Urinary Incontinence

INCONTINENCE CARE

AT HER MD
SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT

Incontinence is fairly common among women, yet we don’t talk about it.

At HerMD we want to end the shame stigma around women’s healthcare topics- and that starts by normalizing the conversation around issues like incontinence. Pee when you sneeze? Rushing to the bathroom because you might not make it? You may have incontinence, but guess what? Other women are experiencing it too and you don’t have to just live with it.

    I had the best dermaplane and hydro facial with Skylar / I drove in from Indianapolis and had some extra free time when I was in town for work. That evening I went out with a college friend that night and everyone commented on my glowing skin and definitely not “ my age “! Skylar is gentle knowledgeable and sweet! Definitely recommend !

    I had my very first surgical procedure recently at HerMD and they made the experience so pleasant for me. Dr. White is fantastic and so friendly. My nurse made me so comfortable and was so sweet. And, Ann, the anesthesiologist was absolutely lovely. She made me feel so comfortable when the anesthesia was the part I was most nervous about.

    Absolutely love HerMD. I’ve been seeing Brianna for over 3 years for Botox treatments and just recently for filler; she is absolutely wonderful, professional, and welcoming. She always listens to my concerns and offers her suggestions while ensuring I feel comfortable. I always leave feeling like the best version of myself. Highly recommend seeing her whether you’re a seasoned injectable patient or a first-timer.

    Dr. Amberly is a super personable, kind and caring doctor. She really invests in her patients. The staff is always helpful and respectful. The person who is in charge of the online chats gets back to you much more quickly than any MyChart response. I would recommend HerMD to anyone and everyone, and I have!

    I met with NP Jackie Martin. I did my research and she had the experience I was seeking in a specialist. I drove from Columbus to meet with her in person. The office is very pretty and the front desk was very pleasant. Jackie took her time meeting with me. Explained her background and then discussed my symptoms and suggested a course of action. All while asking if I had questions along the way. I felt heard and that meant a lot. Highly recommend!
