Pelvic Health Care

CHI Memorial Pelvic Health Care treats women and men for urinary and fecal incontinence in a private, comfortable environment. The inability to control bladder and/or bowel function is not an inevitable part of the aging process. Millions of Americans suffer with incontinence, but women are twice as likely to suffer as men.
