About Urology Nurses
What they do
Urology nurses care for patients with urinary-tract and male reproductive conditions — kidney stones, incontinence, cancers, and post-surgical recovery. They assist with procedures like cystoscopy, manage catheters and stents, deliver bladder instillations and continence education, and support patients through both clinic visits and surgical care.
How to become an Urology Nurse
Urology nurses are RNs who work in urology clinics, surgical units, or procedure suites and learn the specialty’s catheters, instillations, and diagnostics on the job. Certifications such as the Certified Urologic Registered Nurse (CURN) recognize the specialized procedural and education skills the role requires.
What drives the pay
Urology nursing is not separately reported in federal wage data, so these numbers are specialty estimates anchored to registered nurse pay. Pay tracks close to the general RN baseline, since much of the work is clinic- and procedure-based, with certification and procedural experience providing modest lift.

- Which state pays Urology Nurses the most?

- Why is Urology Nurse pay shown as an estimate?
- No public source measures Urology Nurses as a separate occupation, so we start from registered nurse pay and apply the pay difference these nurses typically see. The figure is clearly labeled an estimate and sharpens as nurses submit their own pay.
- Why are some figures verified and others estimates?
- National pay for the main nursing roles — registered nurses, LPNs/LVNs, nurse practitioners, CRNAs, nurse midwives, and nursing assistants — comes from verified public wage data. State, city, and specialty figures that aren't reported on their own start from that national pay and are labeled "Estimated" or "Specialty estimate." We never show an estimate as a verified figure.
