Programs & Services


Calgary Pelvic Floor Clinic

A multidisciplinary program that offers services and options for women with pelvic floor issues, including pelvic organ prolapse, incontinence, and bladder dysfunction.

Services offered include the following:

  • Education - New patients are required to view the 5 basic modules online. Additional supplementary modules and handouts are available.
  • Conservative / Behavioral Therapy - Following a general assessment, conservative and behavioural therapies (diet, activities, exercise, etc.) are discussed and considered. These require patient involvement and commitment to modification of activities and lifestyle.
  • Pessary Fitting - Clinic nurses assess and fit women for vaginal pessaries, devices that assist with prolapse and incontinence issues.
  • Medical Intervention - When appropriate, medications may be prescribed that reduce symptoms in patients.
  • Surgical Intervention The clinic urogynecologists will provide surgical interventions for women with prolapse and stress incontinence issues.
  • Physiotherapy - Group sessions and consultations available through internal referral only. Direct referrals for physiotherapy are NOT accepted.
  • Urodynamic Testing & Cystoscopy – These specialized tests are done to provide diagnostic information, when required.

Multidisciplinary team delivers patient-centered care, with an emphasis on patient engagement and collaborative care. As this is a tertiary care specialty clinic, patients can expect to be discharged back to their referring provider.
