Urology

Kidney stones, prostate surgery and reconstructive urology.

Urology

Urology covers the kidneys, bladder, prostate and male reproductive system — stones, obstruction from an enlarged prostate, and cancers of the urinary tract.

What to send us

A recent ultrasound or CT for stones, a PSA result and any prostate biopsy report, and a flow study if one has been done. For stones, the size and exact position determine the treatment entirely.
