Prithvi Murthy

, M.D.

Dr. Prithvi Murthy, MD is a fellowship-trained urologist with expertise in the management of urologic cancers, such as prostate, bladder and kidney cancer. First and foremost, he believes in thoroughly educating his patients regarding their urologic conditions and treatment options so that they feel empowered to help create a plan of care. He is particularly adept at utilizing robotic and other minimally-invasive surgical modalities.

A native of southeastern Michigan, Dr. Murthy obtained his undergraduate degree in Biomedical Engineering from the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. He went on to earn his medical degree at the University of Chicago – Pritzker School of Medicine where he was awarded the Dean’s Scholarship for Outstanding Promise in Medicine. Dr. Murthy then completed urologic surgery residency at the Cleveland Clinic Glickman Urological and Kidney Institute, which is consistently ranked as the #1 urology residency training program in the country. From there, he obtained further sub-specialty education in genitourinary malignancies at the Moffitt Cancer Center in Tampa, where he completed a research and clinical fellowship accredited by the Society of Urologic Oncology.

Dr. Murthy has published research articles across the breadth of urology including pediatrics, robotics, sexual health, infertility, and extensively in oncology. His work has been presented both nationally and internationally. He endeavors to use his academic background to bring cutting-edge treatments to his patients at convenient locations close to their homes. Outside of his clinical practice, Dr. Murthy, enjoys trying new restaurants, racket sports and traveling with his wife and two daughters.
