Welcome to the Department of Urology at Stanford University School of Medicine Community Engagement and Advocacy webpage! As a department, we are passionate about providing an inclusive academic environment that values diversity of thought, prioritizes respectful and supportive work environments and also promotes professionalism and mutual respect for individuals from different backgrounds.

We are honored to have the opportunity to train the best and brightest residents, fellows, medical students and post-doctoral fellows in the world. As the future leaders in our field, we want to ensure that our trainees are prepared to provide evidence based care for diverse patient populations and also prioritize representation from diverse groups in their research.  We take this responsibility seriously.  We strive to provide opportunities for underrepresented individuals in Urology and to maintain a diverse group of faculty, staff and trainees.

As a department, we also actively strive to be anti-racist, to recognize our implicit biases and to address them head on as we strive to achieve health equity in Urology and beyond.
