History

The American Urological Association is a nonprofit medical society founded in 1902 with the goal of advancing the practice of urology and providing optimal care for people with urological diseases and disorders. It grew out of the New York Genito-Urinary Society, whose members voted to disband and officially form the American Urological Association on February 22, with Dr. Ramon Guiteras among the founders.

The association is now headquartered near Baltimore, Maryland. The AUA has more than 24,000 members worldwide who have been transforming and improving urological care for over 100 years. Its Annual Meeting has grown into the profession's premier global event; the 2025 meeting marked the meeting's 120th year as the largest gathering of urologists in the world.
