Dr Fiona Wu always encourages that no urinary issue is too small and that one should not suffer from incontinence and write their symptoms off as a “part of ageing”. With this in mind, she birthed Aare Urocare — a one-stop incontinence centre that specialises in providing a wide variety of solutions for urinary incontinence, from complex surgical procedures to minimally invasive in-clinic treatments, such as urodynamic study, neuromodulation, neurotoxin injections and FOTONA laser.

Aare Urocare also provides treatment for other bladder and kidney-related conditions. The name Aare was derived from the Aare River in Bern, Switzerland, where Dr Fiona Wu completed her fellowship training in Female and Reconstructive Urology under the tutelage of world-renowned reconstructive surgeons. This was also where she was exposed to challenging surgeries and complex cases, which furthered her practice and passion for urology. 

Prior to her private practice, Dr Fiona Wu spent 15 years in public service. She was a Consultant in the Department of Urology at the National University Hospital Singapore (NUHS), Alexandra Hospital and Ng Teng Fong General Hospital. Dr Wu’s clinical interests include female urology, neuro-urology, urinary incontinence, reconstructive urology and voiding dysfunction. 

During her tenure at NUHS, she served in the female, functional and reconstructive subspecialty and was in charge of bringing new treatments for patients in NUH, Ng Teng Fong General Hospital (NTFGH) and Alexandra Hospital. 

Dr Fiona Wu is also passionate about undergraduate and postgraduate education. She was a core faculty member for Urology and the Programme Director for Surgery-In-General in the University Surgical Cluster. She won the NUHS Teaching Excellence Awards from 2019 to 2021. Her academic pursuits led to her publishing several urological papers in international journals on a wide range of topics within the realm of urology. Her active involvement in international collaborative studies with overseas urologists also led to more publications in high-impact journals. 

She is a member of the Singapore Urological Association (SUA), International Urogynecological Association (IUGA) and International Continence Society (ICS). She actively serves as the Treasurer of the Society for Continence Singapore (SFCS), where she also held the appointment of Vice President prior. She continues to organise seminars for the public and nurses in Singapore, recently expanding their reach to regional countries. 

Dr Wu is often invited as a speaker and moderator for local urological and regional conferences, usually on the topics of incontinence, urinary tract infections and voiding dysfunction. She is passionate about treating these conditions and has attended courses and seminars as often as she can.
