AI Phone Automation Built for Urology Practices.
From post-surgical catheter concerns and hematuria triage to PSA result callbacks and BPH medication refills — CallMyDoc captures every call, routes to the right provider, and documents it all in your EHR automatically.
Why Urology Practices Need More Than an Answering Service
Urology practices handle a unique blend of surgical follow-ups, cancer care, and chronic disease management — and the phone volume reflects it. Post-prostatectomy patients calling about catheter issues at midnight. Patients with gross hematuria deciding between the ER and waiting until morning. Kidney stone patients in acute colic needing triage guidance. Patients anxiously calling about elevated PSA results. BPH patients needing medication adjustments. Oncology patients on active surveillance needing lab result callbacks. Traditional answering services take a message. They can't distinguish a post-TURP patient with clot retention from someone with mild irritative voiding symptoms. They don't know the caller had a cystoscopy yesterday and that the blood they're seeing may be expected. CallMyDoc delivers full clinical context — surgical history, pathology results, current medications, and recent labs — so your team triages every call with the data that matters.
"Half our after-hours calls were catheter questions from post-surgical patients — and they were all going to the on-call urologist regardless of urgency. CallMyDoc triages automatically: blocked catheters with no output get escalated immediately, while routine catheter care questions are documented for morning staff. Our on-call pages dropped 60% in the first month."

The Urology After-Hours Problem
Urology after-hours calls span a wide clinical spectrum — from true surgical emergencies to routine management questions. A patient with acute urinary retention who can't void at all. A post-prostatectomy patient reporting heavy bleeding through their catheter. A kidney stone patient with intractable pain, nausea, and fever suggesting an infected stone — a urological emergency. A patient with testicular torsion symptoms. Meanwhile, other patients call about routine catheter care questions, mild post-procedure discomfort, medication refills for tamsulosin or finasteride, and follow-up scheduling. Your answering service relays all of these as "urology patient, wants callback" with no clinical differentiation. Without knowing the patient's surgical history, current catheter status, or recent procedures, the on-call urologist treats every call as potentially urgent — leading to burnout, unnecessary ER referrals, and slower response to genuine emergencies.
How CallMyDoc Handles Urology Calls
CallMyDoc identifies each patient by date of birth, matches them to their chart in your EHR, and delivers the full clinical picture to the on-call provider — surgical history, procedure dates, catheter status, current medications, pathology results, PSA trends, and a verbatim transcript of the patient's call. The system categorizes every call — post-surgical concern, acute urological emergency, catheter issue, hematuria report, stone episode, medication refill, lab result inquiry, oncology follow-up, and routine scheduling — and routes each to the right person based on urgency and on-call schedule. True emergencies reach the urologist in minutes. Routine calls are documented with complete context for morning follow-up.
Urology Urgency Triage
The AI categorizes urology calls into clinical request types and flags urgent presentations — acute urinary retention, testicular torsion symptoms, gross hematuria with clot retention, post-surgical hemorrhage, infected kidney stones (fever with obstruction), catheter obstruction with no urine output, priapism, urosepsis signs, and Fournier's gangrene symptoms — for immediate provider routing with shortened escalation windows. Non-urgent calls like BPH medication refills, routine catheter care questions, post-vasectomy check-in, PSA result inquiries, and follow-up scheduling are queued separately with full documentation.
Post-Surgical Follow-Up Management
Urology generates a high volume of post-operative calls — prostatectomy, TURP, nephrectomy, cystectomy, ureteroscopy, vasectomy, and penile prosthesis patients all produce follow-up calls about pain, bleeding, catheter management, drain output, activity restrictions, and expected recovery timelines. CallMyDoc captures each call with the patient's full surgical context — procedure type, date, catheter placement details, drain status, and current recovery protocol — so providers can quickly assess whether a complaint is a normal post-operative course or a complication requiring intervention. Post-op calls are flagged by procedure type and days since surgery, helping providers prioritize early complications.
On-Call Provider Routing
CallMyDoc manages rotating on-call schedules across your urology team automatically. When a patient calls, the system routes to the correct covering urologist or APP based on the schedule, the patient's assigned surgeon, and the urgency of the call. Weekend coverage, holiday rotations, sub-specialty routing (oncology, female pelvic medicine, pediatric urology, endourology, male infertility), shared call pools, and backup provider escalation are all handled without manual intervention. If the primary on-call doesn't respond within the configured window, CallMyDoc automatically escalates — critical for time-sensitive presentations like testicular torsion.
EHR Integration for Urology
Native integration with athenahealth, Altera TouchWorks, and Veradigm Professional means every patient interaction — daytime or after-hours — is documented directly in the chart with timestamps, transcription, and routing decisions. Surgical history, pathology results, PSA trends, imaging reports, catheter status, current medications, and oncology staging are all accessible to the on-call provider before they return the call. No manual data entry. No documentation gaps. Complete malpractice protection with timestamped records of every post-surgical interaction and every triage decision.
Urologic Oncology Support
Prostate cancer, bladder cancer, kidney cancer, and testicular cancer patients generate frequent calls — PSA result inquiries, biopsy result callbacks, treatment side effect management, active surveillance scheduling, and new symptom reports. CallMyDoc captures these with the patient's full oncology context — diagnosis, Gleason score or staging, treatment history (surgery, radiation, immunotherapy, hormonal therapy), PSA trends, and surveillance schedule. Patients calling about elevated PSA or new symptoms are flagged with their baseline values and treatment history so providers can prioritize callbacks appropriately. Biopsy result inquiries are managed the same way as in other surgical specialties — documented, flagged when ready, and batched for efficient callbacks.
Kidney Stone Management
Kidney stone patients call in acute distress — severe flank pain, nausea, hematuria, and uncertainty about whether to go to the ER. CallMyDoc captures these calls with the patient's stone history — prior episodes, stone composition if known, recent imaging, current stent status, and medication regimen. The AI flags high-risk presentations — fever with obstruction (suggesting infected stone requiring emergency intervention), anuria, or intractable pain unresponsive to prescribed medications — for immediate provider escalation. Patients with known stones on conservative management are documented with full context so the on-call provider can make an informed decision about ER referral versus continued home management.
43-Language Translation
Describing urological symptoms requires precise and often sensitive language — "I can't urinate at all and my bladder feels full," "there's blood in my urine and large clots," "I have severe pain on my right side that comes in waves." Many patients find these symptoms difficult to describe even in their native language. CallMyDoc provides real-time translation across 43 languages, converting patient speech to English for providers and transcribing responses back in the caller's language. No interpreter lines. No delays. No additional charges. Accurate symptom capture across language barriers is critical when triaging between a urological emergency and a routine concern.
