Childbirth and aging can adversely affect the supporting tissues of the reproductive organs, which may lead to pelvic or lower back discomfort and decreased bladder control.
I have been caring for women for the past 26 years, including an additional three year Urogynecology Fellowship which focused on the evaluation and treatment options for bladder and pelvic floor dysfunction. This training also focused on modifying or improving reconstructive surgical techniques utilized for pelvic organ prolapse repair and urinary incontinence.
Primary care physicians and Gynecologists entrust their patient's care to Dr. Lance Betson and his staff at Newport Urogynecology because of their compassion and expertise for women with prolapse and bladder disorders — an area that is finally receiving the specialized attention it deserves.
