What is it? And why should it matter to you?
Did you know that 23-35% of all women will experience urinary incontinence in their lifetime? Or that 1 in 11 women are at risk of pelvic organ prolapse? If you’re suffering from these conditions, you’ll want to consult with an experienced urogynecologist.
Urogynecology is a subspecialty within the field of Obstetrics and Gynecology that is dedicated to the treatment of women with pelvic floor disorders like:
- Prolapse (bulging or falling) of the vagina, bladder and/or the uterus
- Urinary incontinence
- Painful bladder conditions
- Fecal incontinence, fecal urgency & constipation
Rocky Mountain Women’s Health Center is proud to offer this new specialty to their patients and welcome Dr. Maria Hernandez to their practice.
Dr. Maria Hernandez graduated from medical school at the University of Iowa and served her residency at Phoenix Integrated Residency in Obstetrics and Gynecology. In June 2010 she completed a Urogynecology fellowship from the Greater Baltimore Medical Center/John Hopkins University. Se habla Espanol.
