USANZ in the Media

Last week, we announced that Damien Bolton, USANZ President, and Greg Jack, USANZ Endourologuy Specialty Advisory Groups Leader, spoke to the media about the increasing occurance of kidney stones in women.

Media coverage of this issue has continued this week.

An article was published by the AAP on December 14, appearing in approximately 90 publications around the country. It focuses on a patient case study of Tina Brock with expert commentary by Greg.
