Our
Subspecialties

Urodynamics

Urodynamic testing or urodynamics is a study that assesses how the bladder and urethra are performing their job of storing and releasing urine.

Overactive Bladder

Overactive bladder (OAB) is a condition where there is a frequent feeling of needing to urinate to a degree that it negatively affects a person's life. The frequent need to urinate may occur during the day, at night, or both.

Stress Urinary incontinence

We are able to treat stress urinary incontinence - involuntary urine leakage with cough, sneeze, exercise with both non surgical and surgical treatments.

Interstitial Cystitis

Interstitial cystitis is chronic pain that affects the bladder and pelvic floor. Procedures may include bladder distention, nerve stimulation or surgery.

Pelvic Organ Prolapse

Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is characterized by descent of pelvic organs from their normal positions. In women, the condition usually occurs when the pelvic floor collapses after gynecological cancer treatment, childbirth or heavy lifting.

Urine Infections

We are able to treat and prevent recurrent urine infections.
