    Dr. Laurence S. Baskin is a urologist and an expert in genital development and reconstructive surgery.

Baskin earned his medical degree at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA. He completed a general surgery residency at UCSF, followed by a fellowship in pediatric urology at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia.
