Finding a Urologist

I am reaching out to this forum on behalf of my 83 year old mother, who has had a series of UTIs and other incontinence challenges that seem to be getting worse. I think she is getting some treatment, and my sister is researching exactly what has been done thus far. She has never been great at remembering technical/medical communications. Coupled with some short term memory challenges, these have made it difficult to ascertain what has been tried so far. But my sister is getting access to medical records hopefully tomorrow.

My mother lives in Southern Illinois. We are looking for a good urologist in the St Louis area. Any suggestions are highly appreciated.

I know that i am not providing much information - my sister and I are trying to sort out the details, but I am 425 miles away. I found the prostrate cancer forum to be very valuable, so I am hopeful this forum will help us locate the right professional that can assess the nature of her issues and provide treatment options.
