How can we help

Do you have any of these symptoms?

  1. Do you wake up to go to the bathroom?
  2. Do you leak urine unexpectedly?
  3. Does urine loss occur during coughing, sneezing, laughing, bending or lifting?
  4. Do you occasionally have leakage of stool while passing gas?

If you answered yes to ANY of these questions, you may have urinary or bowel incontinence.

Pelvic Floor disorders are common in men and women, but many times the person is reluctant to seek medical attention due to embarrassment, the feeling that nothing can be done or that it is a normal part of life. At the Center for Pelvic Wellness at Griffin Hospital, we want you to know you are not alone and you do not have to live with these problems. We are here to help.

Get your life back. Make the call.

You can get your life back and we can help. Learn more or schedule a personal consultation. Call The Center for Pelvic Wellness at (203) 732-2651.
