General Practitioners

Headaches
Fibromyalgia
Medical Weight Loss
Stress urinary incontinence is caused by weakening of the pelvic floor. Therefore, factors that increase risk of SUI are pregnancy, childbirth, aging / menopause, obesity and previous pelvic and abdominal surgeries. Some women will have SUI during and after pregnancy that resolves with delivery and weight loss.
Pediatric Care
Our physicians are board certified or board eligible certification, and experienced in treating the full range of urologic problems. Our team includes experts in men and womenâ€™s health, urologic cancers, stone disease, robotic surgery, pediatrics, urogynecology and neurourology.
Primary Care
You will need a pre-anesthesia clearance before your surgery to clear you for anesthesia. This is typically done by your primary care physician and sometimes by a cardiologist, if needed.
Smoking Cessation
Family Practice
Male Infertility
Male infertility caused by a varicose vein of the testicle and scrotum â€“ called varicoceles â€“ is a very common occurrence, affecting approximately 10 percent of all men.
Emergency Care
With the stent in place you may have bladder irritation – including going to the bathroom more frequently, burning with urination, back pain, urgency, or bladder spasms. It is common to have some blood in the urine with the stent in place. If the blood in the urine is persistent, thick, or has clots â€“ contact the office. If the pain is severe, you have vomiting, or you have a fever above 101Â°F â€“ call the office or go to the emergency room.
Colonoscopy
Constipation
Erectile Dysfunction
Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Electrocardiogram
Depending on your medical history you may need pre-operative testing such as an electrocardiogram (EKG), blood work, or a clearance by your primary care physician or cardiologist.
Urinary Incontinence
There are several types of urinary incontinence or leakage that women experience. The two main types are stress incontinence and urge incontinence.

Female Infertility
Endometriosis
Pelvic Pain
Chronic Non-bacterial prostatitis / chronic pelvic pain syndrome: Can cause chronic urinary symptoms and pelvic discomfort in the absence of an infection
Pregnancy
Pelvic organ prolapse is caused by weakening or injury to the pelvic floor muscles. These muscles act like a hammock to keep the pelvic organs in place. Pregnancy and childbirth are the main causes of POP but it can also be seen with normal aging, menopause and obesity.
Labor and Delivery
Kidney stones have been called the â€œgreat mimickerâ€ due to their ability to manifest pain and symptoms in a variety of ways. Commonly they can cause an intense pain in the flank, between the edge of the rib cage and the spine. Many female patients have described the pain as worse than childbirth. They can be accompanied by nausea, vomiting, or blood in the urine. However, they can also lead to lower abdominal pain, urinary frequency, bladder pain, penile pain, testicular pain, etc.

Bladder Cancer
Urology

Kidney Cancer
Kidney Stones
It is estimated that 11% of men and 7% of women will experience a symptomatic kidney stone episode at some point in their lives. Prior to an episode, Â stones are often â€˜silentâ€™ and not associated with any symptoms whatsoever. However, stones of any size can cause severe problems such as pain, nausea and fever or chills when they obstruct urine flow from the kidney. Large stones may cause a variety of other problems including chronic infections, visible blood in the urine and even long term damage to the kidney. The providers at AAUrology have vast experience in diagnosing, treating and kidney stone prevention.
Testicular Cancer
Undescended testes are a common condition affecting about 1 to 2 percent of male infants. This is more common in premature babies. If the testes donâ€™t descend during the first several months of life, the condition can cause infertility and an increased risk of testicular cancer.
Interstitial Cystitis
Interstitial cystitis (IC) or Painful bladder syndrome (PBS) is pain, pressure or burning in the bladder area and/or urethra accompanied by frequency or urgency of urination.
Urinary Tract Infection
They are most often caused by bacteria that get into the bladder. UTIs are also called bladder infections. Women are more likely to get a UTI, but men can get them too. UTIs in men are usually caused by an underlying issue and often require additional follow up.

Causes include prostate enlargement, urethral stricture, spinal cord injury, diabetes, multiple sclerosis, or prior abdominal surgeries.

Stress Management

Endocrinologist

Diabetes Care

Ultrasound
ESWL uses shockwave energy to fragment a stone into smaller pieces so that the smaller pieces can be passed more easily. This procedure is typically used for asymptomatic stones within the kidneys or stones in the upper portion of the ureter. The procedure is done in the hospital or surgery center and usually takes about 45 minutes. Patients are given IV sedation or anesthesia. During the procedure, the patient rests on a lithotripsy table and is positioned so that the stone can be identified with the use of X-ray and/or ultrasound imaging.
MRI
Radiology
We have collaborative relationships with nearby academic centers including Georgetown Hospital, George Washington Hospital Center, Johns Hopkins and The University of Maryland Medical Center, enabling us to offer the most cutting edge treatments and therapies. We also work with exceptional local radiology and oncology groups to provide you with the best coordinated care.
X-Rays
Computed Tomography
Bring ALL films â€“ including X-rays and CT scans to the hospital / surgery center. The surgeon may need to review them prior to your surgery. The procedure typically takes 60-90 minutes depending on the size and location of the stone.

Minimally Invasive Surgery
Our team of urologic cancer specialists offer the latest treatments for bladder, kidney, testicular, penile and prostate cancer. At AAUrology, we tailor each patientâ€™s treatment to ensure the best outcome and provide you with answers and support from diagnosis through treatment, recovery, and survivorship. Our team of cancer specialists is board certified and experienced in the full range of treatments, including robotic and minimally invasive surgery.
Vasectomy
Each year, more than 500,000 men in the U.S. Choose vasectomy as a permanent method of birth control. This minor surgical procedure prevents pregnancy better than any other method of birth control except abstinence.
Robotic Surgery
More complex procedures, such as robotic surgery, are performed at our three nearby affiliate hospitals, Anne Arundel Medical Center, Baltimore Washington Medical Center & Doctor’s Community Hospital.
Hysterectomy
There are several surgical treatments for pelvic prolapse depending on your anatomy and degree of prolapse. If you have symptomatic anterior or posterior prolapse your provider may discuss with you an anterior and/or posterior repair. With this surgery, the connective tissue between the bladder or rectum is used to reinforce the weak pelvic floor and reduce the vaginal bulge. Another option for surgical management is a sacrocolpopexy. This procedure is more invasive and requires removal of the uterus if the patient has not already had a hysterectomy. A sacrocolpopexy is typically done as a robotic surgery. The surgeon will use mesh to lift the top of the vagina and attach it to a ligament near the tailbone.

Plastic Surgeons

Botox
If the above strategies fail there are several other options including Botox (botulinum toxin) injection into the bladder, neurostimulation and major bladder surgery.
Gynecomastia
This class of drugs help to shrink the prostate, which will hopefully allow a better flow. These can be used in conjunction with the medications listed above.Â They can also have some potential side effects, including erectile dysfunction, gynecomastia, and change in PSA level.

Fungus
Pyelonephritis is a type of urinary tract infection where one or both kidneys become infected with either bacteria, a virus, or a fungus.

Physical Therapists

Physical Therapy
Pelvic floor physical therapy can be used in conjunction with behavior modification to provide successful relief of symptoms without medication. A pelvic floor physical therapist can help you retrain the bladder and coordinate urination.
