Dr Howard Glazer, Ph.D., is a Clinical Associate Professor at Cornell University Medical College and an Associate Attending at New York Hospital. He specialises in the use of electromyographic feedback (biofeedback) for the rehabilitation of pelvic floor musculature in the treatment of a broad range of urologic and gynaecological conditions.

Dr Glazer conducted doctoral research in the field of neurophysiology and learning theory at the university of Texas at Austin, and post-doctoral research in neurochemistry / pharmacology at Rockerfeller University. He subsequently undertook post-doctoral training in cognitive -behaviour therapy and sex therapy at the Montreal General Hospital and at New York Hospital. Dr Glazer entered private practice in New York City in 1975 with a focus in behavioural medicine / biofeedback. His background , combining neurophysiology / neurochemistry, learning theory, sex therapy, and computerised technology as applied to these fields led to a rapid specialisation of his practice in the area of pelvic floor muscle rehabilitation.

Dr Glazer continues his clinical practice treating pelvic floor muscle dysfunctions such as urinary stress incontinence, urge incontinence, detrussor instability, interstitial cystitis, coccydynia, prostatodynia, urethral syndrome, vulvodynia / vestibulitis and other pelvic pain syndromes. In addition to his clinical practice he is actively involved in several hospital and medical college based research projects, acts as a consultant to equipment manufacturers and software development companies, and conducts didactic and hands-on training for physicians, physical therapists, psychologists, and biofeedback specialists in pelvic floor muscle rehabilitation.
