About Neurogenic Bladder

Neurogenic bladder is a condition where bladder function is impaired due to damage or disease affecting the nervous system, which controls urination. A urologist manages this condition through a comprehensive approach that includes accurate diagnosis and personalized treatment. The procedure involves a detailed evaluation using urodynamic studies, cystoscopy, and imaging to assess bladder capacity, pressure, and coordination. Treatment strategies range from conservative management with medications and catheterization to advanced surgical interventions like bladder augmentation or sacral neuromodulation. The goal is to restore safe bladder emptying, prevent kidney damage, reduce urinary tract infections, and significantly improve the patient's quality of life by managing incontinence and other distressing symptoms.

PATIENT REVIEW

My dad was admitted to MGM...

My dad was admitted to MGM with a bad fever and we were all worried. Dr. Ramya Shri was the one who really talked to us. She didn't just give medical updates; she explained things in a way we could understand, told us what to watch for at home, and actually listened to our concerns. It made a stressful time much easier to handle.
