Northern Health partnered with the PCSC Program at BC Cancer to open the pelvic floor physiotherapy clinic. The pelvic floor physiotherapy clinic is for patients who have bladder and bowel concerns from prostate cancer treatment. In the future, the clinic will expand beyond the PCSC Program to serve other people with pelvic floor concerns.
