Recurrent Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs) are infections in the bladder or kidneys that happen repeatedly. Symptoms often include burning with urination, urgency, and frequent trips to the bathroom. While typically caused by bacteria and treated with antibiotics, lifestyle considerations like proper hydration and hygiene can help prevent future episodes. It's important to discuss ongoing issues with your doctor.

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.
