From common to complex, we treat all urinary conditions with our specialty programs and clinics
You can trust our team to approach urinary, kidney and reproductive issues and abnormalities in your child with a compassionate focus on diagnosis and treatment, improvement of function, and maintaining a healthy system.
Bedwetting and incontinence program
Our most common treatments are for kids with bedwetting and incontinence issues. Our treatment program helps them better control their conditions and overcome stigmas.

Muscle retraining program
Many children tend to restrict their muscles when voiding their bladder. With advanced technology and behavioral modification, we can help children “unlearn” these behaviors and pass urine normally.
Newborn circumcision clinic
We provide multiple options for circumcision of infants up to 12 weeks of age at our outpatient offices. Set up your appointment now.

Multidisciplinary clinics: A comprehensive approach to complex conditions
Not all urologic or reproductive conditions are common. When young patients are diagnosed with more complex cases, we work in close collaboration with other CHoR specialists to provide multidisciplinary care. Specialized pediatric clinics include:
- Differences of sex development (DSD), collaborating with endocrinology and psychology
- Kidney stones, collaborating with nephrology
- Prenatal urinary tract dilation, collaborating with nephrology and maternal fetal medicine
- Spina bifida, collaborating with rehab, neurosurgery and orthopaedics
Advanced minimally invasive treatments for common urinary conditions
Most patients require treatment for relatively common conditions that occur early in development, such as undescended testis, hernias and hydroceles (fluid in testicles). Many of these conditions are managed surgically and healed before the child is ever aware there was an issue – some patients can be managed with minimally invasive surgery that heals in a way that leaves no scarring.
We offer a full range of diagnostic and treatment options, including:
- Biofeedback (using safe, electrical sensors to train muscles)
- Bladder re-training
- Nuclear medicine studies
- Ultrasound
- Urine studies and hematologic (blood) evaluation
- Urodynamics with fluoroscopy (X-ray to see how the bladder works)
- Voiding cystourethrogram/VCUG (to see the draining of the bladder; sedated)
- Magnetic resonance urography
If management and monitoring are not the best option, surgery is considered. We strive to use minimally invasive or robotic techniques whenever possible to improve surgical outcomes and recovery time. For example, our advanced robotics program offers minimally invasive robotic-assisted kidney and bladder surgery. Today, it’s a standard tool for obstructed kidney surgery in pediatric urology.
