As an AdventHealth Medical Group team member, Tourchi joins more than 400 health care providers, including 250 primary care physicians and specialists in Flagler, Lake and Volusia counties.
Tourchi specializes in performing minimally invasive surgery and treating kidney stones, enlarged prostates, sexual and erectile dysfunction, urinary incontinence, male infertility and vasectomies, and cancer of the kidney, ureter, bladder and prostate.
