What are your tips for finding a good urologist?
Share your tips with fellow community members looking for a bladder cancer-specific urologist. If you haven’t found a good one, what challenges have you faced?
We recently asked our facebook communit'y "what characteristics do you look for in a good urologist" some of the responses we received were:
- "When they talk to me as a human being not all medical terminology"
- "Knowledge, humor, trustworthiness"
- "Bedside manner, keeping me informed about treatment plan and what to expect."
- "Availability when you need help."
- "Honest and treat a patient like human not like a subject"
- "When it comes time for a Cystoscopy, a urologists "touch" can make the difference between a minor inconvenience and really ruining your day (or longer)."
It is also nice if a cysto has a video attached to it so one can see for oneself
