UROLOGY

UROLOGIC CARE FOR GAY AND BISEXUAL MEN

Featuring: Channa A. Amarasekera, MD

Episode Summary

Channa A. Amarasekera, MD, director of the Northwestern Medicine Gay and Bisexual Men’s Urology Program, is a pioneer in the research of health outcomes in urology for men who have sex with men (MSM) and has developed a framework for how to optimize urologic care for this patient population.
 
According to Dr. Amarasekera, care teams typically counsel and treat men under the assumption that they do not have sex with other men. However, MSM may have different urological concerns and priorities than heterosexual men. Here, he discusses those differences and his team’s approach to urologic care for these patients.
