The group also has an extensive program in male incontinence, with expertise in the treatment of post-prostatectomy incontinence. The NYU Urology facilities are also fully equipped to handle patients with neurological problems who are not ambulatory or who require assistance such as biofeedback, injection therapy, artificial urinary sphincters or male slings. In addition to standard treatments, we are committed to incorporating the latest developments in medical research to improve the quality of life of women and men who suffer from this intrusive condition.

Highly Skilled at Treating All Types of Bladder Dysfunction and Incontinence

Bladder dysfunction, which affects millions of men and women, can have a major impact on quality of life. The physicians at NYU Urology Associates are highly skilled at treating all types of bladder dysfunction and incontinence. We specialize in providing individualized care, and understand the sensitivity and time required to successfully treat these conditions. Our outpatient facilities are also fully equipped for the convenience of individuals who require assistance.

Full Spectrum of Management Options for Incontinence

Whether incontinence is caused by an overactive bladder or a poorly functioning urethra, our doctors offer a full spectrum of management options including behavioral therapy programs, medications, botulinum toxin injections, and urethral bulking agents, as well as surgical treatments for incontinence. For patients with neurological conditions such as multiple sclerosis or spinal cord injury, our caring and uniquely qualified physicians offer effective conservative therapies, medications, botulinum toxin injections, implantable nerve stimulators, and urinary tract reconstruction.

Extensive Program for Male Incontinence

We also offer an extensive program for male incontinence. Our physicians have particular expertise in the treatment of PPI (post-prostatectomy incontinence). This potentially devastating condition can be treated with a variety of methods, including male slings and artificial urinary sphincters. As always, our goal is to find the most effective course of treatment for each patient.

New Surgical Techniques and Treatments for Incontinence

At NYU Urology Associates, we are also committed to incorporating the latest developments in medical research to improve the quality of life for women and men who suffer from incontinence. Our physicians are world-renowned for pioneering new surgical techniques and treatments to cure this obtrusive condition, and they will continue to be at the forefront in developing innovative therapies for bladder dysfunction.
