What specialist treats chronic UTIs?
Chronic UTIs are typically treated by urologists—doctors specialising in urinary tract health. In some cases, gynaecologists or nephrologists may also be involved.
Detailed Medical Explanation
Urologists diagnose and treat persistent UTIs, investigate underlying causes, and manage complications. Gynaecologists may be involved in women’s health, and nephrologists if there is kidney involvement. More: NHS: UTI care.
