• Osteoporosis
• Arthritis
• Cryotherapy
  At Urology Austin, our navigation program divides patients into two groups: men with localized, regional or recurrent prostate cancer, and men with advanced prostate cancer.  Localized cancer means that it is still located within the prostate gland. Regional means it has moved just outside the prostate and may affect nearby seminal vesicles, tissues, organs or lymph nodes. Recurrent disease indicates that the prostate cancer has returned after a primary treatment. Treatments may include surgery, radiation, cryotherapy or High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU). Men with localized, regional or recurrent cancer are served by a dedicated patient navigator. Our second patient navigator works with men whose cancer has metastasized, or who have non-metastatic cancer that is resistant to hormonal therapy.
• Primary Care
  Care Coordinators schedule appointments, communicate with your Primary Care Provider (PCP) and other specialists, work toward quality-of-life goals and connect you with support services, as needed.
• Family Practice
  In order to diagnose the root of a patient’s pelvic pain, urologists will take a medical history, symptoms history, and family health history as well as run a series diagnostic tests.

  Constipation is any dissatisfaction with bowel movements. This can mean infrequent bowel movements, incomplete bowel movements, difficulty passing stool, or straining to defecate. Constipation is a multifactorial issue and is effected by diet, water consumption, activity level, pelvic floor muscle dysfunction, medication, hormones, aging, ignoring urges, and other conditions such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Constipation can also be caused by prolapse of the bladder, rectum, or uterus for females. A prolapse can compress the rectum, compacting the bowels, or create “pouches” in the rectum where stool can get stuck. Other symptoms associated with prolapse include a feeling of heaviness, a feeling of something stuck in the vagina, or need to press on perineum, vagina, or rectum to assist with defecation.
• Urinary Incontinence
  Women’s bodies go through many changes due to things like childbirth, perimenopause and menopause and other medical conditions. These changes can lead to laxity, or looseness, in vaginal tissue. As women age, vaginal tissue often becomes dry due to the decrease in estrogen, causing pain during sexual intercourse or urinary symptoms such as urinary incontinence. In the past, women’s only treatment options for these problems were medication, hormone therapy or surgery. Now, vaginal rejuvenation treatments offer patients another alternative. Patients testify that vaginal treatments have helped relieve their symptoms caused by the following conditions.

  Common urologic causes of hematuria include urinary tract infections, kidney or bladder stones, benign prostate enlargement (BPH), and prostate infections. More serious causes of hematuria include bladder, prostate, or kidney cancer. Symptoms such as flank pain, urinary frequency, or painful urination may coexist with hematuria, which aides the provider in making the correct diagnosis. In young children, microscopic hematuria is usually self-limiting. However, it is important that children with persistent/recurrent hematuria be evaluated by a pediatric urologist.
• Kidney Stones
  Kidney stones are caused by a crystallization of various substances in your urine, usually calcium. They can be as small as a pebble, or as large as a walnut. It’s important to recognize symptoms in order to know when to seek help for kidney stones. When stones are small and able to pass on their own, an appointment with a urologist may be all that is needed. However, if they are large and will not pass, this may require emergency assistance.

Sometimes people feel like they have a urinary tract infection (UTI) as the symptoms can be similar. Urgency may be due to a UTI, however, it can also be due to increased tension of pelvic floor muscles and restrictions connective tissue of the pelvis, abdomen, inner thighs, and buttock.
• Prostate Cancer
  Navigators play several roles when assisting prostate cancer patients. Their main role is to provide one-on-one, personalized guidance to patients as they move through their care pathway. They help connect patients to needed treatments, medications and financial assistance when necessary. Navigation is always based on the treatment plan outlined by the overseeing doctor. Prostate cancer navigators also serve as the central point of contact to facilitate communication between the patient and their care team. This team includes their physician, the physician’s nurse and his or her medical staff. In addition, an important part of their role is to educate patients about their condition, treatment options, medications, symptoms, expectations and next steps.
• Cancer Care
  Oftentimes, patients are referred to navigators by practice providers. However, navigators also seek out patients who may have discontinued their treatment or failed to follow-up with their appointments or doctor recommended care plan. Once connecting with these patients, navigators are able to assist by answering questions that can help the patient make an informed decision about continuing with prostate cancer care.

• Ultrasound
  When hematuria is unexplained or recurrent, it is important to have a comprehensive evaluation performed to rule out a significant underlying disease or condition. A typical evaluation for hematuria includes a CT urogram (also referred to as a CT-IVP), as well as a cystoscopy. A cystoscopy is a procedure in which a small camera is passed through the urethra into the bladder to visually inspect the bladder walls. Both of these tests are generally performed in the urologist’s office. Other radiographic tests such as ultrasound and MRI are used occasionally depending on the medical scenario of the individual patient.

  Urinary urgency is a symptom and can be indicative of one of the diagnoses listed above. To diagnose these conditions, urologists will take a full symptom, medical, and pharmacological history as well as run a urinary analysis to rule out active infections.

If other conditions are suspected, patients will be referred for further testing based on their providers assessment.
