FAQ's Related to Urologist

What does a Urologist do?

As a physician, it is a urologist who undertakes treatment of health conditions present in urinary tract and of male reproductive system. When you are facing problems of urethra, ureters, bladder, kidneys, and adrenal glands, the doctor is bound to refer you to a urologist. Further to this, when it comes to the male reproductive system, it is the urologists who treat problems of seminal vesicles, penis, prostate, testes, and epididymis. Also, they are responsible for treatment of cancers in bladder, kidneys, prostate gland, testicles as well as bladder prolapse and enlarged prostate.

We bring here to you the tests which usually Urologists recommend.:

  • Pyelogram
  • Cystography

Before beginning the physical exam the doctor begins the process by asking you questions regarding your medical history and going through the reports. The physical exam consists of checking the urinary tract, penis or testicles as well if need be and doing the digital rectal exam. It goes without saying that blood and urine tests are an important component of the consultation process with the urologist as they help in figuring out what has gone wrong with the patient vis a vis the urological system. The diagnoses of the patient's health condition is made easier through X-ray scans, Ultrasound and CT scan, all imaging techniques.
