Expert urology care in your community.

The Tallwood Urology & Kidney Institute at The Hospital of Central Connecticut offers revolutionary procedures, cutting-edge technology, and a dedicated robotic surgery team. Brought together, they provide our urology patients the same care — and results — as any national medical center, right here in the community. Here, patients receive advanced procedures such as a partial nephrectomy, also known as kidney-sparing surgery, in which the cancerous part of the kidney is removed, leaving the healthy portion. For patients with bladder cancer, a neobladder procedure may be performed, in which a new bladder is fashioned from the patient’s own intestines. These procedures can be done robotically, reducing complications and recovery time. Our specialists are experts in the treatment of conditions including cancer, incontinence, chronic kidney disease, kidney stones, Peyronie’s Disease, erectile dysfunction, and more.
