Sub-internship in Urologic Surgery

Catalog description

Students will participate in the diagnosis, management, and surgical treatment of a broad range urologic disorders in adults and children. In addition to a busy general urology practice, Duke provides state-of-the-art, specialized care for urinary stones, infertility, reconstruction, oncology and pediatric urology. Surgical experiences include open, endoscopic, robotic, microscopic, and minimally invasive surgical techniques.
