Tidelands Health Urology now open and serving patients

Tidelands Health has opened a new medical practice to serve the urology needs of the fast-growing Grand Strand region.

Tidelands Health Urology, located at Waccamaw Medical Park West, 4040 Highway 17, Suite 205, Murrells Inlet, features three urology specialists. All are accepting new patients.

Urologists specialize in diagnosing and treating a variety of conditions affecting the urinary system, which includes the bladder, kidneys, ureters and urethra, as well as conditions affecting the reproductive organs and adrenal glands.

Patients turn to the specialized care provided by a urologist for help with conditions such as frequent urinary tract infections, urinary incontinence, painful bladder, infertility, kidney stones, enlarged prostate, certain cancers and more. Many of these conditions become more common as a person ages.
