About Us

Children’s Memorial Hermann Hospital and its affiliated physicians have an exceptional history of treating pediatric urology patients, including:

First in Texas to perform urological pediatric robotic surgery
Only hospital in Houston offering single-incision surgery for children with congenital urologic abnormalities
Only hospital in Houston to offer 3-D deflectable tip laparoscopy

Training in Advanced Surgical Techniques

The Memorial Hermann Surgical Innovation & Robotics Institute, one of the largest training sites for robotic surgery in the nation and the only one in the southwest, attracts pediatric urologists from around the world who come to train in the advanced surgical techniques used daily in the hospital. Minimally invasive procedures may provide greater anatomical magnification, shorter recovery, smaller incision, better cosmesis and less pain.

A Collaborative Approach

The unique collaboration between Children’s Memorial Hermann Hospital and UTHealth Medical School provides patients with excellent urologic care, advanced technology and specialized minimally invasive surgeries unavailable at other hospitals. Our family-centered approach to care provides high patient satisfaction.

Pediatric Urologist

Our affiliated, fellowship-trained pediatric urologist specializes in robotic and laparoscopic treatment of congenital urologic abnormalities and treats a complete range of conditions that affect the kidneys, bladder and groin area.
