ABOUT UROKINGDOM

November 11th, 2007 by Dr. Hsieh

“My hands are vouchsafed by God. He will treat your disease through my hands, but I do not know to what extent you will be healed. It’s far beyond my knowledge to learn God’s will. So let us pray together now.” A doctor said the above words to his patient before performing an operation. This sounds somewhat sarcastic and yet it is partially true. In the fight against various diseases, humans are still in an uphill struggle to win the war. Owing to our limited capabilities to treat all the copious disorders of the human being, it is normal that doctors should always be in awe of the many diseases which afflict our human condition.

As a result of the innovation in high-tech medical equipment and surgical techniques, the skill in diagnosing and treating urological disease has been enormously improved in the past few years. However, such advanced knowledge is actually not well-known in our daily life. The public still has vague impressions about the science regarding the area “between the navel and the knees”. Sometimes they might even obtain wrong information; that’s the reason why I built this website.

In the future I will introduce some of the most common urological diseases (in English) and you will know the causes, symptoms and signs, available laboratory tests, treatment options, and preventive measures. The website will also provide a comprehensive layout of urological classifications, so that you can find out the information you need easily and efficiently. Most of all, I shall try to make all the articles in this site as clear as possible, and yet still include professional and scientific information. My hope is that this information will help you to recognize the presence of disease quickly and to be better prepared when you seek medical attention. Please do not hesitate to contact your doctor whenever you feel ill!
