High PSA
A high Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) level can indicate prostate issues, including cancer, enlargement, or infection. Regular screening is crucial for early detection and effective management. Treatment depends on the underlying cause and may include medication, lifestyle changes, or further diagnostic procedures. Our urologist specializes in comprehensive assessments and precise procedures to address high PSA levels.
Our commitment is to ensure accurate diagnoses and appropriate interventions for individuals with high PSA levels.
Treatment Options
Thorough evaluations to determine the cause of elevated PSA levels.
A transperineal prostate biopsy is a diagnostic procedure used to assess the prostate gland for signs of cancer. This approach involves inserting a needle through the skin between the scrotum and anus (perineum) to collect tissue samples from the prostate. It’s a key tool for diagnosing prostate cancer, especially in cases where previous biopsies were inconclusive or when infection risk needs to be minimized.
During the procedure, local anesthesia is used to reduce discomfort. Guided by ultrasound, the doctor precisely inserts a biopsy needle through the perineum to collect small samples of prostate tissue. These samples are then analyzed for cancer cells.
Prostate Cancer
Prostate cancer is a malignancy in the prostate gland, often identified through symptoms like difficulty urinating and detected via PSA tests or biopsies. Prostate cancer requires specialized care, and our urologist is dedicated to providing comprehensive solutions.
Our approach involves personalized treatment plans, considering the unique needs of each patient for optimal outcomes.
Treatment Options
A meticulous biopsy procedure, guided by advanced imaging, to accurately diagnose and stage prostate cancer.
Prostatitis (Infection)
Prostatitis is an inflammation of the prostate gland, usually caused by bacterial infection, characterized by urinary problems and pelvic pain. Our urologist offers specialized procedures for effective management.
Our goal is to address prostatitis with precision, providing relief and restoring overall prostate health.
Treatment Options

Chronic Pelvic Pain (CPPS)
