Stephanie Gleicher MD, MPH is a urologist with a sub-specialty focus in Urogynecology and Reconstructive Pelvic Surgery (URPS). Her main clinical interests include voiding dysfunction, incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, pelvic floor dysfunction, recurrent urinary tract infections, urethral reconstruction, and neuro-urology. Often the psychological, functional, and social impact of these conditions is grossly underestimated, and patients suffer for too long before receiving the care that they deserve. Dr. Gleicher strives to partner with patients to help them meet their care goals and improve their overall quality of life.
After completion of residency at SUNY Upstate Medical University, she completed fellowship at Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville TN, with a specialization in neuro-urology, voiding dysfunction, incontinence, prolapse, and complex lower urinary tract reconstruction. She also holds a master s in public health from UMDNJ-Rutgers University, and has a strong interest in patient education and epidemiologic trends. She has previously studied/published on topics ranging from overactive bladder, incontinence, recurrent urinary tract infections, and bladder augmentation, among other urologic conditions.
