Our medical staff includes the following urologists:
Kenneth Belkoff, DO, FACOS
Jennifer Peters, MD
Jenne G. Myers, MD
Francis A. Garofalo, MD
As urologists, our physicians are highly trained to treat disorders of the male and female urinary tract (bladder, ureter, kidney, and urethra) and the male genitourinary system. Urology is classified as a surgical subspecialty, but since a wide variety of clinical problems are encountered when treating urological conditions, knowledge of internal medicine, pediatrics, gynecology, and other specialties is required.

Jenne G. Myers, M.D.
Dr. Myers is certified by the American Board of Surgery.
Dr. Jenne Myers joined the staff of Foothills Urology in August of 2005 as a fellowship trained minimally invasive urologist. She received her Medical Degree from the University of Utah School of Medicine in Salt Lake City. She completed her urology residency and fellowship in minimally invasive urologic surgery at the University of Kentucky Chandler Medical Center in Lexington, KY.

Dr. Myers is one of only a few physicians specializing in minimally invasive urologic laparoscopic and robotic surgery. Minimally invasive surgery aims to decrease blood loss, pain, and hospital stay without compromising oncologic principles. Surgical incision size is minimized while the operative field is magnified using the laparoscope.
