Our services
Novant Health Urology – Kimel Park offers comprehensive urologic care to men, women and children of all ages. Your urinary system (renal system) includes the kidneys, ureters, bladder and urethra. It is responsible for removing waste (urine) from the body, and also regulates blood volume and composition. The urinary system also plays a role in regulating the level of minerals in the body, and in reproductive function.
