Hematuria means blood in your urine, which might be visible (pink/red) or only detected microscopically. Common causes include infections, kidney stones, or injury, though it can sometimes be harmless. Always consult a doctor to identify the cause, as treatment depends on the underlying issue; staying hydrated supports urinary health.

I am a urologist specializing in the medical, procedural, and surgical management of urinary symptoms in men and women including urinary leakage and difficulty urinating, female urethral disorders, pelvic organ prolapse, and bladder dysfunction caused by a neurologic condition, injury, or cancer treatment.
The conditions I treat can have a profound impact on quality of life and may lead to physical and emotional discomfort and social isolation. I recognize my patients’ need for approachable, comforting, and compassionate care that will allow them to navigate their symptoms and treatment options. Together, we develop an individualized diagnostic and treatment plan that focuses on understanding why symptoms are present and how we can best manage them.
