Dr. Shumyle Alam is our new Pediatric Board Certified Urologist for El Paso Children’s Physician Specialists
The Pediatric Urology Clinic is one of the few in the United States that focus on the prevention of renal injury from Congenital Anomalies of the Kidney and Urinary Tract (CAKUT).
The clinic helps protect children’s kidney function as they go through life. Treatments include both surgical and medical management for children as well as long term follow-up and multidisciplinary care. The clinic is supported by specialists in pediatric urology, pediatric surgery, nephrology, pediatric neurosurgery, as well as by pediatricians, dieticians, and social workers. The clinic also provides a transition plan to adult specialists as children reach adulthood.
Urology is a specialized field of medicine that deals with the urinary and reproductive systems, including their development and function before and after birth. The urinary system eliminates waste in the form of urine, consisting of the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra. A doctor who diagnoses and treats conditions that affect these areas is known as a urologist.
Parents who have children with conditions related to urology may feel worried or anxious about their child’s health and well-being. However, they can take comfort in knowing that there are highly skilled and trained medical professionals available to help.
Pediatric urologists are dedicated to providing the best possible care and treatment to children with urologic and genital conditions. They possess advanced knowledge and skills that enable them to diagnose and treat a wide range of conditions, from common problems like bedwetting and urinary tract infections to complex conditions such as hypospadias and undescended testicles.
These medical professionals work closely with parents to ensure that they are informed and involved in their child’s care. They understand the importance of providing personalized care to each child and tailor their treatment plans accordingly.
