2016 was an exciting year for the Urology Care Foundation! Reaching people through Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest and Instagram was a great way to help share stories of urology, health and education. Here are our 5 most popular Tweets from 2016:
5. In October we hosted the Bladder Health Alliance Roundtable Meeting. Working together with patient advocates, we promoted awareness and teamwork with the American Urological Association (AUA) to have November named as Bladder Health Month in the United States.
