Should I See a Urologist?

While a primary care provider may be sufficient to clear up a mild urinary problem such as a urinary tract infection (UTI), they may refer you to a urologist if symptoms do not improve or you need more specialized care. Some patients need to see both a urologist and another specialist for specific conditions, such as an oncologist for prostate or other urologic cancers.

You should see a urologist as soon as possible if you have any of the following concerns:

  • A lump in the testicle
  • Blood in urine
  • Difficulty getting or sustaining an erection
  • Difficulty urinating
  • Elevated PSA blood test
  • Kidney stones
  • Pain or burning while urinating
  • Prostate problems
  • Urinary urgency
  • Urine leakage
  • Weak urine flow
