Dr. Michael Weinstein interviews Dr. Donevan Westerveld of Borland Groover in Jacksonville, Florida, about how his practice uses InterStim therapy to care for patients with fecal incontinence, a condition that affects an estimated 18 million Americans.Despite the availability of effective treatments, fecal incontinence is under-diagnosed and under-treated, and roughly two thirds of those affected never discuss it with a physician. InterStim is a small, implanted device developed by Medtronic that helps restore communication between the brain and the nerves that control bowel function.Join Dr. Weinstein and Dr. Westerveld as they discuss why Borland Groover brought InterStim therapy in-house, what it takes to integrate it into a GI practice, and how independent gastroenterologists can position themselves to care for patients who may otherwise go undiagnosed or untreated.Produced by Andrew Sousa and Hayden Margolis for Steadfast Collaborative, LLCMixed and mastered by Hayden MargolisGastro Broadcast, episode 91, presented by TissueCypher from Castle Biosciences
