What Is Urology Care?
Urology care focuses on conditions affecting the urinary tract and the male reproductive system. This includes the kidneys, ureters, bladder, prostate and urethra.
Urologists diagnose and treat common concerns like urinary symptoms and kidney stones, as well as complex conditions such as cancer and pelvic floor disorders. Care may include medication, minimally invasive procedures or surgery, depending on your needs.
