     UroMed  Corporation  (the  "Company"),  a  Massachusetts  corporation,  was
incorporated in October 1990 and is dedicated to establishing itself as a leader
in providing interventional  urological products, with a primary emphasis on the
treatment  of  prostate  cancer.  The Company has also  developed  and  acquired
technology in urinary incontinence products.


2.         Basis of Presentation

     The condensed balance sheet at June 30, 2000 and the condensed statement of
operations  for the three and six months  ended  June 30,  2000 and 1999 and the
condensed  statement  of cash flows for the six months  ended June 30,  2000 and
1999 are unaudited. In the opinion of management,  all adjustments necessary for
a fair  presentation  of these  financial  statements  have been included.  Such
adjustments  consisted only of normal recurring  items.  Interim results are not
necessarily  indicative  of results  for a full year.  The  balance  sheet as of
December  31,  1999 has been  derived  from the audited  consolidated  financial
statements  at that  date  but  does  not  include  all of the  information  and
footnotes  required by generally  accepted  accounting  principles  for complete
financial statements.

     These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
Company's audited financial  statements and related footnotes for the year ended
December 31, 1999,  which may be found in the  Company's  1999 Annual  Report on
Form 10-K.

     In March  2000,  the  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board  issued  FASB
Interpretation No. 44 ("FIN 44"), "Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving
Stock  Compensation - an Interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25". FIN 44 clarifies
the  application  of APB  Opinion No. 25 ("APB 25"),  including  the  following:
definition  of an employee  for  purposes of applying  APB 25; the  criteria for
determining whether a plan qualifies as a non-compensatory  plan; the accounting
consequences of varioius  modifications  to the terms of previously  fixed stock
options or awards;  and the  accounting  for an exchange  of stock  compensation
awards in a business combination.  FIN 44 is effective July 1, 2000, but certain
conclusions in FIN 44 cover specific  events that occurred after either December
15, 1998 or January 12, 2000. The Company does not expect the application of FIN
44 to have a material impact on the Company's  financial  position or results of
operations.

     In December 1999, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC) issued
Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 ("SAB 101"), "Revenue Recognition in Financial
Statements".  SAB 101 summarizes the SEC's views in applying  generally accepted
accounting  principles  to  selected  revenue  recognition  issues in  financial
statements.  In June 2000,  the SEC issued Staff  Accounting  Bulletin  101B, an
amendment  to  SAB  101,  which  delays  the  implementation  of  SAB  101.  The
application of the guidance in SAB 101 will be required in the Company's  fourth
quarter of 2000.  The Company is currently  determining  the impact that SAB 101
will have on its financial position and results of operations.

5.         Early Retirement of Debt

     In March 2000 and in March 1999,  the Company  repurchased,  at a discount,
portions of its  outstanding 6% Convertible  Subordinated  Notes due October 15,
2003 ( the  "Notes").  These  repurchases  occurred in  unsolicited  open market
transactions, with persons who are not affiliated to the Company.

     During  March  2000,  the  Company  repurchased   $3,000,000  in  aggregate
principal  amount  of its  Notes  for  $1,680,000  in cash.  As a result of this
repurchase  $61,000  of  deferred  financing  fees  were  written  off,  and  an
extraordinary  gain of  $1,259,000  was reported in the  condensed  statement of
operations for the six months ended June 30, 2000.

     During  March  1999,  the  Company  repurchased   $1,350,000  in  aggregate
principal  amount  of its  Notes  for  $621,000  in cash.  As a  result  of this
transaction  $28,000  of  deferred  financing  fees  were  written  off  and  an
extraordinary  gain of $701,000  was  reported  in the  condensed  statement  of
operations for the six months ended June 30, 1999.

