Georgia Urology, the largest urology practice in Georgia, announced that Dr. Jeffrey Proctor has been designated as a Center of Excellence for InterStim™, an implantable device that helps improve bladder and bowel control. This designation recognizes Dr. Proctor’s exemplary use of the InterStim™ system and his commitment to helping patients achieve relief from symptoms associated with overactive bladder, fecal incontinence, and nonobstructive urinary retention.
Physicians included in the InterStim™ Center of Excellence program are highly trained and experienced board-certified physicians that have established a branded care pathway, completed education on the InterStim™ device, have implanted many InterStim™ devices and continue to do that regularly.
“I’m honored to have been selected by Medtronic for this recognition,” says Dr. Proctor. “Many patients suffer from overactive bladders and incontinence, conditions that limit their social, professional, and personal lives. InterStim™ allows Georgia Urology to provide a safe and effective treatment that can be life-changing.”
Dr. Proctor is a board-certified urologist and has recently been named one of Georgia’s leading urologists in Castle Connolly’s prestigious Top Doctors listings. He treats interstitial cystitis, overactive bladder, testosterone deficiency, enlarged prostate, erectile dysfunction, kidney stones, hematuria, and other urologic conditions. Dr. Proctor sees patients at the Cartersville office.
