Urology Department

Male Reproductive Health: Urologists address male reproductive health concerns, including erectile dysfunction, male infertility, testicular pain, and conditions affecting the penis and scrotum. They can provide evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment options for these conditions.

Kidney Conditions: Urologists diagnose and treat various kidney conditions, such as kidney stones, kidney infections, kidney cysts, and kidney tumors. They may perform surgical procedures, such as ureteroscopy or percutaneous nephrolithotomy, to remove kidney stones or address other kidney-related issues.

Bladder Conditions: Urologists manage bladder-related conditions, including bladder infections, bladder cancer, overactive bladder, and bladder prolapse. They may perform diagnostic procedures, such as cystoscopy, and provide appropriate treatment options, which can range from medication management to surgical interventions.

Pediatric Urology: Some urology departments have specialists who focus on the urological care of children. They manage conditions such as vesicoureteral reflux, urinary tract abnormalities, undescended testes, hypospadias, and other congenital urological disorders in pediatric patients.

Urological Oncology: Urologists play a crucial role in the management of urological cancers, including bladder cancer, kidney cancer, prostate cancer, and testicular cancer. They can provide comprehensive care, including diagnosis, staging, surgical interventions, and coordination with other oncology specialists for treatment planning.

Minimally Invasive Surgery: Urologists utilize minimally invasive techniques, such as laparoscopy and robotic-assisted surgery, to perform various urological procedures. These techniques offer advantages such as smaller incisions, reduced pain, quicker recovery times, and shorter hospital stays.

Urodynamic Testing: Urology departments may offer urodynamic testing, which evaluates the function of the bladder and urethra. These tests help diagnose conditions like urinary incontinence and determine appropriate treatment options.

Continence and Pelvic Floor Rehabilitation: Urologists may work closely with specialized nurses or physical therapists to provide continence care and pelvic floor rehabilitation for conditions like urinary incontinence or pelvic organ prolapse.