6.         Segment Reporting

     The Company has determined  its reportable  segments based on its method of
internal reporting,  which  disaggregates its business by product category.  The
Company's  reportable  segments  are (i) its  prostate  cancer and  incontinence
business,  which  includes the Cavermap  surgical  aid, the I-125  brachytherapy
seeds and needles and all consumer and surgical incontinence  products, and (ii)
its breast  cancer  business,  which  includes all  development  efforts for its
proposed BreastExam, BreastView and BreastCheck products. On April 15, 1999, the
Company  disposed of its Breast Cancer business through a spin-out to a separate
corporation in which the Company holds an approximate one-third interest.

     The accounting  policies of the segments are the same as those described in
Note 2, "Summary of  Significant  Accounting  Policies" in the Company's  Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999. The Company  evaluates
the  performance  of its  operating  segments  based on operating  results which
represents  income or loss before interest income and expense and  extraordinary
gain on early retirement of debt. There are no intersegment revenues.

     The tables below presents  information about the Company's segments for the
three months and six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999.  Asset  information by
segment is not reported,  because the Company does not produce such  information
internally (in thousands):

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
          and Results of Operations


     This  Management's  Discussion  and Analysis  should be read  together with
"Forward-Looking  Statements  and  Associated  Risks"  contained  later  in this
report.

      Overview

     The Company is  dedicated to  establishing  itself as a leader in providing
interventional  urological  products,  with primary emphasis on the treatment of
prostate cancer.  The Company seeks to market a portfolio of products  including
its two main  proprietary  products for the  treatment of prostate  cancer:  the
CaverMap  Surgical Aid,  available to aid physicians in preserving  vital nerves
during prostate cancer surgery, and the Symmetra I-125 radioactive seeds used in
a brachytherapy  procedure to treat  localized  prostate  cancer.  The Company's
product portfolio also includes brachytherapy introducer needles and fascia lata
used in  incontinence  surgical  procedures.  UroMed,  through  its  approximate
one-third ownership of Assurance Medical, Inc., has supported the development of
electronic  palpation  technology  in order to aid  physicians in the mission of
finding suspicious breast lumps earlier.  The Company also continues to dedicate
resources to the development  and/or  acquisition of product lines that fit into
its strategic platform.


      Results of Operations

      Revenues

     The Company's revenues for the second quarter of 2000 increased 83% to $1.2
million as compared to $0.7 million in the second quarter of 1999. For the first
six months of 2000 revenues  increased  100% to $2.2 million as compared to $1.1
million for the first six months of 1999.  The  increases in 2000 are the result
of increased sales levels for the CaverMap Surgical Aid, the Symmetra I-125 seed
and AlloSling  fascia lata.  The increases in the CaverMap  Surgical Aid and the
AlloSling  fascia  lata  are  due to the  Company  being  further  along  in the
marketing and  distribution  plans for these  products.  The Symmetra I-125 seed
shipments  commenced  in test markets  during the third  quarter of 1999 and was
released  for full  scale  distribution  during the first  quarter of 2000.  The
Company has entered into and continues to seek partnerships to capitalize on its
incontinence products and technology.

      Cost of revenues

     Cost of  revenues  for the  second  quarter of 2000  increased  39% to $1.0
million as compared to $0.7 million in the second quarter of 1999. For the first
six months of 2000 cost of revenues increased 31% to $1.8 million as compared to
$1.3  million  for the first six  months of 1999.  The major  component  of both
increases  is the  increase in  variable  direct  material  costs as a result of
increased  revenue  levels in 2000 when  compared  to 1999.  Additionally,  2000
includes $0.2 million in costs  associated  with scrapping  Symmetra I-125 seeds
that decayed to radioactive strength ranges not considered saleable.

      Operating Expenses

     Research and  development  expenses in the second quarter of 2000 decreased
41% to $0.3 million as compared to $0.6  million in the second  quarter of 1999.
For the first six months of 2000 research and development expenses decreased 51%
to $0.7  million  from $1.3  million  for the first  six  months of 1999.  Major
components of the decrease in the second  quarter 2000 as compared to the second
quarter of 1999 are as follows:  $0.2  million  reduction  in  CaverMap  related
spending; and a $0.1 million reduction in spending to support the development of
the production capability for Symmetra. Major components of the decrease for the
first six  months  of 2000 as  compared  to the first six  months of 1999 are as
follows:  $0.3 million  reduction  in CaverMap  related  spending;  $0.2 million
reduction in Assurance  Medical related  expenses as Assurance  Medical was spun
out into a separate  corporation in April 1999; and a $0.1 million  reduction in
support of the development of the production capability for Symmetra.

