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.

The most lovely and caring staff. Dr. Wilson was wonderful and throughout answering questions and walking me through all the steps for my case. I left feeling very happy and could not recommend this practice enough!
Dr. Wilson really cares and is compassionate. I highly recommend her and her staff!
It took me 72 years & 11 surgeries to FINALLY find a GREAT DOCTOR & SURGEON!! I thought my guts were falling out! She fit me in as a new patient immediately with an emergency situation. She was thorough, gentle, concerning & answered all my questions so that I understood. She’s warm, friendly & caring. Like a friend! She gave me options . I made my decision. I needed a Pelvic Prolapse. She returns my texts quickly!!!! Never had a Dr do that! She has a wonderful staff… Isabella & Brian. Just a wonderful experience during a scary time. Thank You isn’t enough❤️
Dr. Wilson is awesome! Very knowledgeable, thorough and kind! Kudos to her team!
Dr. Wilson is unlike any provider I have had. With her background as both a urologist and urogynecologist, I realized I was missing a lot of things during my annual gynecology appointment that Dr. Wilson is able to address with her specialization and experience. I feel amazing and have been able to wean off my SSRI with targeted bioidentical hormone therapy under Dr. W’a care. I am so grateful, thank you for helping me live my best life!
