About Kevin Koenders, PA-C
Kevin Koenders, PA-C, a physician assistant in urology at Endeavor Health, provides care for patients in both outpatient and inpatient settings and assists in the operating room. With prior experience in urology as well as orthopedic surgery and hospital medicine, Kevin returned to urology because of his strong interest in the specialty’s conditions and treatments, including kidney stones, urinary retention and overactive bladder. He focuses on ensuring patients understand their diagnosis, treatment options and care pathway so they can make informed decisions about their health.
My endeavor
My endeavor is to achieve the best possible outcomes for my patients in our community.
Care philosophy
My approach to patient care is focused on giving patients the time they need to talk about the issues bringing them to the clinic, then providing clear information so they leave feeling informed and confident about their next steps. I work to ensure patients understand their diagnosis, treatment options and expected outcomes, and I connect them with the right resources if additional expertise is needed.

Pharmaceutical, device, and biotechnology companies frequently collaborate with research scientists and physicians to help advance scientific knowledge and improve patient care. These relationships can support scientific breakthroughs and help establish the effectiveness and safety of promising new therapies.
To ensure objectivity in clinical research and patient care, Endeavor Health maintains integrity policies requiring researchers and clinicians — whether in full-time, part-time and unpaid or voluntary roles — to disclose compensated and uncompensated relationships with external industry organizations.
Patients are encouraged to discuss these relationships with their physician as well as to inquire as to how these relationships are overseen by Endeavor Health. Learn more about our Conflict of Interest and Commitment Policy.
Additionally, patients can visit the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Open Payments website, a national disclosure program that promotes a more transparent and accountable healthcare system. It houses a publicly accessible database of payments that reporting entities — including pharmaceutical, device, and biotechnology companies — make to covered recipients such as physicians and hospitals.
CMS is required by law to publish this data annually on or before June 30 for the previous reporting year. The data is published annually, so it may not reflect the most recent reporting period. If you have questions about the information, talk with your physician.
