EvergreenHealth Urology & Urogynecology Care offers life-altering treatment for women living with pelvic pain or incontinence.
We use diagnostics, physical therapy, conservative and surgical treatments.
We treat you as an individual and provide you with options designed to achieve your highest level of wellness.
Our Physical Therapists provide conservative treatment options for women who suffer from urinary and bowel dysfunction, pelvic pain, sexual dysfunction including pain with intercourse/dyspareunia, and issues that occur during or after pregnancy.
Pelvic floor disorders such as urinary or bowel incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, uterine prolapse, urinary urgency and frequency, and bladder or pelvic pain can be frustrating and troublesome. Our comprehensive Urostym program provides complete care for weakened pelvic muscles. With a targeted Urostym evaluation, we are able to identify pelvic floor strength or endurance deficits allowing us to prescribe the most effective individualized treatment.
While some physicians shy away from addressing these issues, we welcome women with pelvic pain and are excited to offer them meaningful treatment options using pelvic floor physical therapy. In the minority of cases that are not responsive to physical therapy, pelvic floor Botox injections (in office or using brief anesthesia) are used to treat sexual and pelvic pain. We are confident in our ability to treat pain problems because we understand them and utilize a close collaborative approach with physical therapists which we believe is key to achieving a cure.
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are very common among women of all ages and they can occur for many different reasons. In teenagers, they may result from incomplete bladder emptying. Once young women become sexually active, they can be related to sexual intercourse. After women go through menopause, they can be at increased risk as well. We provide easy access to UTI treatment, and will work with you to decrease risk factors that contribute to such infection and improve your quality of life.
Neurological conditions like spinal cord injury, Parkinson’s and multiple sclerosis (MS) can all affect the bladder. Treatments have greatly improved for this condition and patients are living longer and more functional lives. It is more important than ever for you to receive contemporary and effective urinary tract care. We ensure that you are offered all available treatment options including those traditionally used for women without neurogenic bladder conditions.
With the increasing awareness around the potential for surgical complications related to vaginal mesh implant surgery, our surgeons are dedicated to adhering to best practice guidelines and providing the best outcomes for our patients choosing a surgical care path. We provide appropriate, safe care of patients needing vaginal mesh surgery implant, revision, or removal to treat incontinence, prolapse, and pelvic floor dysfunction.
As if the adolescent years are not hard enough, issues of incontinence, voiding dysfunction, pelvic pain, painful sex and constipation affect some younger girls just as much as adult women. We treat common pelvic complaints that occur in girls aged 10-19 years of age in a safe, comfortable environment.
We provide contemporary incontinence care that covers the entire treatment spectrum beginning with non-surgical options and progressing to surgical management where desired.
Urinary incontinence and the unwanted leakage of urine happens more frequently as you age and can be due to a number of preventable and treatable causes. About half of women over 50 years old have some daily bother with bladder control and the numbers affected only increase as women age. The Elder Continence Program assesses your risks for incontinence and tailors a program that will be acceptable to you and your caregivers.
We identify treatable causes of overactive bladder (frequency, urgency with urine leakage) using holistic approaches. We offer the full spectrum of options should you need medication or procedures.
Pelvic pain and dyspareunia (pain with intercourse) is treatable in many cases. Often the source of this problem is as simple as tight pelvic floor muscles. When you come to us with a complaint of pelvic pain, we’ll give you a careful anatomical evaluation which includes urine cultures and a pelvic ultrasound to make sure there are no issues with reproductive organs.
Pelvic organ prolapse is a weakness in the fibrous tissue (fasciae) as well as ligaments that can lead to bulging of pelvic organs. For the most part, pelvic organ prolapse is not dangerous, but can have a significant impact on your quality of life. Each patient seen for possible prolapse treatment undergoes a thorough evaluation to determine the exact nature of her symptoms and what is bothering her the most.
