Gynaecology Surgery

Dr Turner offers the following procedures through his practice:

Stress Incontinence Treatment

Stress incontinence is the leakage of small amounts of urine during physical movements, such as coughing or laughing, suddenly increasing the pressure over your urinary bladder.

Cystoscopy for Incontinence Diagnosis

A cystoscopy examines the inside of the bladder and urethra, the tube that carries urine from the bladder to the outside of the body.

Dr Ross Turner performs the examination using a cystoscope, a long, thin instrument with an eyepiece on one end, a tiny lens, and a light on the other end that is inserted into the bladder.

Dr Ross Turner inserts the cystoscope into the patient’s urethra, and the small lens magnifies the inner lining of the urethra and bladder, allowing Dr Ross Turner to see inside the hollow bladder. Many cystoscopes have extra channels within the sheath to insert other small instruments that can be used to treat or diagnose urinary problems.

Colposcopy Surgery for Cervix Examination

Colposcopy is a procedure in which a special magnifying instrument called a colposcope is used to look into the vagina and into the cervix. The colposcope gives an enlarged view of the outer portion of the cervix.

Colposcopy is done when there are abnormal changes in the cervix cells, as seen on a Pap test. Further, it may be done to assess problems such as genital warts on the cervix, inflammation of the cervix, benign growths or polyps, pain and bleeding.

Vaginal Native Tissue Pelvic Floor Surgery

The pelvic floor comprises pelvic muscles, ligaments, connective tissues, nerves and arteries. It contains organs such as the rectum, uterus, vagina, and bladder. These natural tissues are used to repair defects to replace and support those organs prolapsing.
