As the current president of the AUA, Dr. Nakada will preside over this global event – the largest gathering of urologists worldwide. He shares a preview of what to expect, some behind-the-scenes insights, and his thoughts on the tremendous value of attending the meeting.

Dr. Scott Johnson, associate professor and chief of urologic oncology in the Department of Urology at the Medical College of Wisconsin, and Dr. Kyle Richards, associate professor in the Department of Urology at the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health, are guests for our season two finale.

For this program, Dr. Richards hands the hosting mic to fourth-year residents Emily Davidson, MD, at UW–Madison, and Emily Polley, MD, at MCW, to ask their questions about building a practice after completing urology residency.
