Urology

Urology is the specialty dealing with the important detoxifying systems of urine secretion and draining in both men and women (kidneys, renal tubules, urinary bladder, urethra), and exclusively in the case of men, it is the field specializing in diseases of the reproductive organs (testes, epididymis, prostate, seminal vesicles and vas deferens, penis, accessory sexual glands). In our urology office we provide screening tests and provide care for patients with urological complaints.

One of the specialties of our office is diagnosing and treating bladder pain syndrome, which is done by our urology specialist, Dr. Sándor Lovász. This disease, known in scientific circles as IC/BPS (Interstitial Cystitis/Bladder Pain Syndrome) is estimated to affect approximately 20 thousand people in Hungary today, but no exact numbers can be known, as this is an exceptionally underdiagnosed disease.
