Multispecialty care team for urologic cancer

A cancer diagnosis can feel overwhelming. But you’re not alone. You have a multispecialty care team dedicated to your care. We specialize in men’s health and offer personalized treatment options for prostate, bladder and testicular cancer and other urologic conditions. Urologists also provide care for men and women diagnosed with bladder cancer.

At Ascension Saint Agnes Hospital, your cancer care team may include urologists and urogynecologists. At regular meetings, your care team will review your care plan and monitor your progress. We focus on care to help improve your pelvic health. As part of our multispecialty team approach to cancer care, we also provide other supportive care services, such as pelvic physical therapy. If you are interested in participating in cancer care clinical trials, ask your oncologist to discuss your options. We can work to help connect you to ongoing clinical trials that may be right for you.
