About
Us
The American Association of Pediatric Urologists
The first meeting of the "Society of Young University Pediatric Urologists" was in 1987 in La Quinta, California. To the best of combined memories the original 11 attendees were David Roth, Mark Zaontz, Hrair Mesrobian, Ross Decter, Barry Kogan, Bob Bailey, George Steinhardt, Marty Koyle, Rick Hurwitz, Sol Greenfield, and Mike Packer. The criteria for membership were that you had to graduate from your fellowship after 1980. I graduated in 1980 and Marty Koyle sneaked me in through the back door for which I am ever grateful. After several years, the name of the organization was changed to the American Association of Pediatric Urologists.

Our Mission
The American Association of Pediatric Urologists (AAPU) is a non-profit organization whose main purpose is to promote pediatric urology practice and education as well as stimulate discussion and informational exchanges between practitioners involved in the treatment of genito-urinary disorders in children.
