Our office is fully equipped with state-of-the-art technology, such that a full range of urological procedures and testing can be performed on site. We offer office-based pathology, laboratory, ultrasound imaging, video-cystoscopy, urodynamics, prostate biopsies, and other minor surgical procedures. BUA is proud of its efficiency and courteous, supportive, and attentive staff, with patient privacy and comfort being of paramount importance to us. Our goal is to deliver the highest quality urological care in a sensitive, compassionate, and personal manner. A urologist is a physician and a surgeon who has been trained to treat disorders of the male and female urinary tract (kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra) and the male reproductive system (prostate gland, penis and scrotum, and testicles). The following is a summary of the educational training of a urologist: After completing four years of college, a urologist-to-be must pursue four years of medical school. After graduating from medical school, two years of residency training in general surgery are embarked upon before entering a urology residency. After completion of a four year urology residency, an optional extra year of training, referred to as a fellowship, may be undertaken in any of a number of highly specialized area of urology.
