I had the mid urethral sling surgery in May and at first I was very hesitant to have the surgery, however, I am very pleased with the final results. Dr. Pezzella was wonderful. She explained the procedure during my initial office visit as well as prior to going into surgery which put me at ease. Her credentials and professionalism were important qualities I was searching for and she did not disappoint. I am finally free to enjoy a more active and joyful lifestyle!. I feel wonderful. Thank you Dr. Pezzella.
After having stress incontinence for over a year, I finally went to Dr. Pezzella. After 3 visits & some testing to correctly identify my problem, I opted to have the sling procedure. It is the absolute best thing I have ever had done. I have had no pain or after effects. I can now cough and sneeze to my hearts content without fear of being embarrassed! I would recommend this to anyone who suffers from incontinence!
Dr. Pezzella correctly diagnosed a problem I have had for years that three other doctors missed - a twist in my urethra not allowing me to evacuate my bladder. The most I could release would be about a 1/4 cup in a sitting. With one quick examination she found several additional issues causing me problems over the years. She is skillful, knowledgeable, gentle and caring. Her confidence in her decision gave me the understanding I needed to have a hysterectomy and abominable reconstructive surgery within a few weeks of my visit to her. For years I suffered unnecessarily. Although many doctors tried to find the causes of my issues, none knew immediately upon the first examination. I encourage all women to go first to Dr. Pezzella and get her expert opinion. You will find her amazing!
The surgery was successful & I don’t have to get up at night to urinate often
I was very depress and wasn’t very social. Having the surgery has given me my life back and l hope anyone going through this situation get the help they need and deserve.
Dr. Pezzella has amazing skills. My anterior cystocele repair went better than I thought possible. After surgery pain was tolerable with Tylenol and virtually gone two days post surgery. Recovery was ahead of schedule. Having said that, I did follow post op orders to the tee, drank much water at all times, ate healthy, used stool softener, mild exercise, no lifting or driving.

Very professional, skilled doctor and staff. I would highly recommend Southern Urogynecology.
I was very hesitant to have any surgery done. Tried one rx which worked okay. Tried a second rx which worked even better. After a year, and realizing I still had urinary issues, I opted for the surgery. Still leary, I went through with it. Now, I'm very happy to have this done, especially at this age, (54) rather than fighting the problem for the next 20+ years. Thank you.
I had full confidence in the abilities of my doctor and I am pleased with the results of the surgery. I haven’t had any pain, and I haven’t taken any pain medication. Other than abdominal bruising, there was no other complaints. The office personnel are very nice and seem to be willing and able to give assurance of my care.
I had 3 areas of concern around my female organs. Rectocele, Cystocele and Uterine Prolapse. I was stage 3, being the most severe, in two of those areas and stage 4 of the other. Dr. Pazella ordered a complete hysterectomy and Altis sling for my bladder. I was miserable before the surgery with incontinence, having to assist myself to use the restroom and pain in my back. After surgery, today, I am well on the mend. Dr Pazella said everything is healing wonderfully. GREAT JOB' I would definitely recommend Dr. Pazella.
very pleased with my surgery outcome.

I have been pleased with my experience at Southern Urogynecology. The staff has been pleasant and professional. After several attempts to solve my medical problem a surgery was scheduled which Dr Pazella performed last week, and I couldn’t be happier with the results.

I’m very happy with my whole process with Southern Urogynecology. I wish I had this procedure done years ago. Dr. Pezzella and staff are terrific,
Love the empathy and expertise of Dr Pazella. I was delighted with the diagnosis that we would try other options rather than surgery. I highly recommmend this doctor and love the facts that she is a woman who understands things from a woman’s perspective.

The staff and Dr. was amazing made me feel comfortable and at ease . They always let you know everything they were doing and explained it fully. I am very pleased that I came here and I have already recommended Dr. Pezzela to my friends.
I have had a great experience, from scheduling to post op,! Everyone has been extremely friendly and understanding
Very good experience with Dr Pezzella- informative- kept me abreast of everything that was going on
Was so glad I made the decision to go ahead with this surgery. I had no pain from the surgery at all, and feel so much better now.
Doctor P and her staff were wonderful! They made the process as simple and almost (!) painless as possible.

Wonderful experience.. made a world of difference for my overall health benefits! Dr. Pezzella and all the staff were amazing.
Dr Pezzella spent time, never rushing, and answering all my concerns. This is my second time with this particular operation, the first having been performed by a local gyn/ob in whom I have the utmost respect. It was through his recommendation that I came here. He was so right. The professionalism and expertise of a specialist was needed. My own father, now deceased, was an on/gyn. He always said to get the best possible help whenever you can. I did. Thanks.
Always leave here feeling better and amazed at what Dr. Pezzella is capable of doing for me.

When your uterus is prolapsed it is a scary situation. This can happen to even young women. The help I received at the this office was amazing. Thirteen months and still doing great.
As a 66 year old lady my regret is that I did not do my bladder procedure sooner. My quality of life has greatly increased. I am able to do activities without worrying about accidents. Dr. Pezzella is wonderful. She is very knowledgeable, understanding and patient. The outpayient center was also very well organized. Great experience and highly recommended.
This is a TOP NOTCH office!!! The entire office is squeaky clean. The staff is super friendly and helpful. Dr. Pezzella truly believes in helping her patients. My mom had been suffering with horrible bladder pain. We had tried several other routes to no avail. My 56 yr old mother was discouraged and at her wits end, unable to sit down at Thanksgiving dinner due to the severe pain. I googled every possible answer the state of SC had to offer. Dr. Pezzella to the rescue!!! After a minor outpatient surgery my mom is 90% better. Her ability to live her life as a 56 yr old woman has returned. My mom can bend over, reach over her head, ride comfortably in a car, cut grass, and play basketball with her grandson without being in severe pain. There are NO words to express the graditude we have for Dr. Pezzella and her entire crew!!! Once again, THANK YOU for everything you do!!!
Dr Pezzella did a wonderful job surgically correcting my prolapsed bladder. So much easier than I anticipated. Very little discomfort for a few days only. I would have this repair again if ever needed with no qualms. I very much trust Dr Pezzella!

