City of Hope Orange County offers the latest medical and technological advances to help you feel your best. Our experts include a recognized, experienced team of gynecology and urogynecology specialists, rehabilitation experts, and a nursing team known for highly compassionate care. Our advanced treatments include:
We’ll examine your nutrition and day-to-day activities, guiding you on adjustments. For some, making dietary changes and ‘retraining’ your bladder with physical therapy may be all that is needed.
Many patients can also be assisted with oral medications, creams or a removable device called a pessary that supports the pelvic floor. There are also in-office procedural treatments to address an overactive bladder.
If you require surgery, we offer minimally invasive and robotic surgeries that minimize scarring and downtime.
