Often, these conditions can be hard to pinpoint because the symptoms are either hard to see or easy to misdiagnose. But we know you are more than the sum of your symptoms. We specialize in putting the pieces of your health together so that we see the whole picture. Learn more about our urology diagnosis and how we help determine what's causing your symptoms. Treatment We work with you to determine your treatment plan, considering your goals and health needs. You'll receive the support and ongoing follow-up care that's right for you. Treatment may include: Medication Surgery We use medication to treat underlying problems such as infections, bacteria or high blood pressure. Medication also treats cancer and improves erectile dysfunction. This option may be best if a tumor is causing a urinary tract condition. We may perform surgery to remove the tumor or cancer, make changes to the structure of the urinary tract or remove damaged organs.
