Urology is a health topic that covers some delicate, perhaps difficult-to-discuss, yet critical parts and functions of both the male and female bodies — namely the urinary tract in both sexes and reproductive organs in males. Northeast Medical Group urologists are medically and surgically trained to diagnose and treat a wide range of routine and complex urological disorders. They also educate their adult and pediatric patients about preventive care of these vital systems.
Generally, urology deals with the bladder, urethra, ureters, kidneys, adrenal glands, epididymis, penis, seminal vesicle, prostate and testes. Conditions commonly treated by urologists include infection, inflammation, obstruction, dysfunction, injury or hormonal imbalance involving any of these structures.
