Urogynecology at Willowbrook

Gynecology

Pelvic floor disorders such as urinary incontinence and overactive bladder are extremely common, and can affect women of all ages. At Houston Methodist Willowbrook, we understand how disruptive these disorders can be to your quality of life. The good news is you don’t have to tolerate incontinence, organ displacement or any other common, but little-discussed gynecological problem. Our talented urogynecologists can help — often without the need for surgery.


Helping You Find Relief for Gynecologic Problems

Our experienced urogynecologists work closely with pelvic floor physical therapists to help you improve bladder and bowel control and decrease pelvic pain. 

At Houston Methodist Willowbrook, we offer:
  • A variety of treatment options, including physical therapy, to help control frequent urges to urinate, extra trips to the bathroom and loss of urine
  • State-of-the-art equipment, including 3-D ultrasound and urodynamic testing to assess how the bladder and urethra store and release urine
  • The comfort and convenience of having all your urogynecologic needs taken care of at one location. If a minimally invasive procedure is needed to treat your condition, we often can perform it in our office
