A Resource for Primary Care Physicians Treating Common Urological Conditions

Verathon^® is pleased to offer the Urology for Primary Care manual edited by Dr. Richard Pelman, M.D. This manual, written specifically with Primary Care physicians in mind, details many of the “tools of the trade” employed by Urologists.

Due to the recent advent of new pharmaceutical treatments, it now falls within the scope of the Primary Care physician to initiate diagnosis and treament of many common urological conditions. The Urology for Primary Care manual is a resource for the Primary Care physician who wishes to introduce Urology into the practice, but may not have had the opportunity to receive focused training in urological tools.

Topics in this edition include bladder outlet obstruction (BOO), prostatitis, erectile dysfunction, hematuria, urinary calculus disease, and overactive bladder (OAB) – conditions that may frequently be encountered in Primary Care.

Author and editor Dr. Richard Pelman is an Associate of Bellevue Urology Associates Inc. in Bellevue, Washington and a Clinical Professor of Urology at the University of Washington School of Medicine in Seattle, Washington.
