April 4, 2023 / San Diego
Genesis Healthcare Partners, an affiliate of Unio Health Partners, has been designated an Axonics Center of Excellence by Axonics Inc. The designation recognizes Stephen Unterberg, MD, for his expertise with Axonics Therapy and sincere commitment to changing the lives of patients suffering from bladder and bowel dysfunction. The Axonics Center of Excellence program recognizes highly trained and experienced physicians (typically urologists, urogynecologists, and colorectal surgeons) and clinical practices that are committed to patient education and providing exemplary care to achieve optimal clinical outcomes and patient satisfaction.
Today, millions of Americans suffer from overactive bladder and fecal incontinence. Axonics Therapy gently stimulates the sacral nerve (sacral neuromodulation), restoring normal communication between the brain and the bladder. Axonics Therapy has been clinically proven to provide rapid and long-lasting relief of symptoms associated with bladder and bowel dysfunction. In a clinical study, 129 patients with urgency incontinence were treated with Axonics Therapy. After one year, 93% of patients were satisfied with their therapy and 89% experienced a 50% or greater reduction in urinary urgency incontinence (UUI) symptoms.
Patients in the San Diego region with chronic and debilitating symptoms related to bladder and bowel dysfunction may seek treatment from experts like Dr. Stephen Unterberg by calling (858) 485-0554 to schedule an appointment at the Rancho Bernardo or Hillcrest clinics.
