasota

He treats women with prolapse, bladder and bowel incontinence, overactive bladder, childbirth related pelvic floor injury, and complications related to vaginal mesh surgeries. He offers a wide range of successful surgical and nonsurgical therapies to treat women with these problems. His focus is on delivering excellent outcomes and an outstanding patient experience.

Dr. Hoyte specializes in advanced robotic and vaginal surgery to correct vaginal prolapse, and is one of the leading robotic prolapse surgeons in the world. He has trained over 60 surgeons in the use of the Da Vinci robotic Surgical system.

Dr. Hoyte has a passion for teaching women and their families about diagnosis and treatment options for urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse. In addition to speaking engagements, he has written a book  – “prolapse repair”, designed specifically to educate women about safe treatment options for prolapse.

He invents and commercializes of medically related intellectual property; he has received patents on devices including bladder drainage aids, instruments for  simplifying prolapse surgery, and a device for preventing tissue spread during laparoscopy.

Dr. Hoyte spent a decade designing and building advanced computer circuits, and tools for automating their design and production. This prepared him for a research career in MRI based 3D pelvic reconstruction, where he published a large number of peer-reviewed manuscripts, including the first to demonstrate differences in 3D pelvic floor structure between normal women, and those with prolapse and urinary incontinence. His current research is geared to developing imaging markers to predict the success of different surgical approaches to correct pelvic organ prolapse.
