Neurogenic Lower Urinary Tract Dysfunction (Bladder Symptoms from a Neurologic Condition)
Neurogenic Lower Urinary Tract Dysfunction, or bladder symptoms caused by a neurological condition (like stroke or MS), occurs when nerve damage affects how your bladder functions. This can lead to issues such as frequent urination, urgency, leakage, or difficulty emptying. Management focuses on lifestyle adjustments and medical strategies to improve bladder control and overall well-being.

I am a urologist specializing in the medical, procedural, and surgical management of urinary symptoms in men and women including urinary leakage and difficulty urinating, female urethral disorders, pelvic organ prolapse, and bladder dysfunction caused by a neurologic condition, injury, or cancer treatment.
The conditions I treat can have a profound impact on quality of life and may lead to physical and emotional discomfort and social isolation. I recognize my patients’ need for approachable, comforting, and compassionate care that will allow them to navigate their symptoms and treatment options. Together, we develop an individualized diagnostic and treatment plan that focuses on understanding why symptoms are present and how we can best manage them.
