What is urology?

Urology encompasses the treatment of the male and female urinary tract, as well as the male reproductive organs.

Some of the common urology conditions our providers can treat include:

  • Cancer (prostate, bladder, testicular)
  • Enlarged Prostate (BPH)
  • Erectile Dysfunction (ED)
  • Urinary Catheter Management
  • Hematuria
  • Interstitial Cystits
  • Kidney, Ureteral, and Bladder Stones
  • Low Testosterone (Low T)
  • Male infertility
  • Male and Female Urinary Incontinence
  • Neurogenic and Overactive Bladder
  • Peyronie’s Disease
  • Prostatitis
  • Scrotal Pain
  • Urinary Retention
  • Urinary Tract Infections (UTI)
  • Vasectomies

Dr. Patterson supports urology needs in our Peoria and Galesburg locations, while Amber Breitzman (APRN) supports urology & sexual health needs in our Peoria location.  We have referral opportunities to other local providers in our Carbondale location.

Considering a vasectomy?

Step 1: Request a consultation with our physicians.

Step 2: Schedule an appointment for the vasectomy.

Vasectomies are offered in the Peoria clinic only.

Before Scheduling an Appointment:

Ask your primary care physician for a referral.
Your primary care provider knows your medical history and may have insight into your condition. He or she can then make the referral to our physicians.

Consult your insurance provider.
If you have insurance, be sure to check your plan to make sure that it covers the referral. Solvera Health accepts most insurance.

Ask friends, family, or coworkers.
If you know anyone who has had a urologic procedure or was treated by a urologist, ask about their experience. The first-hand experience from people you trust can go a long way in understanding your condition and assist in your discussion with our physicians.
