Urology

Urology is a surgical specialty which deals with diseases of the male and female urinary tract (kidneys, ureters, bladder and urethra). It also deals with diseases of the male reproductive organs (prostate, testes, scrotum etc). 

At Spire Dunedin Hospital, we have a centre dedicated to the diagnosis and treatment of a wide range of urological disorders, offering a single-point of referral and short waiting times. So you won't have to wait to get back to the things that matter. 

The Urology Practice provides care to patients with a broad spectrum of urological problems.

In conjunction with Spire Dunedin Hospital and working closely with specialist pathologists, radiologists and oncologists, we provide top quality, affordable care with appointment and treatment times to suit you. We also have the benefit of having on-site X-ray, MRI, CT, ultrasound and physiotherapy available. We work closely with local healthcare professionals and GPs to ensure they are kept up to date with the very latest in treatment technology.