I am a new person. My bladder is fixed....Great job. I would recommend this office to anyone with bladder issues. Thanks a million.
Dr Pezzella was amazing. She helped to diagnose and treat me for issues I have been having for almost a year. Several other doctors hadn't been able to help me. She is kind and caring, and I think the world of her.
Dr. Pezzella and staff are extremely nice and make you feel at ease. My bladder sling procedure was quick and painless with very little downtime afterwards. I would highly recommend this practice.

I am a new patient with Southern Urogynecology and I have been very pleased with the level of attention to patient care and overall knowledge for my concerns. Thank you very much for making me feel so comfortable and really listening to me.
Do it, you will be happy and pad free. You will feel good when you in crowds and when you are an out of town guest. Best thing I have ever done.
Dr. Pezzella has dedicated her life work to helping women with sensitive issues. Issues that most of us find hard to talk about. She cares and understands as only a woman could. Her staff is excellent--professional yet warm. Her practice is run with efficiency--my wait times were brief. I am fortunate to have Dr. Pezzella and her staff help me attain a better quality of life. Krystle administered a urinary test (lay person's term) and was confident and caring. Beth helped me get ready for surgery by taking me through the myriad of documents to sign. Thanks to all!
I had great success with the Nuro treatments ! I now am not experiencing the leakage and my life style is getting back to a normal stage! I would whole heartedly recommend the nuro for inconsistence problem! My success with the nuro treatments has really made a difference!

I am extremely impressed with the entire staff at Southern Urogynecology because every appointment has not only been efficient, but personalized to my needs. I've never had to wait more than 10 minutes in the waiting room and I have even been seen before my actual appointment time. Everyone is courteous and has taken the time to answer all of my questions. When I leave, I feel educated, informed, and at ease with my treatment plan. I am so glad I found Southern Urogynecology! I will be a patient for years to come.
I especially want to thank Susanne. She was so very kind, patient and professional when I saw her. Really cannot thank her enough.

Dr. Pezzella immediately put me at ease upon our first meeting and I did not hesitate to make the decision that I had been delaying for the last 10 years. Her bedside manner is personable and she truly shows that she cares about her patients. I highly recommend this procedure and Dr. Pezzella. The staff was very professional and courteous.
I was very pleased with the explanations before the surgery and with all the care I received while recuperating. The handouts answered all my concerns and helped me know exactly what I needed to do to heal. I’m very thankful for the results of the surgery.
Dr. Pezzella and the staff are AWESOME!!! Dr. Pezzella is always personable, very down to earth, and has a great bed side manner. I would recommend this office to anyone!????

I'm very glad that I decided to have a partial hysterectomy and pelvic floor repair with Dr. Pezzella. I was very satisfied with care before, during, and after surgery. Adequate information and directions were provided before surgery. The surgery was uneventful and I was discharged the following day. I was able to discontinue pain medication in a couple of days. I followed Dr. Pezzella's post-surgery instructions and experienced no complications or problems although total recovery from the procedures took longer than I expected. That may be related to my age (72). I truly feel that I have had great improvement in my quality of life now as compared to before the procedures. I would highly recommend that anyone with this type of problem visit Dr. Pezzella and her friendly staff.
My experience with Doctor Pazella and this facility in it’s entirety was the best I’ve ever had. Everything from appointments, diagnosis, pre-op, surgery, post-op, and recovery were all handled with great care and detailed explanations of everything. I will recommend this office to anyone who has issues in this field of care.

Once I made my decision to have something done regarding my bladder leak, I was able to schedule all the necessary appointments with ease. I decided to move forward with the bladder sling surgery with no hesitations after Dr. Pezzella explained the risk and benefits and covered the Informed Consent physicians are required to have signed PRIOR to surgery. Day of surgery- everyone was welcoming and pleasant- as if they were welcoming us into their home. Dr. Pezzella came in and explained the process again and answered my husbands questions. Surgery was a breeze. I have no recollection of the surgery;however I woke up as they were wheeling me out of the OR. I had no pain and I was able to go to the restroom after the IV fluids finished- and then home. No prescription pain meds needed after surgery and returned to normal activity the next day, with the exception of the restrictions. So happy I found Southern Urogynecology, Dr. Pezzella and her staff. All are awesome.
I would recommend having the surgery. There is really no down time as far as missing work. I took three days but could have only taken two. I have a bridge run 3k in about three weeks and I feel very good about doing the run without any leaking etc.
I did not have an urgent need so that question did not apply, but have been very pleased with everything else. So thankful I’m going to be back to a normal lifestyle because of my surgery.

I have had very positive experiences at SU even with some complications and setbacks. The staff is friendly and efficient and Dr. P has a wonderful bedside manner. I have been very pleased with my care here.
Dr. Pezella was attentive to my questions and worries and answered all my questions.
Wonderful caring and kind
She is wonderful and I recommend her to everyone I talk to. She saved me. Another doctor told me I have a prolapsed bladder for 3 Year’s and it was not and she corrected it.

Dr. Pezzella and her medical and administrative team provide exceptional care! I have been an IC patient with this practice for over 5 years. They are experts in the field and have helped me deal with my progressive illness and chronic pain when no one else could seem to help me. I don't think I would be where I am today without them. The staff is knowledgeable, compassionate, friendly and responsive to all of my needs. I highly recommend them!
