What Urology Specialists of Austin Treat—and Why Your Urinary Health Deserves Attention

Talking About Urological Health Shouldn’t Be Uncomfortable

At Urology Specialists of Austin, we understand that talking about urinary or sexual health isn’t always easy. Whether you’re managing erectile dysfunction, waking up frequently at night to urinate, or dealing with prostate issues, these concerns are more common than most people realize—and they deserve compassionate, expert care.

Our experienced, board-certified urologists and medical providers treat every patient with discretion, respect, and a commitment to finding real solutions. If you’re ready to improve your quality of life, we’re here to help.


What Our Urology Specialists Treat

Urology is the medical specialty focused on the urinary system and the male reproductive system. That includes the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra—as well as the prostate and testicles in men.

At Urology Specialists of Austin, we treat a wide range of urological conditions, including:

  • Recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs)
  • Kidney stones
  • Enlarged prostate (BPH)
  • Urinary incontinence and overactive bladder
  • Erectile dysfunction (ED)
  • Low testosterone and reduced sex drive
  • Male infertility
  • Pediatric urology conditions
  • Neurogenic bladder
  • Urological cancers: prostate, bladder, kidney, testicular, and penile

Our Austin-based team delivers general urology and advanced diagnostics under one roof, helping patients get the answers they need—quickly and comfortably.


The “Unspoken” Concerns We Hear All the Time

Many patients delay care because their symptoms are embarrassing or because they’ve been told “it’s just part of aging.” The truth? There are often real solutions—and we hear these concerns every day.


Understanding Retrograde Ejaculation and Orgasm Changes

Men often come to us feeling confused or worried about a drop in ejaculate volume or a change in orgasm intensity. One possible cause is retrograde ejaculation, where semen travels backward into the bladder rather than out of the body. This is often due to an issue with the bladder neck muscles or a condition like a urethral stricture.

Sometimes, these changes are linked to:

  • Childhood injuries
  • Scar tissue
  • Past surgeries
  • Certain medications (especially for prostate conditions)
  • Nerve or pelvic floor disruption

What’s often most concerning to patients is not the volume, but the sensation. A satisfying experience matters more—and we approach this issue holistically. At Urology Specialists of Austin, we may evaluate you using in-office diagnostics, and if needed, offer options like PRP injections or testosterone therapy to address contributing factors.


Why Am I Waking Up to Pee All Night?

Nocturia—frequent nighttime urination—is one of the top concerns we hear from both men and women. It robs you of sleep and leaves you fatigued throughout the day. There are several possible reasons:

  • Enlarged prostate (BPH): Prevents the bladder from fully emptying
  • Overactive bladder: Triggered by diet, stress, or aging
  • Chronic inflammation: Often overlooked, but a common contributor
  • Pelvic or back pain: Can activate muscles related to urination
  • Sleep apnea: Can increase urine production at night
  • Light sleep patterns: Some patients wake easily and decide to use the restroom while awake

At Urology Specialists of Austin, we believe in personalized care. Our specialists will identify the cause—whether it’s bladder-related or something else—and walk you through treatment options, which may include minimally invasive procedures like UroLift®.


Advanced Urology Treatments and In-Office Technology

We’re proud to offer some of the most cutting-edge urology treatments available in Central Texas, right here at our Austin clinic.

  • Robotic surgery: Ideal for treating prostate cancer, bladder cancer, and kidney cancer, offering quicker recovery and less discomfort
  • Shockwave lithotripsy and ureteroscopy: Break up or remove kidney stones without major surgery
  • In-office vasectomies: Fast, effective, and often performed with nitrous oxide (laughing gas) for maximum comfort
  • On-site diagnostics: Imaging and testing done in-house to speed up diagnosis and treatment

Our investment in in-office diagnostics means fewer referrals, fewer appointments, and faster answers for you.


Cancer Care: From Early Detection to Advanced Treatment

Our physicians are leaders in urological oncology and run an advanced prostate cancer clinic within our practice.

We treat:

  • Prostate cancer: From active surveillance to surgery and advanced therapies
  • Bladder cancer: Often diagnosed through routine testing for blood in the urine
  • Kidney cancer: Frequently found during unrelated imaging
  • Testicular cancer: Highly curable, especially with early detection
  • Penile cancer: Rare but requires specialized urologic expertise

Whether you’ve been recently diagnosed or need a second opinion, our cancer clinic team is here with expert guidance and compassionate care.
