Positions

Overview

  • Dean G. Assimos, M.D., was named the inaugural chair of the Department of Urology in the University of Alabama at Birmingham School of Medicine. Previously a division within the Department of Surgery, the Department of Urology was created by the Board of Trustees of the University of Alabama System in April 2012.

    Assimos is an internationally known researcher and clinician, who comes to UAB from Wake Forest University where he was vice chair of urology. He received his undergraduate degree from Purdue and, in 1977, his medical degree from the Loyola Stritch School of Medicine in Chicago.

    Assimos completed a six-year residency in urology at Northwestern University in 1983. He was a fellow in renal reconstructive surgery and stone disease at Wake Forest University the following year and then an American Urological Association research scholar from 1984 to 1986.

    Assimos has been actively involved in the establishment of practice guidelines in urology. He is on the editorial board of the Journal of Endourology, and he contributes to the urologic survey section of the Journal of Urology. He is an NIH-funded physician scientist whose research has focused on endogenous oxalate synthesis of and the role of dietary oxalate in kidney-stone formation.

    His clinical practice is concentrated on the surgical management of patients with complex calculous disease, ureteral reconstruction and metabolic stone evaluation and treatment.
