Frequently Asked Questions
What ages does Dr. Williamson treat?
Dr. Williamson sees pediatric patients from birth through late adolescence. This includes newborns diagnosed with congenital urological conditions as well as teenagers managing ongoing urinary concerns. Families are encouraged to call the office to confirm scheduling for their child's age group.
My child has had repeated urinary tract infections. Should I see a pediatric urologist?
Recurrent UTIs in children can sometimes signal an underlying structural issue, such as vesicoureteral reflux or a bladder abnormality. A pediatric urologist like Dr. Williamson can evaluate imaging and test results to determine whether further investigation or treatment is needed. Early assessment can help prevent kidney damage over time.
What is hypospadias and does Dr. Williamson treat it?
Hypospadias is a congenital condition in boys where the urethral opening forms on the underside of the penis rather than at the tip. It is one of the more common conditions managed in pediatric urology. Surgical correction is typically performed in early childhood, and Dr. Williamson performs reconstructive procedures to restore normal urinary and, later, sexual function.
How do I know if my child's bedwetting requires medical attention?
Bedwetting is common in young children and often resolves on its own, but persistence beyond age seven or a sudden return after a dry period may warrant evaluation. Dr. Williamson can assess whether an underlying cause, such as bladder overactivity or a structural concern, is contributing. Treatment options range from behavioral strategies to medication depending on the diagnosis.
Does Dr. Williamson perform minimally invasive surgery on children?
Yes, minimally invasive and laparoscopic techniques are used when appropriate for pediatric urological procedures. Smaller incisions generally mean less postoperative discomfort and faster recovery for young patients. Dr. Williamson will discuss the most suitable surgical approach based on your child's specific condition and anatomy.
