UNC Urology is thrilled to announce the addition of Dr. Minh Pham. Dr. Pham’s return to North Carolina marks not only a professional milestone for him but also a significant moment for our urology department as we continue to grow our esteemed faculty.


A North Carolinian’s Journey

Dr. Pham’s roots run deep in North Carolina – starting his academic journey at Duke University, where he earned an undergraduate degree in Biology in 2012. Dr. Pham then went on to enroll at the UNC School of Medicine in Chapel Hill, where he earned his medical degree in 2017. After completing medical school Dr. Pham pursued his residency training in Urology at Northwestern University in Chicago, IL, a period that concluded with his graduation in 2023.

A Homecoming to UNC

UNC Urology is thrilled to welcome Dr. Pham back to Chapel Hill, where he will be joining our faculty as an Assistant Professor. His commitment to advancing urological care aligns seamlessly with our department’s mission to provide cutting-edge and compassionate healthcare across North Carolina.

Dr. Pham’s appointment as a faculty comes as no surprise to his former colleagues and mentors who have shared their thoughts on his many notable contributions:
  • “There is something special about Minh Pham, and you will be lucky to have him on your faculty…. [he] has been one of the most popular and highly-respected residents because of his intelligence, personality, integrity, industriousness, and trustworthiness.”

  • “He is universally liked by colleagues, staff, and patients. Minh is a self-starter, anticipates what the team needs and helps people succeed without being asked.”

  • “He is a spectacular human being, compassionate physician, notable teacher, and lifelong learner…. I am confident that [he] will emerge as a local and regional expert in the care of urology patients and have tremendous confidence that he will also emerge on the medical school campus as an outstanding mentor and teacher to others.”

  • “He possesses the ideal combination of intellectual curiosity, which drives his scholarly pursuits, and affable personality, which allows him to make strong connections with patients, nurses, and other physicians…. I would be extremely happy to have him as a partner.”

Clinical Care with UNC

Dr. Pham specializes in general urology, with a keen interest in addressing kidney stones and prostatic diseases such as benign prostatic hyperplasia and prostate cancer. His dedication to staying at the forefront of urological advancements promises to enhance the quality of care provided to our patients.

In addition to his role in Chapel Hill, Dr. Pham is extending his expertise to UNC Chatham Hospital. Residents of Siler City and Pittsboro will now have access to urologic care, benefitting from Dr. Pham’s commitment to comprehensive and accessible healthcare.

As we celebrate the arrival of Dr. Pham, we invite the community, colleagues, and patients to join us in extending a warm welcome. Dr. Pham’s dedication to his home state and his passion for urological care exemplify the values that define UNC Urology.

We look forward to the positive impact Dr. Minh Pham will undoubtedly make as a valued member of our urology team.
