Rutherford OB-GYN Associates now provides Urodynamic Testing to diagnose the cause of urinary incontinence in women.  Urinary Incontinence affects up to 55% of women by the time they reach age 65.  This is a condition that can be controlled or corrected with existing therapies. Rutherford OB-GYN Associates is equipped with advanced Urodynamic diagnostic equipment that provides accurate diagnosis of the patient’s urinary incontinence.  With an accurate diagnosis, the physician can provide the patient with a variety of medical and surgical treatment options to optimize their outcome.

Jeffrey Sabolovic, M.D., a Board Certified OB/GYN, is leading the Urodynamics and Urogynecology service at Rutherford OB-GYN.  Dr. Sabolovic states, "Incontinence should not cause anyone from being as active as they want to be.  There are various methods to treat the problem, and the Urodynamic Testing gives very detailed and accurate diagnostic information used to develop a treatment plan.  I will work with each patient individually to determine the best treatment based on their situation and needs."

Despite the high prevalence of urinary incontinence, most patients are reluctant to seek help.  In fact, only about half consult a physician about their incontinence.  They may be embarrassed that they have a problem, or they may not realize that successful medical and surgical treatments exist for urinary incontinence.  The delay in seeking help may negatively affect lifestyle and keep a woman from doing the things that she would like to do. Patients should consult their physician about their problem, because there are helpful treatments available.

Rutherford OB-GYN Associates has been caring for the women of Rutherford County, Polk County, and surrounding counties for more than twenty-five years.  The five physicians in the group are all Board Certified by the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology.  The physicians provide comprehensive care for women of all ages.  For more information or to schedule an appointment, call 828-287-7383.
