Physicians and surgeons who specialize in urology are experts in diseases of the urinary tract and genitals. Add to the services of these internationally respected doctors the services of the UAB Incontinence Clinic and you begin to understand the scope of this nationally ranked urology program. It is not surprising that the UAB Urology Program has been ranked as one of the best in the country in U.S. News & World Report.

Sometimes urinary problems may be related to diseases of the kidneys, and to treat those, UAB has specialists in nephrology and a successful kidney transplant program.

UAB's nationally ranked Urology is housed in the Urology Clinic, located on the fifth floor of The Kirklin Clinic, pictured at right. One of Kirklin Clinic's greatest advantages is the presence of general practitioners and specialists from all fields. This unique mix of disciplines makes it easy for physicians to collaborate on diagnoses and treatments.
