This includes antenatal hydronephrosis, undescended testis, hernia/hydrocele, hydronephrosis, kidney stones, vesicoureteral reflux, bladder exstrophy, hypospadias, epispadias, voiding dysfunction, disorders of sex development and bedwetting. Robotics: DMC Urology residents will have access to both the DaVinci Si and DaVinci Xi robotic systems during training. They will work one on one with faculty to treat a spectrum of urologic conditions robotically including: Urologic Oncology, Complex Urinary Reconstruction, Female Urology and General Urology.  Residents will also become proficient in standard laparoscopic/minimally invasive techniques Oncology: DMC Urology provides comprehensive care to patients across all urologic malignancies. Residents will be exposed to preoperative diagnosis and counseling by participating in the urology clinic, multidisciplinary tumor boards and diagnostic procedures.  They will have the opportunity to train under fellowship trained faculty performing complex cancer operations in both the open and minimally invasive setting. Reconstructive Urology: We are one of the few centers in the world that is highly specialized in the field of Urologic Trauma and Reconstruction. Our physicians treat many conditions including: urethral stricture, buried penis, Peyronie’s disease, fistulae, ureteral obstruction and others. Andrology: We have helped over one thousand men overcome erectile dysfunction and other sexual issues, restoring them to the life they wish to live. Common problems that contribute to erectile dysfunction include aging, diabetes, high blood pressure, vascular disease, elevated cholesterol, fatigue, smoking, relationship conflict, depression, other prescription medications, substance abuse, and low testosterone, and neurological problems. At DMC urology we are able to determine the underlying cause of your difficulties, and work with you to determine the best treatment to improve your erections, until your and your partners' sexual satisfaction is restored. Initially we counsel patients to improve their overall health with lifestyle modifications, improving blood pressure / diabetes control, exercise, smoking cessation, etc. We also make sure that the testosterone level is good, and at the same time we begin treatments, which range from pills to injections. Some patients may require a short surgical procedure to place a penile prosthesis which reliably restores erections when other treatments fail. Endourology: Endourology is a minimally invasive technique available to treat kidney stones. Stones may be extracted or fragmented using tiny instruments through natural body channels such as the urethra, bladder and ureter. Thin scopes are gently advanced through the natural body channels to identify the kidney stones and carefully remove them, sometimes applying laser energy to break the stone. Most such procedures can be done on an outpatient basis. Common endourology procedures include ureteroscopy, cystoscopy, ESWL (extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy), and PCNL (percutaneous nephrolithotomy). Endourology cases range from straightforward to complex, and we are well equipped to handle efficiently and safely the most complex endourology cases using the latest technology
