Today's guest is Dr. Joshua Bleier, a colorectal surgeon and chair of the Department of Surgery at Pennsylvania Hospital in Philadelphia, who shares with us about a treatment that provides relief to an enormous number of patients with bowel incontinence. It's minimally invasive, performed in office, and in Dr. Bleier's experience, can deliver meaningful improvement to as many as 90% of the patients he treats with these issues.
