Pelvic health plays a bigger role in your daily comfort and confidence than you might expect. At Summit Health, our female pelvic medicine team is here to help when things don't feel quite right. Our specialists focus on urogynecology and reconstructive surgery, offering both surgical and nonsurgical care for a wide range of conditions that affect the pelvic floor.

We take the time to understand your goals, explain your options clearly, and build a plan that fits your life.
Whether you need a simple, in-office solution or advanced reconstructive surgery, you'll find compassionate, expert care every step of the way.
Conditions and procedures
Our female pelvic medicine specialists diagnose and treat conditions that affect the muscles, ligaments, and organs of the pelvic floor. We offer personalized care that ranges from noninvasive therapies to minimally invasive reconstructive surgery.

- Cystocele – a dropped bladder that presses into the vagina
- Rectocele – a rectum that bulges into or through the vaginal wall
- Enterocele – a bulge in the vagina caused by loops of the small bowel
- Vaginal prolapse – when the top of the vagina drops, often after a hysterectomy
- Urge incontinence – sudden, uncontrolled loss of urine, often with frequency, urgency, and nighttime urination
- Stress incontinence – leakage during coughing, sneezing, laughing, exercise, or sexual activity
- Fecal and flatal incontinence – uncontrollable loss of stool or gas

What is causing your pelvic pain?
Most women experience pelvic pain at some point in their lives. A few days of discomfort is often normal, but persistent or severe pain may be a sign that something is seriously wrong.

Frequently Asked Questions
Consider making an appointment if you notice urine or stool leakage, a feeling of pressure or bulging in the pelvic area, frequent or urgent bathroom trips, or discomfort during daily activities. These symptoms are common, treatable, and worth discussing with an expert.
Your first appointment is a conversation. Your provider will review your symptoms and medical history, then perform a gentle physical exam. Together, you'll talk through your concerns and discuss possible next steps. There's no pressure to decide anything right away.
No. Many pelvic health conditions respond well to nonsurgical treatments, such as a pessary fitting or supportive therapies. Surgery is just one option, and we'll only recommend it when it's the best choice for your health and goals.
Urogynecology is a specialty that focuses on the female pelvic floor, the group of muscles and tissues that support the bladder, uterus, and rectum. Our urogynecologists have advanced training in both women's urinary health and pelvic reconstructive surgery.
Pelvic floor issues become more common with age, pregnancy, and childbirth, but that doesn't mean you have to live with them. Effective treatments are available at any stage of life.
