Methodist Urogynecology Associates at Houston Methodist Willowbrook
Hospital, where she serves as the Medical Director of

One in three women suffer from pelvic floor disorders, yet only
one in 10 women discuss these issues with their primary care
physician – and therefore, suffer in silence.
"As a specialist, I focus my clinical practice on comprehensive
care of women with pelvic floor disorders, which include:
prolapse-hernias of the vagina and womb, urinary incontinence,
accidental bowel leakage and all other related problems," Dr. Lindo
explained.
Dr. Lindo understands the pelvis is not a box separate to
itself, it houses several organ systems such as the urinary system,
gynecological system, reproductive organs, muscular skeletal
system, gastrointestinal system, the nervous system. Each of the
systems interact and are impacted when one is not working
properly.
"It is important to evaluate each system and address the issue
holistically," she continued. "My approach to care is to provide an
environment where women can share their concerns and together we
create a workable treatment plan that involves cutting edge
conservative treatment options, and when necessary, surgical
treatments."

Dr. Lindo practices with Houston Methodist Urogynecology
Associates, which is located at Houston Methodist Willowbrook
Hospital.
