Considering these strong ties and today&#8217;s changing health care environment, the timing was right to create a unified team of urologic experts to provide patients with the highest quality of care.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;These urologists bring years of experience in clinical care and advanced procedures not previously performed here,&#8221; said Chad LaGrange, M.D., chief of urology and Edward &amp; Sally Malashock Chair of Urologic Surgery. <\/p>\n<p><TABLE border=\"0\" width=\"260\" cellspacing=\"5\" cellpadding=\"3\" align=\"right\"><br \/>\n<TR><br \/>\n<TD><br \/>\n<TABLE border=\"1\" width=\"250\" cellspacing=\"1\" cellpadding=\"5\" bgcolor=\"99ccff\"><br \/>\n<TR><br \/>\n<TD><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">\n<font face=\"arial\"><br \/>\n<B><br \/>\nSurgery and urology clinic physicians<br \/>\n<\/B><br \/>\n<BR><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">\n<font face=\"arial\" size=\"2\"><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Judson Davies, M.D.\n<li>Peter Gordon, M.D.\n<li>Brett Hill, M.D.\n<li>Brett Jepson, M.D.\n<li>Harvey Konigsberg, M.D.\n<li>Steven Koukol, M.D.\n<li>R.

Together, we will enhance our patient care activities, augment our educational experiences for residents and students, and increase our research opportunities,&#8221; said David W. Mercer, M.D., McLaughlin Professor and Chairman, Department of Surgery. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We have had a long-standing relationship with The Urology Center as it relates to resident education and
