PATIENT RESOURCES
Urology is the surgical specialty that focuses on the urinary tracts of males & females, & on the reproductive system of males. Medical professionals specializing in the field of urology are called urologists or urosurgeons.
The organs covered by urology include the kidneys, ureters, urinary bladder, urethra, & the male reproductive organs (testes, epididymis, vas deferens, seminal vesicles, prostate & penis).
We believe in empowerment of the patient. This means that the patient should be given all the information about his disease and the various options of treatment available to him. The doctor is only a facilitator in this decision making process.
