About

Elizabeth (Betsy) Koehne, MD, is a UW Health urologist. She’s also an assistant professor in the Department of Urology at the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health.

Dr. Koehne is a urologic oncologist specializing in the surgical treatment of bladder, prostate and kidney cancer. She provides personalized, evidence-based care with a focus on minimally invasive techniques and advanced technology to diagnose and treat urologic cancers. Dr. Koehne offers expertise in robotic surgery, MRI-guided prostate biopsies, transperineal prostate biopsies and enhanced visualization cystoscopy.

Dedicated to serving her community, Dr. Koehne knew from a young age that she wanted to be a doctor. Recognizing that sickness impacts the whole family, she arms them with information. She partners with patients to help them understand their condition, review their options and make decisions about their care. She supports her patients throughout their healing journey, from diagnosis to recovery.

Additionally, Dr. Koehne studies new therapies for bladder cancer. Her research aims to make bladder cancer easier to treat.

Outside of work, Dr. Koehne enjoys gardening, cooking, running, yoga and spending time with her husband and dogs.

My hope for each of my patients is that they find comfort in knowing that they're at a great institution where everybody is doing their best every day to provide the highest level of care.
