Biography: Dr. Riggin joined SMG Urology in 2017 and treats all aspects of adult urological disorders. He has a special interest in kidney stone disease and his goal is to make all of his patients 100 percent stone free through a comprehensive approach which includes surgical and medical management, as well as preventive care. He has extensive experience performing ``tubeless`` percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) for the management of large and complex kidney stones. During his training, he also acquired experience using the latest minimally invasive, laparoscopic and robotic assisted techniques for the management of kidney, bladder and prostate cancer, as well as BPH. He uses the Da Vinci surgical robot to remove kidney tumors and to reconstruct kidney and ureteral abnormalities. He also performs a wide array of BPH procedures including REZUM, Greenlight Laser PVP and Trans-urethral resection of the prostate (TURP). Additionally, he offers a broad spectrum of medical and surgical treatments for erectile dysfunction and Peyronie's disease. Dr. Riggin grew up in Annapolis and attended University of Maryland, College Park for his undergraduate degree.
