As urologists, our physicians are highly trained to treat disorders of the male and female urinary tract (bladder, ureter, kidney, and urethra) and the male reproductive system. Urology is classified as a surgical subspecialty, but because a variety of clinical problems are encountered when treating urological conditions, knowledge of internal medicine, pediatrics, gynecology, and other specialties is required.

Our medical staff includes the following physicians:

• Stuart Zykorie, M.D.
• Howard R. Lippman, M.D.
• Don L. Berardinucci, M.D.

Drs. Zykorie, Lippman, and Berardinucci are certified by the American Board of Urology.
