NYPL Wellness Series: Pelvic Organ Prolapse
REGISTRATION REQUIRED
Virtual Event
Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) happens when one or more pelvic organs drop from their normal position. About half of all women who have a mild pelvic organ prolapse also leak urine sometimes.
With more than 50% of women developing POP in their lifetime, this is not a topic to be missed. Join us for an engaging discussion to learn more about POP, what it might mean if you have it, what to do about it and risk factors associated with POP during the Weill Cornell Medicine Wellness Series in partnership with the Harry Belafonte 115th Street Library.
Unwanaobong Nseyo, M.D., MPH, is an Assistant Professor of Urology at Weill Cornell Medicine.
Dr. Nseyo is a urologist with a clinical focus on female reconstructive urology, including prolapse and urinary incontinence, and complex voiding dysfunction, especially in a neurogenic bladder population. She also has expertise in minimally invasive and robotic techniques for complex reconstruction. Given the relationship between urinary issues and age, Dr. Nseyo's clinical practice is dedicated to improving the quality of life for older patients with urinary complaints.
Dr. Nseyo’s clinical practice is complemented by a robust research portfolio in health services and clinical research around issues of quality and access to care among under-served patient populations with benign urologic disease. She has been recognized by the American Urological Association for her commitment to research early in her career through her selection for AUA’s Early Career Investigator’s Workshop and Urology Scientific Mentoring and Research Training cohort.
Dr. Nseyo believes women’s health is advocacy and is steadfast in her commitment to improve access to care and treatment for the pelvic health concerns of her patients.
