The Urology Group PC

Over 25 years ago, Dr. W. Vance Shappley, Jr., was one of the first physicians in Memphis, TN, to surgically implant the original InterStim sacral neuromodulation device for medication-refractory urinary symptoms. Over 5 years ago, Dr. W.V. “Rusty” Shappley, III, followed in his father’s footsteps as the first physician in Memphis to implant the rechargeable InterStim sacral neuromodulation device.

The Urology Group is tirelessly committed to remaining on the forefront of modern urologic technology. In keeping with this mission, Dr. Rusty Shappley has now become the first physician in Tennessee—and one of the first in the world—to implant the InterStim Altaviva tibial neuromodulation system. The Altaviva device has been FDA-approved for the management of medication-refractory urge urinary incontinence, and it can be placed without the risks of general anaesthesia.

St. Francis has served the Midsouth for 50 years. Sunday marked that special landmark for the hospital. The anniversary is also special for two physicians who have both been with the hospital for 50-plus years.
