The medical specialty of urology covers a wide range of urologic problems, from kidney stones to infertility or numerous cancers. Most patients that are seen are first evaluated by their primary medical or family practice doctors. These physicians often initially treat basic urologic problems such as an enlarged prostate or a urinary tract infection. If the problems become more severe, our urologists are then consulted. The evaluation begins with an office visit where problems are identified and treatment options discussed. If a problem requires surgery, you are in good hands. All of our urologists are also experienced surgeons. For complex or high risk cases, we form a team to perform the procedure, ensuring the highest quality of care.
