Contact UsWhat Is Neurogenic Bladder?
Neurogenic bladder is a disorder that occurs when damage in the nervous system hinders your bladder from functioning properly. Muscles and nerves work together to control when the bladder empties so if you have nerve damage, the muscles may not be able to contract or relax at the right time. There are many injuries and illnesses that can lead to neurogenic bladder, including spinal cord injury, multiple sclerosis, stroke, and spina bifida. Dr. Shenelle Wilson can effectively diagnose and treat neurogenic bladder at Metro Atlanta Urology and Pelvic Health Center. If you have frequent urination, urine leaks, or trouble emptying out your bladder, contact our Kennesaw, GA office to determine if you have a neurogenic bladder.

Metro Atlanta Urology and Pelvic Health Center Reviews
I had my first visit and I am extremely happy with the service I was provided. She educated me and we have a plan of action in place. Everyone was so nice, from the front desk to the doctor. It ended up being an enjoyable experience.
I am beyond grateful for Dr Wilson and her staff. I've been having OAB issues since January and went through 4-5 doctors before my PCP recommended Dr Wilson. She is beyond patient with me. She listens, understands, and sympathizes with me.
