The urology specialists at St. Louis Children's Hospital perform some of the most technologically advanced procedures when treating children, and is one of only a few pediatric facilities in the country—and the only one in the St. Louis region—to offer robotic surgery for children needing urologic procedures.

Dr. Vricella joins the show to discuss advancements in pediatric urologic surgery, and when a pediatrician should refer a patient to a specialist.
