Cystoscopy, stone, and vasectomy scheduling at Southwest Urology Specialists
Scheduling a procedure at Southwest Urology Specialists — a cystoscopy, a stone surgery like ureteroscopy or lithotripsy, a TURP for an enlarged prostate, or a vasectomy — runs on faxed orders, consents, and any pre-operative clearance. A complete procedure packet in one fax means scheduling is not chasing a missing clearance. Put the patient identifiers on every page so the case is matched.
Renal ultrasound and CT urogram reads at Southwest Urology Specialists
Because Southwest Urology Specialists relies on scope and imaging findings, a cystoscopy note, a urodynamics result, and a CT-urogram report are routine faxes on a case. A significant finding — a bladder tumor seen on cystoscopy or an obstructing stone — should be flagged. Keep the confirmation so the chart shows the study was returned.
