Dr Brandt Information at Minnesota Urology

who i am and WhAt I Am About

I get asked all of the time why I became a urologist. The long-winded answer goes something like this: I was looking for a specialty where I could become a surgeon and be able to fix things with my hands while also enjoying relationships with people in a clinic setting. My short answer? Urologists always seemed to be having fun and I felt I could fit in and contribute.


A urologist is a surgeon, but often much more to a patient. We develop relationships with patients over long episodes of care.. Cancer care, kidney stone treatment, voiding dysfunction, enlarged prostates, and men's health concerns are all problems that develop and change with time. I have many patients I have been seeing over 20-plus years of my career.


My mission is to provide high-quality, compassionate, up-to-date care. I am dedicated to utilizing technology to improve your urologic health while maintaining a patient-centered focus.

Conditions I Treat

Prostate Cancer

Prostate Cancer

Prostate Cancer

Prostate cancer is the most common cancer and the second leading cause of cancer death among men in the United States. Prostate cancer usually grows very slowly but some cancers grow quickly. Finding and treating prostate cancer for men with faster growing cancer is critical to improve men's health or help them live longer.

Kidney Cancer

Prostate Cancer

Kidney cancer can develop in adults and children. The main types of kidney cancer are renal cell cancer and transitional cell cancer in adults. In the modern era of medicine with imaging such as ultrasound and CT scans many kidney cancers are found in early stages and cured. Most kidney cancer is sporadic but certain inherited conditions increase the risk of kidney cancer. 

Bladder Cancer

Bladder Cancer

The most common type of bladder cancer is transitional cell carcinoma, also called urothelial carcinoma. Smoking is a major risk factor for bladder cancer. Bladder cancer is often diagnosed at an early stage and effectively treated with minimally invasive surgery. Blood in the urine is the most common presenting complaint for people with bladder cancer.

Kidney Stones

Enlarged Prostate

Bladder Cancer

Kidney stone disease, also known as nephrolithiasis or urolithiasis, are the minerals in the urine combining together in a concentrated urine to create a stone. Small crystal and stones pass spontaneously. Larger stones require surgery. Kidney stones are a very common problem. Urgent treatment for some is needed. A tailored prevention strategy is needed for everyone.

Enlarged Prostate

Enlarged Prostate

Almost all men will have prostate enlargement. Some men will have obstruction of urine through the urethra because of it and require medication or surgery to treat it. My partners and I offer almost all forms of current treatment options.

Penile Implants

Erectile Dysfunction is a very common problem in men. Penile Implants are used for men when medication, vacuum devices, and injection treatments are no longer effective. You can find more information about my experience placing penile implants using  the link below.

Blood in urine, Infections, and other Urinary Complaints

Blood in urine, Infections, and other Urinary Complaints

Blood in urine, Infections, and other Urinary Complaints

Much of what we see in the office are patients with general complaints about their urinary health. Pain, infection, and bleeding are common complaints.  My job is to sort through these complaints to determine a cause and a solution if possible.  

Elevated PSA

Blood in urine, Infections, and other Urinary Complaints

Elevated PSA

Elevated prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels can be a sign of prostate cancer. It can also indicate noncancerous problems such as prostate enlargement and inflammation. My job is to help you determine what is causing the elevation.
