Specialist Urology Care in the Heart of Charlotte
The Hawthorne office at 325 Hawthorne Lane sits in Charlotte's 28204 zip code, close to the neighborhoods of Elizabeth, Plaza Midwood, Dilworth and Myers Park and a short drive from Uptown. For people who live or work in the center of the city, that means specialist urology care without a cross-county commute. The office has six urologists, the largest physician team among the practice's Charlotte-area offices.
Patients arrive with every kind of concern. Men visit about erectile dysfunction, low testosterone, vasectomy and vasectomy reversal. Couples who are trying to conceive meet with Dr. Manish Damani, who completed a fellowship in male infertility, microsurgery and reproductive medicine at Boston Medical Center. Others come in with an elevated PSA, an enlarged prostate or a new cancer diagnosis. Women come for incontinence, overactive bladder and urinary tract infections that keep returning, and adults of any age arrive after seeing blood in the urine or passing a kidney stone.
The treatments listed by Hawthorne providers are wide. For an enlarged prostate they include Rezūm water vapor therapy, robotic simple prostatectomy and other surgical options. For overactive bladder and incontinence they include Botox, Interstim nerve stimulation and urinary sphincters. For men's health they include penile implants, Xiaflex injections for Peyronie's disease and vasectomy with an option for mobile anesthesia. For stones they include endourology and percutaneous nephrolithotomy. A patient with more than one concern can often see providers who cover each of them without being sent elsewhere, and the physician who plans your care is the one who performs your surgery.
Cancer care is a major focus at this office. Dr. Kyle Johnson completed a fellowship in urologic oncology and minimally invasive surgery, and Dr. Blair Townsend completed a fellowship in robotic urologic oncology at the Keck School of Medicine of the University of Southern California. The team's listed areas of focus include da Vinci robotic prostatectomy, partial and radical nephrectomy, cystectomy and brachytherapy, so a patient can often move from diagnosis to treatment planning with the same group of physicians.
Every visit starts with a physician or advanced practice provider who listens to your full story and explains what they find in plain language. The practice offers in-office diagnostics that can shorten the path from symptoms to answers. If you need a procedure or surgery, your urologist is also your surgeon, so the person who knows your case guides you through treatment and follow-up. Physician assistants Ann Holland Thomas and Dakota Dukes also see patients here.
Starting is simple. Call 704-372-5180 or text 980-998-3640, and the front desk will help you find the right provider for your concern. The office is open Monday through Friday from 8:30 am to 5:00 pm.
