For the 2nd consecutive year, Dr. Littman has earned the prestigious award as being named a Castle Connolly Regional Top Doctor! He is only one of four doctors in New Jersey to achieve this recognition!

Women who experience leakage from their bladders or have the “got to go” feeling at inconvenient times are not alone. The problem, though embarrassing for some, is more common – and treatable – than many women realize.

A recent research study, which analyzed nine years of data from 3,000 women ages 42-64, found that 68 percent of this group experienced the problem at least once a month. In fact, more Americans suffer from urinary incontinence than from diabetes and hypertension.

We are very pleased to announce that both Dr. Littman and Dr. Gil were selected as a Castle Connolly Top Doctor for 2018! This highly prestigious award was given to us after being nominated by our physician peers and helps to represent that we offer only the highest quality care to our patients. At the time of this writing, Advanced Women's Health of NJ now has 2 of the 4 Castle Connolly Top Doctors in Urogynecology in all of NJ!

Even if you're vigilant about getting routine GYN care, bladder cancer may not really be on your radar. After all, it's far more common among men than women, and the majority of cases affect patients over age 65. But don't let those stats keep you from learning to spot the symptoms. Many people mistakenly think bladder cancer is only a disease of older men, but there are more than 18,000 women who are diagnosed with this cancer every year in the United States.
