Get to know Urologist Dr. Gary Kalser, who serves patients in Clermont, Florida

Dr. Kalser is a board-certified urologist with Orlando Health Medical Group Urology – Clermont. He specializes in oncology, specifically cryoablation of the prostate. This procedure is used for localized cancer and significantly reduces complications and adverse results, including erectile dysfunction. He has also treated more than 100 patients with recurrent cancer after radiation.

The doctors at Orlando Health Medical Group Urology are committed to reducing patients’ pain and discomfort, and treating their medical condition as quickly and effectively as possible. Their doctors and medical professionals work in teams to provide the most comprehensive care and treatment for each patient.

Beginning his professional pursuits at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, Dr. Kalser went on to further his training with a residency at the University of Miami, Jackson Memorial Hospital and a fellowship in urology at State University of New York (SUNY) Downstate Medical Center.

Distinguished as a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons, the doctor is board-certified in urology by the American Board of Urology (ABU). The mission of the ABU is to act for the benefit of the public by establishing and maintaining standards of certification for urologists, and working with certified urologists to achieve lifelong learning to ensure the delivery of high quality, safe, and ethical urologic care.

Practicing urology in the Orlando area for over 30 years, he was Chairman of the Department of Urology at Orlando Health for two terms. He has also served on the Board of Directors of Orange County Medical Society, and is an active member of the American Urological Association.

An author and co-author of over 26 US and international patents involving innovations related to improving patient safety, Dr. Kalser was recently awarded a U.S. patent for a device used in prostate cryoablation. He is currently involved in product development of a urinary catheter that will considerably reduce injuries to patients during hospitalization. This device will lessen complications and improve the efficacy and safety of prostate cryoablation.

Urology, also known as genitourinary surgery, is the branch of medicine that focuses on surgical and medical diseases of the male and female urinary-tract system and the male reproductive organs. Urologists specialize in diseases of the urinary tract and the male reproductive system. Patients may be referred to a urologist if their physician suspects they may need treatment for a condition relating to the bladder, prostate, urethra, ureters, kidneys, and adrenal glands.