     Marketing and sales  expenses in the second quarter of 2000 increased 7% to
$0.6 million as compared to the second quarter of 1999. For the first six months
of 2000 marketing and sales  expenses  increased 23% to $1.3 million as compared
to $1.0  million  for the first six months of 1999.  The  increase in the second
quarter of 2000 as  compared to the second  quarter of 1999 is due to  increased
sales activity and sales headcount. For the first six months of 2000 as compared
to the first six  months of 1999 the major  components  of the  increase  are as
follows:  $0.2 million  reduction in Assurance  Medical related  expenses;  $0.3
million increase in sales compensation due to an increased headcount; and a $0.2
million increase in Symmetra related marketing expenses.

     General and administrative expenses in the second quarter of 2000 decreased
50% to $0.2 million as compared to $0.4  million in the second  quarter of 1999.
For the first six months of 2000, general and administrative  expenses decreased
35% to $0.7  million  from $1.0  million  for the first six months of 1999.  The
decrease in the second quarter of 2000 as compared to the second quarter of 1999
is a result of $0.2 million in proceeds received for an asset previously written
off as a general and administrative expense in 1998. The major components of the
decrease for the first six months of 2000 as compared to the first six months of
1999 are as follows:  $0.2 million  reduction due to the receipt of proceeds for
an asset previously written off; and $0.1 million reduction in Assurance Medical
related expenses.

      Restructuring

     In March 1999, the Company  entered into a lease  termination  agreement in
respect  to the  facility  that it  committed  to  abandoning  during the fourth
quarter of 1998.  Based upon the terms of this agreement,  the Company's cost of
exiting this facility were $80,000 less than the  Company's  original  estimates
that were included within the  restructuring  liability as of December 31, 1998.
As a result, the Company reversed $80,000 of the restructuring  liability during
the first  quarter of 1999.  The  remaining  balance was paid out in cash during
1999.

      Interest income and interest expense

     Interest income in the second quarter of 2000 decreased 16% to $0.2 million
as compared  to $0.3  million in the second  quarter of 1999.  For the first six
months of 2000 interest  income  decreased 22% to $0.5 million from $0.6 million
for the first six  months of 1999.  These  decreases  were  attributable  to the
reduced size of the Company's investment  portfolio,  caused by the need to fund
the  Company's  operations  and to  repurchase  a portion of its 6%  Convertible
Subordinated Notes due October 15, 2003 (the "Notes").

     Interest  expense  in the  second  quarter  of 2000  decreased  37% to $0.2
million as compared to $0.4 million in the second quarter of 1999. For the first
six months of 2000  interest  expense  decreased  34% to $0.5 million from $0.8
million for the first six months of 1999.  These decreases were attributable to
the reduction in outstanding  Convertible  Subordinated Notes due to repurchases
thereof during 1999 and 2000.

      Extraordinary gain on early retirement of debt

     In March 2000 and in March 1999,  the Company  repurchased,  at a discount,
portions of its  outstanding 6% Convertible  Subordinated  Notes due October 15,
2003 ( the  "Notes").  These  repurchases  occurred in  unsolicited  open market
transactions, with persons who are not affiliated to the Company.

     During  March  2000,  the Company  repurchased  $3.0  million in  aggregate
principal  amount  of its Notes for $1.7  million  in cash.  As a result of this
repurchase,  an  extraordinary  gain of $1.3  million  has been  reported in the
condensed statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2000.

     During  March  1999,  the Company  repurchased  $1.4  million in  aggregate
principal  amount  of its Notes for $0.6  million  in cash.  As a result of this
repurchase,  an  extraordinary  gain of $0.7  million  had been  reported in the
condensed statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1999.

