Genitourinary Cancer

Compassionate Genitourinary Cancer Care

The sensitive nature of genitourinary cancers and how they can impact your well-being makes it uncomfortable for some people to talk about them. But you have nothing to be embarrassed about. Our specialists treat you with respect and understanding. We address all of your concerns and help you find a path forward. 

Genitourinary Cancer Services We Provide

When you come to UMass Memorial, you receive comprehensive care. We offer advanced services that lead to effective treatment and excellent outcomes. 

Services we offer include: 

• Genitourinary pathology: Our team includes doctors who specialize in analyzing genitourinary tissue samples to confirm or rule out cancer. This expertise helps us make an accurate diagnosis.
• Minimally invasive surgery: For prostate cancer, we use robotic surgical technologies. They enable us to remove cancerous tissue with incredible accuracy. This approach also helps you recover quickly and more comfortably.
• Radiation oncology: We are one of the few programs in Central Massachusetts and beyond offering radiation therapy for genitourinary cancers. You have access to sophisticated options, such as stereotactic radiosurgery, which delivers a targeted and high dose of radiation.
• Reconstructive urology: After removing large or deep-seated cancers, reconstruction may be necessary. Our team uses advanced techniques to repair affected areas and restore function.

Inclusive Genitourinary Cancer Treatment

Our clinics and hospitals welcome gender-diverse patients. We pride ourselves in fostering a supportive, nonjudgmental environment. This approach makes it easier to have honest conversations about your gender expression and how we can help you.

Expert treatment for genitourinary cancers is available at the UMass Memorial Medical Center in Worcester. We communicate with your referring provider to ensure seamlessly coordinated care.
