Physician’s Clinic of Iowa (PCI) has announced plans to expand its urology practice to Iowa City, operating under the new name PCI Corridor Urology.
Starting March 25, long-serving community physicians Margaret Ekroth, MD, and Luke Brunkhorst, DO, will see patients at their new facility at 2557 N. Dodge Street.
“The addition of these two outstanding physicians offer PCI the perfect opportunity to expand specialized urology care into one of the fastest growing regions in Iowa,” said Eric Dalton, PCI’s Chief Executive Officer. “More importantly, the central location will provide convenient access for residents to continue to get valuable urology services they need, close to home.”
Dr. Ekroth, who earned her medical degree at the University of Iowa Carver College of Medicine, specializes in incontinence, bladder and kidney stones, enlarged prostate treatment and treatment of urologic cancers.
“PCI consistently focuses on high quality, efficient care. Joining this organization to create PCI Corridor Urology will give myself and my partner the resources to provide the best expert urology care in the Iowa City – Cedar Rapids corridor,” she said in a news release.
A graduate of Des Moines University, Dr. Brunkhorst specializes in the treatment of urologic cancers, enlarged prostate, kidney stones and overactive bladder.
“Joining with PCI to launch PCI Corridor Urology will allow me to continue the personalized care that I’ve worked hard to achieve as a community urologist for more than 10 years,” he said. “I strive to be easily accessible and try to provide very personalized care that can only be found in a community-based health setting.”
PCI Corridor Urology will share its North Dodge Street location with Larew Internal Medicine (LIM), which has operated from the location since 2019. Doug Laird, with Skogman Commercial Real Estate Group, represented PCI and LIM in finalizing the agreement.
