Ajay K. Singla, M.D., Associate Professor & Chief of Female Urology & Voiding Dysfunction, Department of Urology

Special Interests:

My clinical interests are in the field of voiding dysfunction and urinary incontinence in men and women.  The voiding dysfunction also encompasses the neurogenic bladder from a number of diseases including diabetes, Parkinson's, multiple sclerosis after major pelvis surgery, as well as from trauma.   Working closely with an urogynecology colleague, the problem of vaginal prolapse and urinary incontinence are managed comprehensively.   Using a multi-disciplinary approach, the problem of fecal incontinence is also addressed at the same time.  Here at the Detroit  Medical Center, we provide comprehensive bladder pressure testing and a full time multi-disciplinary approach to urinary and fecal incontinence.
