Glen A. Lau serves as a Clinical Assistant Professor of Surgery within the Division of Urology at the University of Utah's School of Medicine. He practices pediatric urology across multiple clinical sites including Primary Children's Hospital in Salt Lake City, St. George Regional Hospital, and Utah Valley Outpatient Center.

His educational background includes:

• Bachelor of Science in Neuroscience (Minor: Business Management) from Brigham Young University
• Doctor of Medicine from University of Toledo College of Medicine
• Surgical Internship and Urology Residency at University of Tennessee Health Science Center
• Pediatric Urology Fellowship at University of Utah/Primary Children's Hospital

Dr. Lau specializes in pediatric reconstructive urology with particular expertise in endourology, laparoscopy, hypospadias repair, and neurogenic bladder management. His clinical approach emphasizes minimally invasive techniques and innovative solutions for complex congenital anomalies. Current research focuses on optimizing surgical outcomes through evidence-based protocols for renal trauma, neurogenic bladder, and voiding dysfunction.

Analysis of his recent publications (2018-2024) reveals three dominant research trajectories: (1) Refinement of reconstructive techniques for hypospadias and bladder neck procedures, (2) Development of standardized protocols for neurogenic bladder management including botulinum toxin therapy, and (3) Investigation of non-invasive neuromodulation approaches for pediatric voiding disorders. His work consistently bridges clinical practice with outcomes research using both prospective trials and large database analyses.

Dr. Lau maintains dual board certification through the American Board of Urology in both General Urology and Pediatric Urology subspecialty.

He actively contributes to quality improvement as a member of Primary Children's Medical Center's Surgical Quality and Safety Committee. His clinical practice demonstrates exceptional patient satisfaction with a 4.9/5 rating from 97 patient reviews, consistently highlighting his ability to explain complex procedures and alleviate parental anxiety. Dr. Lau's career trajectory shows progression from fellowship training directly into faculty position at the University of Utah, where he has developed specialized clinical programs in pediatric reconstructive surgery.
