Dr. Caveney was the first in his family to attend college, starting his undergraduate studies without a clear career path. It was his involvement in college rugby that provided the inspiration he needed. “I played Division 1 rugby at Chico State in California and gravitated toward studying the human body as I became involved in strength training, nutrition, and exercise,” he explains.
Initially, Dr. Caveney considered a career in physical therapy, but soon realized his interest lay more in the microscopic and physiological processes within the human body. After graduating magna cum laude, he headed east to Wake Forest School of Medicine in North Carolina.
Though he initially was drawn to obstetrics and gynecology, a rotation in urology ultimately changed his trajectory. “As a urologist, you have the privilege of having highly personal conversations about very private health concerns that patients may not even share with their significant other,” he notes. “We’re not only entrusted with that information, but we are also seen as individuals who can help patients overcome these issues. Building close, long-term relationships with my patients is incredibly rewarding.”
After graduating medical school, Dr. Caveney trained at the renowned Cleveland Clinic in Cleveland, Ohio, which boasts the largest residency program in the United States. Here, he gained extensive experience in managing complex urologic conditions.
Today, Dr. Caveney utilizes his expertise to treat a broad range of urologic issues, including kidney stones, erectile dysfunction, Peyronie’s disease, enlarged prostate, male and female urinary incontinence, overactive bladder, and pelvic organ prolapse.
He is enthusiastic about being part of a close-knit practice where “patient-first care” is the guiding principle. “I immediately saw that UPNT is more than just a collection of urologists,” he reveals. “The practice is a collection of friends and colleagues—people who support each other to deliver the best possible care so that the men and women who count on us can enjoy a better quality of life.”
When he isn’t caring for patients, Dr. Caveney, an avid weight lifter, and his wife enjoy frequenting the YMCA and taking their young daughters to the Fort Worth Zoo and other local attractions.
