UROLOGIC ONCOLOGY

Welcome to the website of the Division of Urology of Wyckoff Heights Medical Center. At Wyckoff, our aim is to treat patients in an effective manner utilizing the latest medical knowledge and techniques enabling us to provide the very best outcomes for our patients. Our goal is to deliver these services in a clean, modern facility where the patient's needs are our first priority.

Our department consists of Board Certified Urologists who provide outpatient care in their private offices as well as in the ambulatory care hospital outpatient facilities. For patients requiring hospitalization, their inpatient care is supervised by our attending urologists. All patients are treated equally regardless of financial considerations. Patients requiring immediate care are seen in our emergency department, both pediatric and adult. Those deemed ill enough are admitted, others are referred for follow up in our ambulatory facilities.
At Wyckoff Heights Medical Center, we have a comprehensive array of the latest medical equipment and can provide for any and all Urologic illnesses. Kidney Stones are treated with the latest laser technology so that surgery for kidney stones is rarely performed. Prostate problems are treated in the least invasive method possible, using the most recent technology available.

Wyckoff Heights Medical Center ancillary departments, such as Radiology, are equipped to perform any and all studies relative to urology.