      Liquidity and Capital Resources

     Cash and  short-term  investments  totaled  $12.6 million at June 30, 2000,
compared to $17.9 million at December 31, 1999. At June 30, 2000,  the Company's
funds were invested in corporate debt obligations and money market funds.

     Net cash used in operating activities of $3.7 million during the six months
ended June 30, 2000 was primarily a result of the net loss before  extraordinary
gain of $2.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000. In addition,  there
was a cash  outflow of $0.5  million in the form of an advance  payment to Bebig
(manufacturer  of Symmetra  seeds) and $0.4  million in  increased  inventory to
support current sales and demand levels.

     Net cash provided by investing  activities  was $7.0 million during the six
months ended June 30, 2000 due primarily to net sales of short-term investments.

     Net cash used for financing  activities  was $1.6 million  during the six
months ended June 30, 2000,  as a result of the $1.7 million used to repurchase
$3.0 million in aggregate principal amount of Notes.

     In October 1996, the Company  completed the sale of $69.0 million of its 6%
Convertible Subordinated Notes due October 15, 2003 (the "Notes").  Through June
2000,  the Company  repurchased a total of $54.6 million in aggregate  principal
amount of its Notes resulting in an outstanding  principal  balance of the Notes
at June 30, 2000 of $14.4 million.  The Company is considering from time to time
additional repurchases of its Notes. Any repurchases of Notes may be made on the
open market or in privately negotiated  transactions.  The Company plans to fund
such purchases from its working capital.

     The Board of Directors of the Company  authorized a Common Stock repurchase
program  in 1999 (the  "Repurchase  program").  The  Company  is  authorized  to
repurchase up to one million shares of the outstanding  Common Stock,  from time
to time,  subject to prevailing  market  conditions.  As of June 30, 2000,  the
Company has  repurchased  approximately  240,000  shares of its Common Stock for
$573,000 as part of the Repurchase program. Purchases pursuant to the Repurchase
program may be made on the open market or in privately negotiated  transactions.
The Company plans to fund such purchases from its working  capital.  The Company
did not repurchase any common stock during the first six months of 2000.

     The  Company's  common  stock is  presently  listed on the Nasdaq  SmallCap
Market  ("Nasdaq  SmallCap")  under the symbol  URMD.  The Nasdaq  SmallCap  has
continued  listing  requirements that must be maintained by all the companies it
lists.  The Company  may not be able to comply  with all of the Nasdaq  SmallCap
continued  listing  requirements  for the  entire  year  of  2000.  There  is no
assurance  that the  Company's  common  stock will  continue to be listed on the
Nasdaq  SmallCap or that the  movement of the  Company's  common  stock from the
Nasdaq SmallCap to another stock exchange or to over-the-counter  bulletin board
will not have a material  adverse effect on the market value or liquidity of the
Company's common stock.

     The Company  believes that available cash, cash  equivalents and short-term
investments  will be  sufficient to meet the  Company's  operating  expenses and
capital  requirements for at least the next twelve months.  The Company's future
long-term  liquidity  and  capital  requirements  depend  on  numerous  factors,
including the  development  of the  Company's  marketing  capability  and market
acceptance of the CaverMap  Surgical Aid and the Symmetra I-125 seed.  There can
be no assurance that the Company will not require additional  financing or that,
if  required,  such  financing  will be  available  on terms  acceptable  to the
Company.

RECENTLY ENACTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In March  2000,  the  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board  issued  FASB
Interpretation No. 44 ("FIN 44"), "Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving
Stock  Compensation - an Interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25". FIN 44 clarifies
the  application  of APB  Opinion No. 25 ("APB 25"),  including  the  following:
definition  of an employee  for  purposes of applying  APB 25; the  criteria for
determining whether a plan qualifies as a non-compensatory  plan; the accounting
consequences of varioius  modifications  to the terms of previously  fixed stock
options or awards;  and the  accounting  for an exchange  of stock  compensation
awards in a business combination.  FIN 44 is effective July 1, 2000, but certain
conclusions in FIN 44 cover specific  events that occurred after either December
15, 1998 or January 12, 2000. The Company does not expect the application of FIN
44 to have a material impact on the Company's  financial  position or results of
operations.

