A Urologist is a specialist doctor/physician; an expert in a particular branch of medicine that focuses on the urinary tracts, including kidney and bladder of males and females.
Urology also includes the sexual health and reproductive system of males and is classified as a surgical sub-specialty.
For a doctor/physician to practice as a Urologist, s/he must undergo specialist training and undertake further education in a variety of medical sub-specialties including but not limited to the knowledge of internal medicine, pediatrics and gynaecology.
Urology training is part of the Royal Australasian College of Surgeon's new Surgical Education and Training (SET) program. Under the SET program, urology training will be a minimum of six years of training.
First year studies (SET 1) is typically a year of introductory surgical training. SET 2 is a recognised year of surgery in general and SET 3-6 are the years of pure urology specialist surgical training.
