With the evolution of the American healthcare and the reorganization of many regional healthcare systems, there are ever-increasing demands for healthcare access. As a result, primary care providers are increasingly caring for broader spectrum of disease, including urologic disease. Men are disproportionately afflicted by urologic disease, and “Men’s Health” is an established medical arena where specialized knowledge is required. The diagnosis and management of Men’s Health diseases are continually evolving and are heavily influenced by advances in diagnostic technology, medications, surgical devices. The greatest challenge that care providers face is staying up to date with the changes in this field, thereby assuring state-of-the-art care for their patients.

An internationally acclaimed faculty has been assembled to provide this update, with presentations on topics such as prostate screening and treatment, testosterone deficiency and the controversy of testosterone replacement, male urinary dysfunction, kidney and bladder pathology, sexual dysfunction, male infertility and the changing influence of marijuana, and genital pain syndromes. During the plenary sessions, attendees will have the opportunity to participate in case discussions and question-and-answer sessions.
