Question 1

What does a Urologic Oncology urologist do?

Accepted Answer

A Urologic Oncology urologist is a Urology physician with focused training in the diagnosis and treatment of cancers of the urinary tract and male reproductive system. After completing Urology residency, they pursue additional fellowship training so they can manage cases that fall outside what a general urologist typically handles day to day.

Question 2

What conditions does a Urologic Oncology urologist treat?

Accepted Answer

A Urologic Oncology urologist commonly treats prostate cancer, bladder cancer, kidney cancer, testicular cancer, and upper tract urothelial cancer. Many also see closely related conditions within Urology, particularly when a case is complex, atypical, or has not responded to first-line care from a general urologist.

Question 3

When should I see a Urologic Oncology urologist?

Accepted Answer

Consider seeing a Urologic Oncology urologist when you have a diagnosed urologic cancer or an abnormal finding that needs cancer-focused evaluation, when a primary care clinician or general urologist suggests a focused evaluation, or when you want a second opinion from a physician whose practice is concentrated on this exact area. Patients often reach a Urologic Oncology urologist through referral, but you can also seek one directly.

Question 4

How is a Urologic Oncology urologist different from a general urologist?

Accepted Answer

Both are board-eligible urologists, but a Urologic Oncology urologist has additional fellowship training and a practice that focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of cancers of the urinary tract and male reproductive system. General urologists treat a broad range of Urology concerns; Urologic Oncology urologists concentrate on the harder or more specific cases within that range, and tend to see a higher volume of patients with prostate cancer, bladder cancer, kidney cancer, testicular cancer, and upper tract urothelial cancer.
