We accept referrals for patients experiencing antepartum or postpartum prior obstetric anal sphincter injury (with 3rd or 4th degree tears), with or without anal symptoms, and those experiencing low rectovaginal fistulas from obstetrical trauma.
We only accept referrals for patients who are pre-registered to deliver at or have previously delivered at BC Women’s Hospital.
We are unable to accommodate patients with pelvic organ prolapse, urinary incontinence, overactive bladder, and/or rectovaginal fistula from inflammatory bowel disease.
