About Us

Urology is the branch of medicine that focuses on the health of the urinary system (in both men and women) and the male reproductive organs. This includes vital organs such as the kidneys, bladder, and prostate.
Our department established in year 2001 as part of the hospital’s expansion into specialised care. First full time superspeciality department in the institution. Initially operated with single consultant doing basic urology procedures but now evolved into full time teaching department with four qualified urologists managing wide urological conditions with acceptable outcomes. Laid foundation for advanced urology care in the region. Started as teaching department with intake of 3 postgraduate students every year from 2024/25.
Our department specializes in treating a wide array of conditions, ranging from common ailments to complex, life-saving procedures:

  • Kidney & Bladder Stones: Utilizing advanced laser and "keyhole" (minimally invasive) technologies to remove stones without large incisions.
  • Uro-Oncology: Providing expert surgical care for cancers of the prostate, kidney, and bladder.
  • Prostate Health: Advanced management of BPH (enlarged prostate) and other age-related concerns for men.
  • Reconstructive Urology: Correcting structural issues of the urinary tract caused by injury or birth conditions.
  • Pediatric Urology: Specialized care for children with urological birth defects.
Being the sole urological provider under Ayushman Bharat- Arogya Karnataka scheme free of cost for below poverty line population in Kolar, we take our responsibility to the community seriously. We combine the precision of modern technology with the empathy required for rural healthcare.
  • Local Access to Advanced Technology: Patients no longer need to travel long distances for complex procedures. We bring state-of-the-art Endourology directly to your doorstep, ensuring faster recovery and less pain.
  • Expert Academic Faculty: As a teaching department, our patients benefit from a team of specialists who are not only practitioners but also educators and researchers staying at the forefront of medical progress.
  • Affordable & Equitable Care: We believe quality healthcare is a right, not a privilege. Our services are designed to be accessible and evidence-based, ensuring every patient receives the safest and most effective treatment possible.
  • Comprehensive Safety: We follow strict international clinical pathways and antibiotic policies, ensuring that patient safety and infection control are our highest priorities.
