Specialties: Female Pelvic Medicine and Reconstruction

Gender: Female

Biography: As a nurse practitioner in urogynecology, I help patients with pelvic organ prolapse, urinary incontinence, fecal incontinence, and pelvic floor dysfunction. Most of the conditions related to pelvic floor dysfunction can be very embarrassing and difficult for patients to discuss. My goals are to establish a trusting rapport with my patients where they feel comfortable discussing their concerns, and to provide my patients with education on their conditions and all the treatment options that are available.
