What does a urologist do?
Urologists evaluate and treat conditions of the urinary tract (kidneys, ureters, bladder, urethra) in patients of all genders, and conditions of the male reproductive system. Common reasons people see a urologist: blood in the urine, recurrent urinary tract infections, kidney stones, urinary incontinence, prostate problems (benign enlargement or screening for prostate cancer), and bladder cancer screening.
Treatment ranges from medications and lifestyle changes to in-office procedures (cystoscopy, prostate biopsy) and surgery (kidney stone removal, prostatectomy, reconstructive work). Many urologists sub-specialise in oncology, female pelvic medicine, men's health, paediatric urology, or stone disease.
When to see a urologist
Most patients arrive on a referral from their primary-care provider after an initial workup. Reasons to ask for a referral: blood in the urine, repeated urinary infections, a kidney stone episode, persistent urinary urgency or leakage that affects daily life, an abnormal prostate exam or PSA value, or trouble emptying the bladder.
If you have severe flank pain that won't ease, blood in the urine with fever, or are unable to urinate, that's an emergency-department situation, not a directory search. Routine concerns are appropriately handled with a scheduled urology visit after your primary-care provider has run initial tests.

Frequently asked
How many urologists are listed in Pinehurst, NC?
Our directory currently lists 5 NPI-verified urologists in Pinehurst, NC. This count updates as new providers are approved, so the number reflects current inventory rather than a static snapshot.
Do these urologists accept TRICARE or military insurance?
Medicare is the primary insurer for a large share of patients in the Pinehurst area. Most practices accept Medicare; supplemental and Medicare Advantage acceptance varies by plan. Confirm before booking.
Do I need a referral to see a urologist?
Many PPO plans allow self-referral, but HMOs typically require one. Even when not required, going through your primary-care provider first is useful — they can run initial labs (urinalysis, basic kidney function, PSA) so the urology visit can focus on next steps rather than baseline tests.
What should I expect at a first urology visit?
A urology visit usually starts with a detailed history and a focused physical exam. Many practices collect a urine sample at check-in. Depending on the reason for the visit, the urologist may order imaging (ultrasound or CT), additional labs, or schedule a cystoscopy (a brief in-office camera exam of the bladder). Most first visits don't involve a procedure beyond the physical exam.
Is urology care covered by insurance?
Yes, in nearly all cases when the urologist is in-network and the visit is medically necessary. Confirm in-network status before booking, especially if you're scheduling a procedure rather than just a consultation, since facility fees can differ. The provider profiles below list accepted insurance.
