Once a diagnosis is determined by your provider, our team collaborates with a patient in developing a personalized treatment plan.

Why Many Women Hold Back their Laughter
Women suffering from urinary stress incontinence (USI), a pelvic floor disorder, often say “Don’t Make me Laugh!” for fear they’ll lose bladder control mid-giggle. They’re also cautious when they sneeze, cough or jump. Pelvic floor disorders such as USI are more common than you think.
