"I was so glad to find Dr Howden to help me with issues with urinary incontinence and other symptoms from my son’s birth that I had put off for way too long. She is a leading expert in the field of Urogynecology, so I could trust I was in the best hands going into the surgery. I also found her incredibly gifted at translating her expertise and experience to an uncanny ability to empathize and help with any related issues that tend to come up in medical situations like vulnerability, PTSD from past experiences, something physical I didn’t understand, or just general anxiety about hospitals and the thought of surgery. She explained everything up front and in detail and helped me understand what to expect. She made the surgery and hospital stay pleasant, at ease, and comfortable. She was honest, forthright, professional, non-judgmental, and kind about any information or issues I had. She stayed invested and interested in the post-surgery healing process and I know she takes all outcomes very ...
seriously. She is also a delightful person to be around! Both myself and my family really appreciated her care. "
