About The Genitourinary Reconstruction Urologist (GURS)
Position
The faculty member will be an integral part of the rapidly
expanding urology practice at UT Health Austin, a part of UT
Medicine, the clinical practice of Dell Medical School. The current
urologic service is composed of two specialists in minimally
invasive surgery / endourology, two urologist oncologists and one
Male Sexual Health urologist.
The individual should have interest in developing an ambitious
specialty-focused urology practice in which un-insured,
under-insured patients, and fully insured patients all receive care
in the same clinic. We see referrals from other urologists locally
and regionally. Additionally, the applicant should have an interest
in multidisciplinary complex pelvic reconstruction, as our primary
inpatient facility is home to plastic surgeons, colorectal surgeons
and gynecologists who collaborate with urologists in care of
patients with challenging reconstruction needs. Outpatient surgery
is performed in the UT Heath Austin Ambulatory Surgery Center, a
new state-of-the art facility.
With regards to research, opportunities abound for collaborative
research with faculty at The University of Texas at Austin. With
regards to teaching, medical students are frequently assigned to
our service, and we host a urologic resident from the military
program in San Antonio year-round.
