They may be potential patients of urologists and could be actively consulted through the Internet technologies - with the help of telephone hotlines, instant messaging, postponed on-line consultations. In May 2012 we have the experience of more than 150 000 postponed consultations.

Urologists are the most active Internet users (67%) among physicians of other specialities. They use the Internet for exchange of information, communication, education, practical experience, on-line consultation of patients, participation in work of professional organizations.

Urological content is formed by creating of professional information resources, which publish news and information about events, meetings, interviews with leaders in urology, web-casts, on-line events broadcastings. Principally innovative approach is the creation of Urology television Uro.TV. A new trend in the Internet is socialization, an example of which is “Academy of Ambulatory Urology” project.
