Urogynecology and Female Urology
The Urology and Urogynecology Clinic at UW Medical Center  UW Medicine specialists in female urology and urogynecology provide comprehensive care for female pelvic floor disorders, including pelvic organ prolapse, urinary incontinence, urinary frequency and urgency and more.

Our unique combination of urologic and gynecologic expertise allows providers to work together more effectively to treat women. What’s more, our team offers both surgical and nonsurgical care plans, depending on a patient’s needs and desires. We help women like Judy Derby every day. Derby’s reaction to her care? “I was amazed,” she said.

Our comprehensive program offers individualized care and support during evaluation and surgical or nonsurgical management. UW Medicine specialists are proud of the care we provide and value time we devote to each patient in order to understand concerns.

Our health-care providers carefully assess each patient’s health history and medical issues to tailor our care to individuals. It is our goal to make sure patients receive the education they need to make an informed decision about the care plan they choose. After a plan is selected, UW Medicine continues to work with patients so that they feel informed about their care and condition, and that they receive adequate counseling and support during and after any evaluations.
