As a general urology practice, we treat a variety of urological conditions using the very latest urological technology and innovations. We have extensive experience and expertise in the diagnosis and treatment of the following list of conditions:

 

  • Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (Enlarged Prostate): We offer all methods of treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), including recently-approved medications, state-of-the-art needle ablation, and traditional treatment with standard medication or surgery if necessary.

  • Female Incontinence: Our physicians are skilled in the diagnosis and treatment of incontinence in women. We use advanced urodynamics to determine the severity of incontinence and the best method of treatment. We work closely with each patient to decide together which treatment option is best among drug therapy, Kegel exercise instruction, contigen injections, and the newest sling procedures, including the Influence sling and paravaginal suspension. We work in conjunction with your gynecologist for the best possible treatment and a positive outcome restoring you to an active, healthy lifestyle.

  • Renal/Urinary Calculi: Our practice treats a large number of patients with urinary stones. We employ the latest technology available, including non-invasive ESWL, laser surgery, and ultrasonic lithotripsy.

  • Vasectomy: This type of permanent birth control is offered in the office as an outpatient procedure. We believe in educating each patient to help you make the best choice for your own medical care. Before we perform a permanent procedure like a vasectomy, we will arrange an interview for you with one of our physicians to explain the nature of the procedure and to explain its possible risks and benefits. You are then scheduled for an appointment to come into our office and the vasectomy is performed in about 30 minutes.
  • Prostate Cancer: We are equipped with innovative technology in the diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer. By using the latest proven surgical techniques, we can greatly reduce the risk of negative side effects like incontinence and impotence. Our alternatives to traditional surgery include endocrine therapy and radiation therapy, including brachytherapy (prostatic seed implantation).
