Urology
Urologists at Citizens Specialty Hospital provide care for both male and female patients impacted by problems with their urinary tract. We also care for diseases that impact men’s reproductive organs. Our urology department is headed by Dr Mallikarjuna Reddy who is very well experienced in using minimally-invasive surgical techniques and seek to offer treatments with effective results and fast recovery times. We stay in close contact with the international urology community and work consistently to update our clinical scope and therapy offerings.
