John Muenchrath, MD is often asked, “Why urology?” Urology deals with areas of the body that make patients uncomfortable — even more than the ‘usual’ stuff — and he likes to put people at ease and take them through the process of evaluation and treatment with compassion and excellent care. His goal is to make sure patients understand what will need to be done and why.

Dr. Muenchrath has been a general urologist for over 25 years. He treats diseases and tumors of the kidneys, ureters, bladder and male genitalia. There are very few things that are more rewarding for Dr. Muenchrath that caring for a person and making them better.

    I like Dr. Muenchrath. He is nice and genuine. I go to 4 other doctors and my dentist I like him the most.

    I appreciate having Dr. Muenchrath as my Urologist. The practice has become very busy and it is more difficult to schedule appointments. There also seems to be less time for doctor/patient discussions.

    There was not much discussion for post catheter removal and treatment options. I realize 2 weeks are needed to address the infection. I did not necessarily hear lif the infection inflamed or enlarged my prostate or vice versa. I look forward to later blood work to compare to that taken yesterday. I recognize this was acute situation that needed resolving

    Dr. Muenchrath has an excellent bedside manner! He is direct with his explanations, compassionate enough to involve his patient in treatment decisions and instills confidence in his ability to resolve the issue at hand in a humble manner. I like this physician very much and I feel much less anxiety now regarding my upcoming surgery after this pre-op appointment with him.

    Dr Muenchrath is very kind and personal in his interactions. He listened to our concerns and acted on them immediately. He got a gastroenterology consult for {patient name removed} the very next day, and promised to address the urology concern as soon as the more pressing throat problem was looked at. He is patient and gives easily understood explanations.

    Thoroughly pleased with attention addressed to patient and to accompanying caregiver and guardian.
  • Mar, 27 2024
    Dr. Was very patient answering our questions and explaining procedures and why they were needed. I was impressed that while I was there to assist my father-in-law, the doctor was speaking to my father-in-law instead of to me. Many doctors we have seen try and speak to me instead of the pt. I know that my father-in-law appreciated that.
  • Mar, 21 2024
    I believe Dr. Muenchrath has very good, excellent patient skills. I feel a rapport with the doctor that leaves me feeling that my health is important to him and he values me as a human being. I look forward to my visits to the clinic

    I transferred my care from a wonderful doctor at Virginia Mason to Dr. Muenchrath several months ago. And I once again have a wonderful doctor. I am now closer to home and have the same care and compassion as I'd had. My thanks to Doc for taking such good care of me.
