    Great Source for Urinary Incontinence

    As a mother and nurse finding the time and strength to admit my leakage problem to my doctor after 14 years was hard to do.
    After reading this book which was given to me by Dr. Tony Pinson, who I was referred to for my incontinence, the knowledge and seeing first hand what can be done to ease and/or erase my symptoms, has given me hope that I am not the only one suffering.
    This book is excellent in explaining the types, treatment and follow-up for treating incontinence.
    Dr. Tony Pinson is now my urologist, he is located in Jackson, MI, for women and men who have incontinence issues...look him up.
