Welcome to the website for the Chicago Urological Society (CUS). The CUS provides an opportunity for Chicago based urologists and guests to gather together and share thoughts and ideas on an array of urologic topics. Our venerable organization has been in existence since 1903. Each season the society holds 6 individual meetings all featuring a national expert for that particular session. This season meetings will focus on bladder and prostate cancer, bladder health, minimally invasive approaches to upper tract disease and urologic complications. The society always includes a resident essay forum during the January meeting and an x-ray contest at the April meeting.

This season we are proud to introduce our new management team of WJ Weiser and Associates. Weiser brings a wealth of experience at managing urologic societies and they have already introduced several new innovations to enhance the society's mission and improve the meeting experience for our members. Our aim will continue to be to help educate Chicagoland urologists, inspire our young trainees to reach their full potential, and provide a forum for camaraderie and fellowship among the members of the society. We welcome any suggestions and comments and continue our quest to have every Chicagoland urologist be a participant and member.
