Urology

Current maternal ultrasound technology allows the diagnosis of many urologic problems before the baby is born. Our pediatric urology team is available for consultation prior to delivery to streamline and coordinate post natal care for the child.

Using state-of-the-art technology and best practice medicine, the urology team at Helen DeVos Children's Hospital will diagnose, evaluate, manage and treat the entire spectrum of urologic disorders for children of all ages.

  • Evaluation and management of voiding disorders, vesicoureteral reflux and urinary tract infections that require surgery
  • Surgical reconstruction of the urinary tract (kidneys, ureters and bladder), including genital abnormalities, hypospadias and intersex conditions
  • Surgery for groin conditions in childhood and adolescence, including undescended testes, hydrocele/hernia and varicocele
