A urologist is the doctor you see for problems with the urinary system — kidneys, bladder, and the tubes between and out — and, for men, also for the reproductive organs, including the prostate. So a urologist handles kidney stones, bladder infections that keep coming back, trouble peeing, blood in the urine, prostate checks for older men, and vasectomies.
