We are proud to welcome these three OUTSTANDING future urologists to our @HMethodistUro family! 🌟 #auamatch #uromatch2026

Excited to get hands-on with the Holmium Potent laser at our HOLEP live surgery course in Cairo, October 4-5 with Dr. Liu and Dr.Loay Ayman @HMethodistUro

Burdensome #LUTS from Underactive bladder impair quality of life. Poor understanding of UAB mechanisms limit therapeutic options for these patients. As corresponding PI, I am pleased to share that @rosekhavari (Co-PI) and I @RachelHigh_DO were awarded a 5-year NIH/NIA R01 to assess Supraspinal Mechanisms Involved in Underactive Bladder with our key investigators @RRGonzalezMD , @jjkutch , @BetsySalazarPhD . this important study will redefine how we understand and ultimately treat this poorly understood syndrome .

Excellence in patient care starts with exceptional physicians. We're proud to announce that 12 of our faculty have been named 2026 Top Doctors by Houstonia Magazine, highlighting their dedication to clinical excellence, compassionate care, and advancing urology. #BCMUrology

Underactive bladder is a heterogenous and poorly understood symptom complex that is very frustrating for both patients and urologists alike. Grateful to work alongside such brilliant researchers to explore the next frontier in treatments @RachelHigh_DO @rosekhavari @BetsySalazarPhD #rTMS #UAB #urinaryretention #R01

Weekend update: So honored to teach yoga, breathwork, and ergonomics to healthcare pros @MethodistHosp Huge thanks to everyone for support. 💖 @RRGonzalezMD @AkhilMuthigi @KKseattle @HMethodistUro @JulieNStewartMD

ASK YOUR DOCTOR ABOUT PSA TESTING A PSA blood test led to my prostate cancer diagnosis at age 35. Larry Lipshultz, MD, was my urologist when I was diagnosed. In this excerpt, I ask him what he wants men to know about the importance of PSA testing. PSA stands for prostate-specific antigen. It is measured through a simple blood test and can provide important information about the prostate. A PSA result alone cannot diagnose cancer because noncancerous conditions can also raise it. A baseline measurement and changes over time can help a doctor assess risk and determine whether follow-up is appropriate. Dr. Lipshultz shares the approach used in his clinical practice, including beginning PSA testing at about age 40. Current AUA/SUO guidance emphasizes shared decision-making. Clinicians may offer a baseline PSA test between ages 45 and 50. Screening should be offered between ages 40 and 45 for people at increased risk because of Black ancestry, certain inherited genetic mutations or a strong family history of prostate cancer. Do not wait for symptoms to start the conversation. Ask your primary care doctor or urologist: What is my individual risk? When should I have a baseline PSA? How should my results be followed over time? Dr. Larry Lipshultz is a board-certified urologist, Professor of Urology, and Chief of the Division of Male Reproductive Medicine and Surgery in the Scott Department of Urology at Baylor College of Medicine.
