Urology is the branch of medicine that focuses on the urinary system and male reproductive organs. It involves the diagnosis, treatment, and management of conditions affecting the kidneys, bladder, ureters, urethra, and male genitalia.
Urology combines medical and surgical expertise, meaning urologists can treat patients using both medication and minimally invasive or open surgery where required.
Common reasons people see a urologist include:
At Circle Reading Hospital, our urologists work closely with radiologists, oncologists, and specialist nurses to deliver accurate diagnosis and comprehensive treatment.
A urology specialist (urologist) is a doctor trained to diagnose and treat conditions affecting the urinary tract and male reproductive system. Urologists undergo extensive medical and surgical training, often developing subspecialties in areas such as:
At Circle Reading Hospital, our consultant urologists are members of national and international urological associations and are skilled in both routine and complex procedures.
They work closely with patients to provide tailored advice, explaining every step of diagnosis and treatment clearly so you can make informed decisions about your health.
Urologists at Circle Reading Hospital diagnose and manage a wide variety of urinary and reproductive conditions for both men and women, including:
These include benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH, or prostate enlargement), prostatitis (inflammation), and prostate cancer. Our urologists offer a full range of diagnostic and treatment options, from PSA testing to minimally invasive surgery.
We treat bladder infections, incontinence, bladder stones, and bladder cancer. Our hospital offers advanced diagnostic tests, including cystoscopy and urodynamic studies.
Our specialists manage kidney stones, infections and obstructions, providing treatments such as lithotripsy (stone fragmentation) and minimally invasive surgery.
Urologists can help with erectile dysfunction, Peyronie’s disease, and male infertility, offering medical therapy or surgical options where appropriate.
Female patients are supported with care for recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs), bladder weakness, and pelvic floor disorders.
Because many urological symptoms overlap between conditions, your consultant will carry out a full evaluation to identify the root cause and develop a targeted treatment plan.
The cost of a private urology appointment depends on the type of consultation, investigations required, and whether follow-up care or procedures are needed. Initial consultations with our urologists start at around £200.
At Circle Reading Hospital, you’ll always receive a clear and transparent quotation before your appointment. Consultant fees, diagnostic tests, and any treatment plans will be explained in full.
If you have private medical insurance, most policies cover urology consultations and diagnostic tests when referred by your GP. For self-pay patients, Circle Health Group offers flexible payment plans, allowing you to spread the cost of care over a period that suits you.
Your first appointment at Circle Reading Hospital’s Urology Clinic will be a comprehensive consultation designed to assess your symptoms and medical history.
Most initial consultations last between 30 and 45 minutes, giving you time to discuss your concerns in detail.
During your visit you can expect:
Your consultant will ask about your symptoms, how long you’ve experienced them, and any relevant medical history.
Depending on your symptoms, your consultant may examine your abdomen, kidneys, or (for men) the prostate.
You may be asked to provide a urine sample or undergo blood tests or imaging studies. Some diagnostic tests can be performed on the same day.
Once your consultant has reviewed your results, they will discuss next steps, whether that’s medication, monitoring, lifestyle advice, or further investigation.
Throughout your appointment, you’ll have the opportunity to ask questions and understand your condition clearly. You’ll also receive written notes summarising your consultation and any recommended tests or follow-ups.
An initial consultation with a urologist typically lasts 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the complexity of your symptoms. Follow-up appointments are usually shorter, around 20 minutes.
If additional investigations are required (such as an ultrasound, cystoscopy, or blood tests), your consultant may arrange these on the same day or at a convenient time soon after.
At Circle Reading Hospital, we aim to provide a seamless experience. Many patients appreciate being able to have their consultation, diagnostic tests, and treatment plan arranged in one visit, saving both time and stress.
