As with any other health issue that requires a specialist, when looking for an urologist or urogynecologist, it is important to find a doctor who is credentialed, experienced, and skilled in their field, and when the problem is as personal as urological dysfunction, you also need a doctor you can talk to. Patients love that about Dr. DiPiazza – he makes them feel okay and safe with his humor and down-to-earth manner. “I am so thankful that I found Dr. DiPiazza,” states a patient. “I had consultations with three other doctors

He is, without a doubt, the best doctor I have ever met.” A skilled surgeon, David DiPiazza, MD of Urology Specialists of West Florida sees a lot of patients with embarrassing urological issues, ranging from pelvic prolapse in women and prostate issues in men, to incontinence and complications caused by cancer in both women and men.
