MISSION STATEMENT

Provide the highest standard of urological care in a compassionate and ethical manner.

The Texas Tech Urology residency program aims to produce diverse, skilled, and compassionate Urologists by providing outstanding clinical and surgical training.  Our goal is to prepare our residents to be independent and self-assured.  We train residents so they can choose to go into fellowship training, private practice in the region, or academic medicine.

At graduation, residents will have the necessary background to practice urology in the environment of their choice to include general or sub-specialty training, and/or an academic or research oriented career.
