Urology services

Conditions that affect the reproductive and urinary tract organs can interfere with your daily life. Yet people can be reluctant to discuss symptoms with their doctors because of embarrassment. The highly skilled and compassionate experts at our urinary clinics are easy to talk to. They’ll get to the cause of your symptoms and get you started with treatment when you need it.

Some of the urologic disorders we treat are:

Urologic cancers

The three most common urologic cancers for men are prostate cancer, bladder cancer and kidney cancer. Urologic cancers often don’t have symptoms in the early stages. Blood in the urine (hematuria) can be a symptom of any of these cancers, although it’s more often caused by something less serious.

Prostate cancer

We treat prostate cancer at locations all over Wisconsin with a variety of techniques including surgery, radiation therapy, hormone therapy, chemotherapy and immunotherapy. Prostate cancer often grows slowly. With some prostate cancers, we may delay active treatment while performing periodic monitoring at our prostate clinics to determine whether a prostate cancer has grown enough to need treatment.

Bladder cancer

With early detection, treatment of bladder cancer is often highly successful. So it’s vital to tell your doctor about any symptoms such as blood in your urine, changes in urinary frequency, or pain or burning during urination. With testing at one of our many urinary clinics, you can quickly be on the road to treatment and recovery.

Kidney cancer

Surgery is the most common kidney cancer treatment. Depending on the size and placement of your cancer, we may be able to remove only part of your kidney using minimally invasive techniques. We also offer nonsurgical treatments for some kinds of kidney cancers.
