Can I bring my baby to the visits?
Yes, of course! The office has plenty of space for you and your little one!
Do you take my insurance?

Do I have to pay for parking?
Parking is free at our Inman Park location, but only pay-for options are currently available at our Midtown office. For more parking information and directions, click here and scroll to bottom of page!
Is an internal exam necessary?
An internal pelvic floor examination is not necessary during the first visit. If you are uncomfortable with this approach on the initial visit we can discuss options. An internal examination is the gold standard to assess the pelvic anatomy and to find objective measures that can help aid in our treatment.
If I am on my period can an internal exam be done?
Yes, we treat people during their period all the time! If it makes you uncomfortable, though, please do not hesitate to cancel. Our late cancellation policy is only 24 hours!
If I am pregnant can an internal exam be done?
Yes, if you are pregnant we can do an internal exam. This is a great way to see where your baseline measures are in your pelvic floor tone, strength, and stability.
