Get expert urological treatment without leaving home with video visits

When it comes to getting urological treatment, it’s important to know that many conditions are more common and more treatable than you think. And now, urology video visits make it easy to get the treatment you need from the comfort of home.

Just like an office visit, urology video visits bring you face-to-face with a board-certified urologist, who specializes in treating urological conditions in men and women. During your appointment, your urologist will listen to your health concerns and symptoms, ask questions to understand your medical history and work with you to create a tailored treatment plan. Video visits are billed the same as in-person visits.

Now is always the time to take care of yourself. Don’t wait. Easy access to quality urological care is at your fingertips.

 Schedule a urology video visit
Do urology video visits replace in-person appointments for urological care?

No. Video visits just give you another way to conveniently and meaningfully connect with your urologist. Depending on your treatment and care needs, your urologist will work with you to determine the right combination of in-clinic, phone and video visits.

 How do you get started with video visits for urology? It’s as easy as 1-2-3.
  1. Make an appointment online for a day and time that works for you. You can also call your local clinic to set up an appointment. Your appointment details, the link to access your video visit, and tools for modifying your appointment will be available through your HealthPartners online account.
  2. Fill out this consent (PDF) and have it ready for your appointment. This gives us the ability to use your information to coordinate care, treatment and more.
  3. A few minutes prior to your appointment, sign in to your HealthPartners online account and go to your upcoming appointments. Select the Appointment details link and then Begin video visit. If you don’t have a HealthPartners online account, are 13 to 17 years old, or are the parent of a patient 13 to 17 years old, your doctor will text you a link to access your video visit at the time of your appointment.

That’s it! Your doctor will join the session when your appointment begins.
