Urology Medicine

Urology Medicine

Urology is a specialized medical and surgical field focused on diagnosing, treating, and managing diseases of the urinary tract (kidneys, ureters, bladder, urethra) in both men and women, as well as disorders of the male reproductive system. Urologists address a wide range of conditions, including urinary stones, infections, cancers, infertility, prostate diseases, and urinary incontinence, using both minimally invasive and advanced surgical techniques.
