Personal Information

Urology may seem an unusual choice for a career, but it is the most interesting of all of the medical disciplines. It encompasses a wide variety of conditions, many of which play a very important role in the quality of a person's life, and many have very different possibilities for treatment.
I moved to Seattle for my residency in Urology at the University of Washington, where I also completed a fellowship in urologic oncology, which is the advanced study of urinary tract cancers.
During this period I met my wife, Molly. We have two sons and two daughters. I enjoy spending time with my family, college football and the tuba.

My experience with Dr. Salazar was as good or better than any doctor I've seen in the past. I was really dreading my appointment, but his friendly personality and ability to explain things in a manner I could understand, quickly put my mind at ease. I will continue to see Dr. Salazar for any care I need that aligns with his expertise.
