Urology

The Urologists at Mount Sinai Medical Center treat a wide range of disorders related to the bladder, kidney and prostate, using the most up-to-date procedures and treatment protocols to produce the best possible results for both men and women. Innovative clinical approaches also include microwave application and GreenLight™ laser treatment for patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), or enlarged prostate. Through an innovative partnership with the Columbia University Division of Urology, Mount Sinai now offers robotic assisted surgery using the da Vinci Robot. Patients have the opportunity to participate in clinical trials and research which are working to improve patient outcomes. It is our commitment to employ the latest therapies to treat male and female incontinence; cancers of the bladder, kidney and prostate; and male impotence.
