In real world practice, results of genomic classifier and/or mpMRI poorly discriminate pathologic upstaging, and results should be taken in the context of other clinical factors when used for clinical decision making. Thank you for a great podium @2bens #AUA26

“I’m weary. There’s only so many times you can walk in the room and tell someone they’re not coming home tomorrow…I would simply ask you to do something. Because doing nothing, which is what we have been doing, is not working.” – Louisville, Kentucky Dr. Jason Smith

One of the most noticeable things about this year’s uro match is the number of DOs who have matched at historically MD programs. Places that 6-7 years ago, that would have likely never considered a DO applicant. Happy to see this barrier starting to become a thing of the past.

Are you a DO applying to the #urology #Match2023? We have a group of volunteer residents willing to provide insight into the process. We also have a document with programs that have accepted DOs in the past or have a DO attending on faculty.
