Dr. Hollowell sees patients from birth through adolescence.

My child was diagnosed with hydronephrosis before birth. Can Dr. Hollowell help?

Dr. Hollowell will discuss findings with you and outline any recommended next steps, which may include further testing or a treatment plan. Bringing prior ultrasounds or referral notes will help streamline the visit.
Does Dr. Hollowell perform minimally invasive surgery on children?
Pediatric urologic surgery has advanced significantly, and many procedures can now be performed using minimally invasive or laparoscopic techniques. Whether a minimally invasive approach is appropriate depends on your child's specific condition, age, and anatomy. Dr. Hollowell will discuss all surgical options with you before any procedure is scheduled.
