A urinary specialist is a physician who is trained in treating and diagnosing diseases of the urinary tract as well as the male reproductive system. A patient can be referred to a urinary specialist if their primary doctor suspects he/she might need treatment for a condition relating to the urethra, bladder, ureters, kidneys, and adrenal gland. In men, a urologist treats disorders related to the prostate, the epididymis, penis, seminal vesicles, and testes.

In some cases, a urinary specialist may even perform surgery. For example, they can remove cancer or clear a blockage in the urinary tract. They work in different settings, including private clinics, hospitals, and urology centers.

Aspiring candidates need to obtain a 5½ years MBBS degree followed by 2-year MS (Urology) course. Also, M.Ch. in Urology is the course for further specialization in Urology.

After graduating from medical school, the student then undergoes 4-5 years of medical training in a hospital. During this training program, also called a residency, you work closely with experienced urologists and become an expert in surgical skills.

Some urologists also decide to do 1-2 years of additional training. This is known as a fellowship in which you gain technical skills in a specialty area. It can include female urology or urologic oncology. At the end of the training, a urologist needs to pass the specialty certification exam for practicing as a urinary specialist.

When you make an appointment with a urinary specialist, there are various commonly performed tests used for diagnosing the underlying condition. Here, we will look at some of the most common urology tests. Based on the result of the test, further care, monitoring, or surgery is suggested, and you and the doctor will discuss the best treatment plan for your condition.

• X-ray scans: used for urinary tract issues.
• Cystoscopy: This allows a urologist to look in real-time and detect any abnormalities.
• Ultrasound: It is used to detect problems such as those related to the bladder, kidneys, testicles, prostate gland.
• CT scan: Used for a detailed look inside your body.
• Urine Cultures: It helps determine whether certain bacteria are present in a urine sample.
• Urinalyses: It is used to test for blood cells, bacteria, and foreign substances that should not be present in your kidneys.
• Semen Analysis or Seminogram: It analyses the volume as well as the quality of sperm.
• Creatinine/blood urea nitrogen test: This is used to assess how the kidneys are working.
• MRI: Used to take a sequence of clear images of your urinary tract.

Your primary care doctor could treat your mild urinary problems, like a UTI. They may refer you to a urinary specialist if your symptoms do not improve or if you have a complex condition that needs treatments they cannot provide. You might need to consult both urologist and another specialist for some serious conditions.

If you have any of the below-listed symptoms, you need to immediately consult a urinary specialist who will recommend proper treatment options:

• trouble urinating
• urine leakage
• weak urine flow, dribbling
• blood in urine
• a frequent/urgent need to urinate
• pain in your pelvis, lower back, or sides
• pain or burning sensation during urination
• decreased sexual desire
• a lump in the testicle
• trouble achieving an erection

A urinary specialist will have notes from the referring doctor and will ask questions about the patient’s complete medical history. Then they will carry out a physical examination and will request you to provide a urine sample for analysis, so do not visit the clinic with an empty bladder.

A urologist’s office visit starts with paperwork. This might include questionnaires to assess how severe your condition is. On the questionnaires, you need to “rate” things like incontinence and/or sexual health and lower urinary tract symptoms. You will be told to enter an exam room and a staff member will record your medical history. The urinary specialist will also perform a physical exam. After the examination, he/she will discuss a treatment plan to find what is happening. The specialist might suggest an ambulatory, office-based procedure.

Treatment of urologic conditions varies according to the diagnosis. It involves the use of medications and surgery. Some common procedures performed by a Urinary Specialist are listed below:
