During your first appointment at Urocare Services, Dr. Novogrodsky will take your full medical history and ask about your symptoms. He’ll then perform a physical exam and order any follow-up lab work.
After diagnosing your medical issue, Dr. Novogrodsky will take a conservative treatment approach first to see how you respond. He’ll then graduate to more progressive therapies if your condition doesn’t improve.
Conservative treatments often include behavior modification, such as fluid intake, pelvic floor strengthening, and physical therapy. He will also consider medication.
If your condition doesn’t improve, Dr. Novogrodsky may use techniques like Botox® injections to improve bladder control, neuromodulation to stimulate the nerve connecting the bladder and the brain, and urodynamics to study bladder function. Some severe or treatment-resistant conditions may require surgery to correct the problem.
