About Genitourinary Disorder

Genitourinary disorder management by a urologist involves the diagnosis and treatment of conditions affecting the urinary tract and male reproductive organs. This encompasses a wide range of procedures, from minimally invasive diagnostics like cystoscopy to complex surgeries such as prostatectomies or kidney stone removal. A urologist employs advanced techniques, including laparoscopy and robotic-assisted surgery, to address issues like urinary incontinence, infections, cancers, and structural abnormalities. The goal is to restore normal function, alleviate symptoms, and improve overall quality of life through personalized, evidence-based care tailored to each patient's specific condition.

PATIENT REVIEW

My dad was admitted to MGM...

My dad was admitted to MGM with a bad fever and we were all worried. Dr. Ramya Shri was the one who really talked to us. She didn't just give medical updates; she explained things in a way we could understand, told us what to watch for at home, and actually listened to our concerns. It made a stressful time much easier to handle.
