Urology

What sets Arkansas Children's Urology apart?

• Each year our service cares for children through more than 7,500 visits for urologic treatment.
• It is the only hospital in Arkansas with three surgeons trained to use the da Vinci Surgical Robot for pediatric urology procedures. This means more children have the opportunity to recover from urologic surgeries with less pain, shorter recovery times and minimal scarring.
• Arkansas Children's Urology treats large volumes of issues that are mostly seen in the pediatric population – hypospadias, circumcisions, undescended testicles and bedwetting among them.
• We also offer Telehealth visits in the Springdale, Jonesboro, Texarkana, and Fort Smith areas. We believe that telehealth saves time and money for the families by increasing the ease of access to Arkansas Children's Hospital while providing high-quality care. 
• We have dedicated pediatric anesthesiologists, trained in delivering exactly the pain control your child needs.
• Our specialized equipment offers children a more comfortable experience, from clinical exam to surgical suite and home care.
• Ongoing research means our pediatric urologists are at the forefront of developments that will give each child the best chances for better urologic function.
• We offer prenatal consults for congenital urologic disorders diagnosed before the baby is born. If available for the family, we offer these consults as a video visit with our provider from the comfort of their home.

Your Visit to the Urology Clinic

We understand that seeking treatment for a urological disorder can be stressful. Our Urology team provides families with every resource possible to make their treatment easier. Here's what you can expect.

If you're visiting the Urology Clinic, you may have been referred by your child's primary pediatrician. We will have background on your child, but will appreciate any context you can provide.

Pre-Visit

• It will be helpful to complete our standard medical history forms.
• Please make sure you bring a list of your child's (the patient's) medications including medication name, dosage, and how often it's taken.
• Please make sure you have your insurance card, ID, and any co-pay.
• Ask your child’s primary care physician to fax us records about your child’s health to include test results related to the reason your child is coming in to see Urology.

During the Visit

• Please arrive 15 minutes prior to your appointment.
• Check-in at the Welcome touch screen in the clinic.
• After registering in Urology Clinic with our Patient Access Representative, you will be assisted with signing up for MyChart. At Arkansas Children's Hospital, MyChart is the secure online access to portions of your child's medical records. You can securely communicate with the health care team about:
  • Your child's condition or test results
  • Request prescription renewals
  • View and track your child's immunization record
• A nurse or tech will call you and your child back to an exam room where your child's weight, height, and blood pressure will be taken. Your child also may be asked to urinate in a cup in a private bathroom, with your assistance if needed. Get more information about common urology tests and procedures.
• A Urology provider will meet with you to go over family health history and perform a physical, which will be gentle and non-invasive. It will include a thorough exam of your child's abdomen, pelvis and genitals.
• After the visit, you will check-out at the front desk to receive a summary of your visit and to schedule a future appointment if needed.

After the Visit

If you have additional questions after your visit, you can call the Urology nurses’ line directly at 501-364-2632 or send a message to our team through MyChart.
