  • Pediatric Urologist in Surat

When your child faces a urinary or genital health issue, a general urologist isn’t always the right fit — children need a specialist trained specifically in pediatric urology. At Vivanta Kidney Hospital, our pediatric urologist in Surat, Dr. Sagar Katudiya, provides advanced child urology treatment, pediatric kidney care, and comprehensive urological services for children from newborn through adolescence.

Dr Katudiya has performed 15,000+ surgeries across his career, spanning both adult and pediatric urology, with particular expertise in circumcision, scrotal swelling management, and hernia repair in children.

Children’s urinary and reproductive systems have unique anatomy and needs, which call for specialised expertise, gentle technique, and a child-friendly environment. Our pediatric urology team works closely with pediatricians, nephrologists, and surgeons to ensure your child receives the safest, most minimally invasive care available — all at one pediatric urology hospital in Surat.

Understanding Pediatric Urology

Pediatric urology specialises in urinary tract and genital disorders in children from birth to adulthood. The anatomy of children’s urinary and reproductive systems is unique, as compared to adults. Sometimes, improper growth can affect the kidneys, bladder, urethra, and reproductive organs. Only early detection and treatment from specialists can prevent complications and ensure normal development for your children. At Vivanta Kidney Hospital, we do not just serve adults. We have a team of specialised urologists who focus only on the unique anatomical and physiological needs of children.

Why Choose a Pediatric Urologist in Surat Over a General Urologist?

A urologist is trained and experienced for adult patients. In the same way, a pediatric urologist is specialised and trained for infants to children. They highly focus on:

  • The growth and developmental stages of children’s kidneys, bladder, urethra, reproductive organs, etc.
  • They understand congenital anomaly conditions that can be corrected with early detection.
  • They are trained in child-sized surgical instruments that are perfect for smaller bodies.
  • They understand the behavioural and emotional status of a child and treat them accordingly with play therapy.
  • They also offer antenatal counselling for parents, so they can diagnose issues through fetal ultrasound.

Warning Signs Your Child May Need Child Urology Treatment in Surat

Here are some symptoms or warning signs that will help you. If you have any of these symptoms, immediately consult a pediatric urologist in Surat for your kid:

  • Bedwetting beyond age 5
  • Pain or burning during urination
  • Frequent or urgent need to urinate
  • Blood in urine (pink, red, or brown colour)
  • Swelling in the groin or scrotum
  • Undescended testicles
  • Abnormal appearance of the penis
  • Fever without obvious cause
  • Poor weight gain or feeding difficulties in infants
  • Recurrent urinary tract infections

Pediatric Urology Treatments We Provide in Surat

At Vivanta Hospital, we offer comprehensive care for children with congenital urological conditions, urinary disorders and kidney problems. Dr Sagar Katudiya is a skilled urologist who serves at first hand. 

  • Hypospadias & Epispadias Repair: It is a birth defect in which the opening of the urethra is abnormally located. We use advanced single-stage reconstructive surgery to normalise urinary function and cosmetic appearance for children.
  • Undescended Testis (Cryptorchidism) Surgery: It is a condition in which testes do not descend (move down) into the scrotum before birth. It is typically performed before one year of age to ensure proper development and reduce future risks.
  • Vesicoureteral Reflux (VUR) Treatment: It is a condition in which urine moves back from the bladder into the kidney. It increases the chances of recurrent infections and kidney injury. Depending on severity, treatment is performed.
  • Hydronephrosis & PUJ/UVJ Obstruction Surgery: It is a blockage at the kidney or ureter that prevents urine from draining properly. With laparoscopic or robotic pyeloplasty, we restore normal urine flow while preserving healthy renal function.
  • Posterior Urethral Valve (PUV) Treatment: It is a rare congenital condition in which a congenital membrane in the male urethra causes obstruction. Through endoscopic valve ablation, we help relieve obstruction, improve urine flow, and preserve kidney function.
  • Bedwetting & Voiding Dysfunction Treatment: For children with bedwetting, leaking urine during the daytime, or problems emptying the bladder, we include Urodynamic Studies and Biofeedback Therapy.
  • Recurrent Urinary Tract Infection (UTI): We suggest an anatomical urinary tract anomaly to find the cause of recurrent UTI with specialised investigations like ultrasound, VCUG, and renal scans.
  • Neurogenic Bladder Management: We provide specialised care for bladder issues associated with neurological conditions like Spina Bifida. Management consists of medical therapy, clean intermittent catheterisation, bladder retraining, etc.
  • Pediatric Kidney Stone Treatment: For a kid’s stone, we use kid-friendly minimally invasive methods, such as ureteroscopy and laser lithotripsy, to remove stones safely and preserve normal kidney function.
  • Pediatric Laparoscopic Urology Surgery: Our state-of-the-art laparoscopic pediatric urology procedures involve only tiny incisions with less pain and scarring, shorter hospital stays, and quicker recovery times. 
  • Circumcision & Phimosis Treatment: When the foreskin of children is too tight, it is termed phimosis. We treat phimosis with medication, or circumcision is performed to prevent infection, along with better urinary hygiene in children and adults.
