    The original “Why Urology” podcast episode

    Are we heroes? Maybe. You see, a urologist is a doctor who specializes in the genito-urinary tract: kidneys, ureters, bladder, prostate, penis, urethra, and testicles. We are primarily a surgical specialty but we do quite a bit of clinical work as well. We treat cancers of the kidney, bladder, prostate and testes. We treat kidney stones, incontinence, impotence, voiding and pelvic floor dysfunction. We treat BPH or the enlarged prostate. We treat infertility, infections, pediatric urology and we treat the voiding dysfunction associated with neurologic disease. We treat the old and the young, women as well as men. The broad range of diseases that we treat as well as the broad range of people that we see make this an interesting specialty.
