- Primary CareIt is Wichita Urology’s policy that we are only able to process labs ordered by your Wichita Urology physician. Orders from outside physicians must be done at a primary care office or outside reference lab such as LabCorp or Quest Diagnostics.
- Male InfertilityWichita Urology Group’s board-certified, compassionate team of physicians are also skilled surgeons with vast experience in robotic and minimally invasive surgery, prostate disease, male infertility, erectile dysfunction and all facets of the male and female urinary system, including incontinence, stone disease and urinary oncology.
- Erectile Dysfunction
- Urinary IncontinenceDr. Pham specializes in female pelvic disorders including pelvic organ prolapse, overactive bladder, urinary incontinence, and pelvic mesh complications. She is skilled in vaginal, laparoscopic, and robotic surgeries.
- GynecologyThe field of Urogynecology is a subspecialty within Obstetrics and Gynecology and is dedicated to the study and treatment of pelvic floor disorders in women. Urogynecologists have completed medical school and a four-year residency in Obstetrics and Gynecology, or Urology. These doctors become specialists with additional training and experience in the evaluation and treatment of conditions that affect the female pelvic organs, and the muscles and connective tissue that support the organs. Many have completed formal fellowships (additional training after residency) that focused on the surgical and non-surgical treatment of non-cancerous gynecologic problems.

- EndometriosisThis includes the use of the da Vinci surgical system to perform laparascopic surgery. Robotic surgery can be used in gynecology to treat fibroids, abnormal periods, endometriosis, ovarian tumors, pelvic prolapse, and female cancers. Using the robotic system, gynecologists can perform hysterectomies, myomectomies, and lymph node biopsies. Robotic surgery is used in urology to remove the prostate gland for cancer, repair or removal of kidneys and repair bladder abnormalities.

- Urinary Tract InfectionBlood in the urine can be a sign of an underlying disease or it can be something that happens briefly and then goes away. The most serious cause of blood in the urine is cancer, usually cancer of the prostate, bladder or kidney. A very frequent cause of blood in the urine is a urinary tract infection. Finally, occasionally blood in the urine appears once and then goes away and the causes of these episodes are frequently unknown. If you have concerns about blood in your urine you should schedule an appointment to be seen.
- Prostate CancerThe Prostate Specific Antigen screening is a blood test used to identify elevated levels of this naturally occurring enzyme. High levels of this antigen can indicate prostate cancer.
- UltrasoundA procedure used to formulate an image of internal body tissue. It involves the insertion of a sound-wave emitting probe into the rectum (also called an endorectal ultrasound).
- MRIMagnetic resonance imaging; a means of producing cross-sectional images of the body to characterize tissues by the way the electrons in the tissue move in response to a strong magnetic field
- X-Rays
- Computed TomographyIf you have a CT or lab work done at our office, you will receive a bill from Wichita Radiological Group for the reading/interpretation of your CT scan. There are also some lab tests that are sent to Quest Diagnostics and biopsies may be sent to Heartland Pathology, so it’s possible you will receive a separate bill for these services.

- LaparoscopyA technique of surgery that utilizes a camera and scope and specialized instruments that allow the surgeon to use small incisions (about half an inch long) to perform surgery that would otherwise require larger incisions. This type of surgery often offers the patients a quicker recovery with less pain than surgery with larger incisions.