     In December  1999,  the U.S.  Securities  and Exchange  Commission  ("SEC")
issued Staff Accounting  Bulletin No. 101 ("SAB 101"),  "Revenue  Recognition in
Financial Statements".  SAB 101 summarizes the SEC's views in applying generally
accepted  accounting  principles  to  selected  revenue  recognition  issues  in
financial  statements.  In June 2000, the SEC issued Staff  Accounting  Bulletin
101B, an amendment to SAB 101, which delays the  implementation  of SAB 101. The
application of the guidance in SAB 101 will be required in the Company's  fourth
quarter of 2000.  The Company is currently  determining  the impact that SAB 101
will have on its financial position and results of operations.

     FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND ASSOCIATED RISKS

     Certain  statements  contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may be
considered  forward-looking  statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the
Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the  Securities  Exchange Act of 1934,
including  statements  regarding  (i) the planned  progression  of the Company's
commercialization  strategies for the CaverMap  Surgical Aid, the Symmetra I-125
brachytherapy  seed and  introducer  needle  including  the timing and extent of
sales, (ii) the continued marketing  activities for the commercial launch of the
Symmetra I-125  brachytherapy  seeds,  (iii) the Company's  planned uses for its
cash and  other  liquid  resources,  and (iv) the  extent  of  future  revenues,
expenses  and  results  of  operations  and  the  sufficiency  of the  Company's
financial  resources to meet  planned  operational  costs and other  expenditure
needs, and the development of partnerships  and/or  strategic  alliances for all
incontinence  and breast care products and related assets and technology.  These
forward-looking  statements are based largely on the Company's  expectations and
are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the
Company's   control.   Actual  results  could  differ   materially   from  these
forward-looking  statements  as a result of  certain  factors,  including  those
described below:

     - - The uncertainty that the CaverMap Surgical Aid and Symmetra I-125 seeds
     will gain market acceptance among physicians in the United States.

     - - The  uncertainty  that the Company will be able to develop and maintain
     an effective sales force and implement a successful  marketing  campaign
     for the   CaverMap  Surgical Aid and the Symmetra I-125  brachytherapy
     seed in the United States.

     - - The  Company's  dependence on others, including the supplier of
     Symmetra I-125 seeds Bebig Isotepentechnik and Umweltdiagnostik GmbH of
     Berlin, Germany, for its products and raw materials and certain other
     components  of its  products, including  certain materials available only
     from single sources.

     - - The  uncertain  protection  afforded the Company by its patents  and/or
     other intellectual property rights relating to the Company's products.

     - - The uncertainty as to whether the Company will be able to  market and
     sell its products  at  prices  that  permit  it  to  achieve satisfactory
     margins in the production and marketing of its products.

     - - Risks relating to FDA and other governmental oversight of the Company's
     operations,  including  the  possibility  that the FDA could impose  costly
     additional  labeling  requirements  on, or restrict the  marketing  of, the
     Company's  products,  or suspend operations at one or more of the Company's
     facilities.

     - - The  uncertainty of the size of the potential  markets of the Company's
     products.


          Other relevant  risks are described in the Company's  Annual Report on
     Form  10-K  for the  year  ended  December  31,  1999  under  the  headings
     "Forward-Looking  Statements and Associated Risks" and "Risk Factors",  and
     are incorporated herein by reference.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

     The Company does not use derivative financial instruments. Less than 10% of
the Company's  sales in the first six months of 2000 were to foreign  customers,
primarily in Europe. All such foreign sales are denominated in U.S. dollars. The
Company  believes,  based on a  hypothetical  ten  percent  adverse  movement in
foreign  currency  exchange rates for the European Euro, the potential losses in
future earnings and cash flows are  immaterial,  although the actual effects may
differ materially from the hypothetical analysis.
