The InterStim Center of Excellence, awarded by Medtronic, recognizes physicians who demonstrate exemplary use of the InterStim system and a commitment to patient care for those suffering from symptoms associated with overactive bladder, accidental bowel leakage and urinary incontinence.

• Commitment to patient care for those suffering from symptoms associated with overactive bladder and fecal incontinence who have not received relief with other conservative treatments.
• Established Care Pathway that outlines treatment
• Board certified physician in urology
