The role of the urologist in urinary tract infection.
The urologist's role in urinary tract infections will vary according to the situation. Urologists do give primary care, consult, define anatomic abnormalities, surgically correct abnormalities, and do basic research in the field of urinary tract infections. Urologists are essential in diagnosing and managing cases with infections behind obstructions and working out the differential diagnoses of chronic prostatitis.
