Abstract
Chatbots, or conversational robots, have become a strategy or support tool for urologic patient care, diagnostic communication, and treatment. With regard to patients, studies have shown that chatbots can answer medical questions with similar percentages of acceptability as urologists. In addition, they can contribute to patient education, allowing them to ask questions that do not arise during medical consultation. They have also proven to be good tools for health promotion and disease prevention. These benefits can also serve doctors, as robots can support medical consultation and the reading of medical records, making patient care more efficient; however, there are several limitations, including the accuracy of bot-generated answers and the acceptability that urologists give to this type of tool.
