Alden Reine, M.D., understands this firsthand
and sees what a difference Cape Fear Valley Urology has made in this community since the practice's

gamut.
The scope of services include treatment for prostate, kidney and bladder cancers, kidney stones, vasectomies, sexual
dysfunction, urinary incontinence, and other genitourinary
