Pediatric Urology at Wellstar Children’s Hospital of Georgia

Specialized care for babies, children, teens and young adults with genital and urinary tract conditions

Expert, compassionate care for children

At Wellstar Children’s Hospital of Georgia, our highly skilled pediatric urologists diagnose and treat urinary and genital conditions. Urinary conditions impact the bladder, kidneys, ureters and urethra. These may include bedwetting, incontinence (uncontrolled leaking of urine) or other disorders. We also treat conditions of the penis, testicles and vagina.

A renowned team makes a difference

Our pediatric urologists have specialized training to care for the unique medical needs of children. They’re also kind, sensitive and know how to put your child at ease. They work with other specialists to deliver world-class pediatric urology care. Our team offers:

  • Family-centered care: We treat our patients and their families with dignity and respect, keeping communications open and involving families in planning and care decisions. This leads to better care and outcomes. For example, our enuresis (bedwetting) clinic works to identify the cause and find the best solution—together with the family.
  • Individualized care: We create care plans to treat your child’s unique needs.
  • Multidisciplinary care: Your child’s care team may include pediatric urologists, surgeons, anesthesiologists, nurses, oncologists, psychologists and other specialists.
  • Surgical technique: We specialize in state-of-the-art surgical procedures, including robotic surgery for children.

Disorders we treat

Our pediatric urologists treat all types of urinary and genital conditions.

Bladder, urinary tract and kidney disorders

  • Bladder exstrophy (bladder is not properly formed from birth)
  • Duplex kidneys
  • Genitourinary tumors
  • Hydronephrosis
  • Kidney stones
  • Recurrent urinary tract infections
  • Ureteropelvic junction blockage
  • Urinary tract conditions that require complete reconstruction surgery
  • Vesicoureteral reflux
  • Wilms tumor (a cancer that starts in the kidneys)

Genital disorders

  • Circumcision
  • Hydroceles
  • Hypospadias
  • Testicular cancer
  • Undescended testicles

Female anatomy

  • Incontinence
  • Labial adhesions
  • Pelvic floor disorders
  • Urethral prolapse

Other urogenital conditions

  • Ambiguous genitalia
  • Anachorism
  • Hernias
  • Polycystic kidney disease

Diagnostic tests and procedures

To diagnose and treat your child’s condition, we perform progressive procedures in our clinics or hospital surgical rooms. These include:

Clinic procedures

  • Circumcisions: We can perform some cases in the clinic.
  • Ultrasonography: To determine the cause of pain, swelling and infection and to evaluate organ damage
  • Urine culture: To analyze the presence of bacteria in urine that causes infection
  • Uroflow/electromyography (EMG), bladder scan and biofeedback: To determine the amount of urine in the bladder before and after voiding and the speed of urine flow. This helps look at the muscles used during voiding.

Radiological and operating room procedures

  • Antegrade and retrograde pyelography: This radiological imaging test helps doctors diagnose hydronephrosis and urinary tract obstructions.
  • Nuclear imaging, MRI and CT: These tests diagnose masses in the urinary tract, kidney stones and renal cysts. They also examine renal (kidney) function.
  • Retrograde urethrogram: This procedure helps doctors evaluate and diagnose urethra complications.
  • Fluoroscopic urodynamic studies (FUDS): These studies look at how well the bladder, sphincters and urethra hold and release urine. They also help determine the reason for leaks or blockages.
  • Voiding cystourethrogram (VCUG): This minimally invasive test helps doctors see your child’s urinary tract and bladder. It helps diagnose vesicoureteral reflux and determine why your child has recurring urinary tract infections. We also use VCUG to find out if anti-reflux surgery was effective and if there are abnormalities or blockages of the urethra.

Pediatric urology surgery procedures

We perform open (traditional) surgery as well as the latest minimally invasive, robotic procedures. These include endoscopy and laparoscopy. During minimally invasive procedures, doctors use small incisions, thin tubes and tiny cameras to see inside the body and perform procedures.

  • Pediatric robotics: We have the only fellowship-trained, specialized pediatric urologist in the area who performs robotic procedures for children.
  • Pediatric minimally invasive surgery (MIS): Our surgeons perform many diagnostic procedures and urological surgeries with minimally invasive techniques. We use the body’s natural openings or small incisions, which result in less pain and quicker recovery times.
