Urology
The Urology Clinic provides medical and surgical care of the urinary system for children and youth.
The Urology Clinic treats common problems such as urinary tract infections, wetting, undescended testis, hernias, hydronephrosis, hypospadias, hydroceles and urinary reflux.
BC Children's Hospital urologists perform reconstructive surgery; support the management of complex inherited urinary tract conditions and chronic kidney failure; and care for children with neuropathic bladder dysfunction, both congenital and acquired.
Referral information
You need a referral from your child or youth's family doctor, nurse practitioner or pediatrician to visit this clinic. For more information on the referral process, visit the urology referrals page.
We do not accept consultations for non-medical circumcisions.
