Introduction of the Department

The Department of Urology, FJMU/ SGRH was established in 1998 with OPD based services only. During early phase, indoor patient beds were shared with Surgery Department. In 2002, a formal Urology Department was raised with 8 beds and an independent Urology Theater. The department was further upgraded and space was allocated for setting up of a well-equipped Urodynamic lab. The capacity of Department was further expanded to 16 beds in 2010. In 2018, as part of a massive turnaround, a new state of the art Urology Department started it operations, with a new building having facility of 30 beds for admied patients, an Investigative Lab, a Procedure Room, an Auditorium and a Lithotripsy Suit.

Once all facilities are fully functional, the department aims to start kidney transplantation procedures in near future.
