A provider putting hand on patient's shoulder

Pelvic floor disorders (PFDs) such as incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse occur when muscles are weak or injured, either through age, pressure or childbirth. For many, these are embarrassing conditions that seem untreatable, but at Providence Saint John’s Health Center, we believe no one should suffer with PFDs.

Whether you’re affected by irregular bladder, bowel or vaginal function, our expert urologists and urogynecologists provide the most effective treatments for these conditions.

Personalized care

We understand that pelvic floor disorders are uncomfortable and sensitive conditions. This is why our PFD specialists intentionally create a peaceful and sympathetic environment and provide holistic and compassionate care.

At Providence Saint John’s Health Center, you’ll find a full spectrum of services that allow for faster recovery, shorter hospital stays and a reduced risk of injury.
