In this video, Victoria C. Scott, MD, discusses the takeaways of the Journal of Urology study, “Fear and Frustration among Women with Recurrent Urinary Tract Infections: Findings from Patient Focus Groups,” as well as the importance of understanding patient frustrations regarding UTIs. Scott is a urologist at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Beverly Hills, California.
