“It is my honor and privilege to serve as your next AUI president effective January 1, 2021,” says Dr. Sellinger. “Please help me thank Dr. Mike Grable for his six plus years of service as president of our organization. Under his strong guidance and leadership, AUI has become one of the largest independent urology groups in the country. I look forward to many more years of growth and prosperity, and most importantly, standing tall on our commitment to world-class, patient-centered care.”

We welcome Dr. Sellinger as our second AUI president.”
