Multidisciplinary UTI Center

Complex and Recurrent Urinary Tract Infection (cr-UTI) Center

Recurrent and complicated urinary tract infections are frustrating, disruptive, and often poorly served by a one-size-fits-all approach. Our Complex and Recurrent UTI Center brings together urology and infectious disease specialists in a coordinated approach dedicated to patients whose infections don't respond to standard treatment or keep coming back. Rather than repeating the same antibiotic course that hasn't worked, our team investigates the underlying anatomic and microbial contributors to recurrence and builds an individualized diagnostic and treatment plan grounded in the latest evidence.

Patients referred to the cr-UTI Center benefit from close collaboration between urologic and infectious disease expertise at every step, from evaluation to tailored prevention strategies. Our goal is not just to treat the current infection, but to break the cycle of recurrence and help patients get back to living without the constant threat of the next UTI.
