Virginia Urology is a leader in the treatment and research of urologic cancers. Virginia Urology has a highly-skilled and experienced team of physicians who have sub-specialized in the treatment of prostate, kidney, bladder, and testicular cancers. In addition to being board certified in urology, many of our physicians have also completed sub-specialty fellowship training in urological cancer surgical techniques at world-class academic institutions. Therefore, our physicians are able to offer the latest therapies in urologic cancer care including advanced laparoscopic and robotic treatment options.
Our physicians have been closely involved in collaborative and in-house research in the field of urologic oncology for more than 20 years. This allows our patients to benefit from and often participate in urologic cancer research.
