What is a urologist – and what do they do?
Urologists are a type of hospital-based surgeon.
They are experts in the surgical treatment (including operations) of diseases of the urinary tract, including:
- Urinary tract infections (UTIs)
- Kidney stones
- Bladder and prostate problems – including problems with urination (passing wee)
- Congenital urinary abnormalities – i.e. from birth
- Erectile dysfunction
- Kidney, prostate, bladder, testicular, penile cancer.
Most hospitals have a team of urologists partly because the diseases they deal with are common.
Urologists do not normally do kidney transplants.
Who do urologists work with?
In the bigger teaching hospitals they work together with hospital-based kidney doctors (non surgeons called nephrologists); who really try to help each other (and therefore, you).
Because they do cancer operations, they also work a lot with cancer doctors (non surgeons called oncologists).
