Advanced treatments that get you back to you
Many urological conditions can affect your daily life with inconvenient and sometimes embarrassing symptoms. At LCMC Health, we use the latest treatments to help you feel like yourself again as quickly as possible.
If surgery is required, you might be a candidate for a minimally invasive robotic procedure. Our surgeons are trained to use the da Vinciâ Surgical System, which allows the surgeon to use a robotic arm to perform surgery while getting a detailed view on an advanced console. This type of surgery increases precision while reducing recovery time, as it requires only small incisions. Most patients experience a faster and easier recovery with less chance for post-op complications.

Coordinated care for the best results
Our urology specialists are committed to delivering the highest quality care for adults and children. To make that happen, they frequently collaborate with internists, pediatricians, OB-GYNs and other physicians to ensure that no detail is missed and they have the information needed to plan the best course of action. Urologists also stay in close contact with referring physicians to keep them in the loop about their patients’ progress.
