Bladder Problems and Urinary Incontinence cover a range of functional disorders, including overactive bladder (OAB), urgency, frequency, and involuntary urine leakage (incontinence). These conditions are common but require specialiszed diagnosis to distinguish between pelvic floor issues, nerve problems, or structural defects, leading to a highly focused treatment plan.
Management strategies range from non-invasive therapies to highly specialised surgical reconstruction.
Cystoscopy and Urodynamics (tests to assess bladder pressure and function).
Fluid management, pelvic floor physiotherapy, and tailored pharmaceutical regimens.
Sacral Neuromodulation (SNS) or PTNS (Percutaneous Tibial Nerve Stimulation).
Sling procedures or Artificial Urinary Sphincter (AUS) insertion.
Our specialists adopt an investigative approach, ensuring the treatment matches the specific cause of the bladder dysfunction.
We prioritise Urodynamics and Cystoscopy to clearly understand the bladder’s capacity, pressure, and leakage source, avoiding generic treatments.
We co-ordinate closely with specialist pelvic floor physiotherapists and pain management experts where appropriate.
For severe incontinence (e.g., following prostate cancer surgery), our team offers advanced procedures like the Artificial Urinary Sphincter (AUS), providing a high-calibre, functional solution.

No. Most bladder issues are initially managed with behavioral modification, physiotherapy, or medication. Surgery is reserved for cases of severe stress incontinence or when non-surgical treatments fail.
Urodynamics is a diagnostic test that measures how the bladder stores and empties urine. It is crucial for differentiating between OAB and other causes of frequency/urgency.
