Our Doctors
The physicians at The Prostate Center of Austin represent some of the finest specialists in Central Texas. It is our goal to provide our patients with not only the highest level of medical and surgical treatment, but also with the value of a close patient-physician relationship. You will also benefit from the knowledge of our group as it is our practice philosophy to consult with each other to consistently provide the highest level of treatment for all patients. If you need surgery, our physicians will make sure you are placed into the hands of the surgeon who is best suited for your procedure. This group philosophy and team approach also means that if you have an urgent need we will find you the most available doctor to be sure you are taken care of.
The Prostate Center of Austin has created Centers of Excellence to provide a higher level of care to each patient. This means, the doctor you see spends the majority, and in some cases all, of their time taking care of patients with a medical need similar to your own. While the Prostate Center of Austin provides services for all Urologic needs, these Centers of Excellence have been created to provide a more focused approach to your care.
