Our Services
Specialist urological care using advanced, minimally invasive techniques. A GP referral is required for Medicare rebates.
Kidney Conditions & Kidney Stones
Kidney stones affect up to one in ten Australians and are one of the most common reasons for urological referral. North Urology offers the full spectrum of modern stone management — from conservative treatment and metabolic evaluation through to complex minimally invasive surgery — with a focus on rapid recovery and preventing recurrence.
We also assess and manage other kidney conditions including renal masses, hydronephrosis, and recurrent urinary tract infections arising from structural abnormalities. Early investigation is important to protect long-term kidney function.
Prostate Health
Prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in Australian men. North Urology provides a complete, evidence-based service — from initial PSA screening and multiparametric MRI through to prostate biopsy, active surveillance, surgical management, and long-term follow-up care.
We also manage benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), prostatitis, and elevated PSA findings. Our approach is tailored to each patient's age, risk profile, and personal preferences, and follows current USANZ and Cancer Council Australia clinical guidelines.
Haematuria (Blood in the Urine)
Haematuria — blood in the urine — is always clinically significant and should be investigated promptly. It may be visible (frank haematuria) or detected only on urine testing (microscopic haematuria). While many causes are benign, haematuria can be the first and only sign of bladder cancer, renal cell carcinoma, or upper tract urothelial tumour.
At North Urology we conduct a structured haematuria work-up to identify the underlying cause and ensure no significant pathology is overlooked. Investigation is thorough, timely, and guided by current Australian best-practice guidelines.
Urinary Incontinence
Urinary incontinence affects millions of Australians and can profoundly impact confidence, daily activities, and quality of life. It is not an inevitable part of ageing — it is highly treatable. North Urology offers a full range of evidence-based treatments, from pelvic floor physiotherapy and bladder retraining through to minimally invasive surgery.
We manage all types of incontinence including stress urinary incontinence (SUI), urgency incontinence / overactive bladder (OAB), mixed incontinence, post-prostatectomy incontinence in men, and overflow incontinence. Treatment is tailored to the type, severity, and the individual patient's goals.
Bladder Conditions
North Urology manages the full spectrum of bladder disorders with a thorough diagnostic approach and access to all current treatment modalities. Conditions treated include bladder cancer, overactive bladder (OAB), interstitial cystitis / bladder pain syndrome, vesicoureteric reflux, bladder diverticula, and neurogenic bladder.
We work closely with oncology, gynaecology, and colorectal colleagues where complex multi-disciplinary care is required. Bladder cancer surveillance is an important part of our service — regular cystoscopy follow-up is coordinated in line with USANZ and international guidelines.
Vasectomy
Vasectomy is one of the most effective permanent contraceptive methods available, with a failure rate of less than 1 in 2,000. It is a minor day-procedure performed under local anaesthesia with optional sedation. North Urology uses the no-scalpel technique, which reduces the risk of bleeding, infection, and post-operative discomfort compared with conventional methods.
We provide thorough pre-procedure counselling to ensure patients have realistic expectations and are making a fully informed decision. Post-vasectomy semen analysis is arranged at 12 weeks to confirm technical success.
Penile & Scrotal Surgery
North Urology manages a broad range of penile and scrotal conditions with sensitivity, discretion, and surgical expertise. Many of these conditions cause significant anxiety and impact quality of life — we encourage early consultation so effective, evidence-based treatment can be offered promptly.
Conditions treated include Peyronie's disease (penile curvature), phimosis and paraphimosis, hydrocele, epididymal cyst, orchidopexy for undescended testis, testicular torsion (surgical emergency), testicular tumours, varicocele, and erectile dysfunction where surgical management is indicated.
Complex Urethral Surgery
Urethral stricture disease and reconstructive urethral challenges require specialist surgical expertise. North Urology has extensive experience in the assessment and surgical management of complex urethral disease, using modern reconstructive techniques that prioritise long-term functional outcomes and quality of life.
Urethral stricture in men is often under-recognised — its symptoms can easily mimic other voiding conditions. Accurate diagnosis using uroflowmetry, retrograde urethrogram (RUG), and cystoscopy is essential before selecting the most appropriate treatment. Patients referred for a second opinion on previously failed urethral procedures are always welcome.
Voiding Difficulties, Symptoms & Urodynamics
Voiding dysfunction — difficulty starting, maintaining, or completing urination — is a common but often complex urological presentation. Symptoms may arise from bladder outlet obstruction, impaired bladder contractility, neurological conditions, or a combination of factors. Accurate diagnosis before starting treatment is essential, and urodynamic testing plays a central role in understanding what is actually happening during bladder filling and emptying.
North Urology offers a full urodynamic assessment service, including uroflowmetry, post-void residual measurement, filling cystometry, and pressure-flow studies. Results are interpreted in clinical context to guide the most appropriate and targeted management plan for each patient.
