A first visit includes a detailed medical and urologic history, a physical exam (which may include a prostate exam for men), and a urine sample. The urologist may order imaging (ultrasound, CT scan) or schedule a cystoscopy (a scope to look inside the bladder) depending on your symptoms. They will explain findings and discuss treatment options ranging from lifestyle changes and medication to surgical procedures.
Ask which hospital system your new doctor is affiliated with before your first visit. Referrals within UCLA Health, Cedars-Sinai, or Keck stay inside those networks, and crossing between them can mean starting over with new patient paperwork.
