Urology is the medical specialty concerned with the diagnosis and treatment of disorders of the male and female urinary tract and the male reproductive system. We strive to help our patients navigate these sensitive health concerns with a focus on comfort and convenience. Our physicians provide comprehensive treatment from one location including on-site clinical and pathology laboratories, imaging capabilities including CT scan and radiation therapy.
Though no one anticipates a cancer diagnosis, the reality is that every one in six men will develop prostate cancer in his lifetime. Fortunately, through early and routine screening accomplished by a simple blood test called a prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test, 90 percent of all prostate cancers can be detected and treated. If you are over the age of 40, talk to your doctor to determine when this non-invasive blood test is right for you. Should the need arise, take comfort in knowing Advanced Urology Specialists is backed by the resources of the Advanced Prostate Cancer Institute, also conveniently located outside of The Villages.
