Kidney Stone Center

Welcome to the Metro Urology Kidney Stone Center.  We are committed to being a comprehensive care center for treatment and prevention of your kidney stones

One in ten Americans have kidney stones, and symptoms and presentations vary. We treat the full spectrum of stone disease, from the routine to the complex.  Our expertise allows us to choose appropriate, safe, and effective treatment options for each patient's particular situation.

Half of those people who have formed their first stone will form another, and we believe in preventing recurrent stones. Our metabolic stone prevention clinic is one of the largest in the country and routinely manages the most difficult cases. Prevention strategies are adapted to a patient's needs according to the most current research.

Traditionally stone removal and stone prevention have been separate processes, often administered by different specialists. The Metro Urology Kidney Stone Center unifies stone removal and stone prevention efforts, getting rid of the stones you have and the stones you don't.

We hope you enjoy our website.

Sincerely,

Andrew J Portis, M.D.
