Many of you are aware that in my practice I offer Urogynecology for
Bladder Disorders and Incontinence. I would like to take this
opportunity to present to you an E-Newsletter on:
New Outpatient Procedure for OverActive Bladder and Bladder Pain
Do you urinate more than 8 times a day or wake up at night more than
2 times to urinate?
- Do you have to use a catheter to urinate?
- Do you experience leakage or urine before getting to the
restroom?
- Do you have trouble starting or stopping your urine stream?
- Do you avoid long trips, sporting events, or other activities
that keep you from quick access to a bathroom?
- Do you still experience symptoms after receiving non-surgical
treatments?
- Have you taken medications and found that your symptoms have
not improved much?
If you can answer “yes” to any of these questions, you may be
candidate for InterStim Therapy.
We invite you to call our office for a free consultation visit.
InterStim Therapy is a simple, minimally invasive outpatient
procedure that can provide improvement and/or relief from symptoms
of OverActive Bladder and bladder pain. It is covered by Medicare
and most insurance plans.
Over 30 million people suffer from bladder symptoms related to
OverActive Bladder. While may medications are available for these
problems, there can be associated side effects as well as
significant cost. For those who cannot tolerate drugs or find them
ineffective, the InterStim procedure can eliminate these distressing
problems.
Dr. Birken has been certified for the procedure. To date, all our
patients who have undergone InterStim Therapy are very pleased with
the results.
It is simple, essentially pain free, and requires minimal down time.
If interested, please call our office at 281-893-1246 and we will
arrange for a Medsonic consultant to contact you. Dr. Birken has
been certified for this procedure. To date, all our patients who
have undergone Interstim are very pleased with the results.
