Restore normal urinary functions. Seek comprehensive and lasting solutions with our bladder specialist for urinary tract infections, urinary incontinence, bladder cancer, and hematuria.
Conditions We Treat:
Urine Incontinence
Urine incontinence, the loss of bladder control, can be managed through lifestyle changes, pelvic floor exercises, medication, or surgery. Male sling or artificial urinary sphincter implantation are surgical options for severe cases.
Our urologist recognizes the impact of incontinence on daily life and offers personalized care, tailoring treatment plans to individual needs and preferences.
Treatment Options
The male sling procedure is a surgical treatment for mild to moderate urinary incontinence, particularly in men who have undergone prostate surgery. The sling, made of synthetic mesh, is placed to support the urethra, helping to restore bladder control. This minimally invasive procedure typically results in a quicker recovery and less pain compared to more extensive surgeries. It’s important to consult a urologist to determine if this procedure is suitable for your specific condition.
The artificial urinary sphincter is a device surgically implanted to treat severe urinary incontinence, often resulting from prostate surgery complications. It consists of a cuff that encircles the urethra, a pressure-regulating balloon, and a pump placed in the scrotum. The device mimics the function of a healthy sphincter, allowing controlled urination. This option can significantly improve quality of life. A consultation with a urologist is essential to understand the procedure, risks, and benefits.
Urination Disorders
Urination disorders can manifest in various ways, including frequency, urgency, or difficulty initiating urination. Our urologist conducts thorough assessments to determine the underlying causes and formulate targeted treatment plans.
Depending on the specific urination disorder, treatments may include behavioral interventions, medications, or in some cases, surgical procedures to address anatomical or functional issues.
Our urologist’s approach is comprehensive, ensuring that individuals with urination disorders receive personalized care to restore normal urinary function.
Urinary Tract Infection
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) can cause discomfort and require prompt attention. Our urologist offers expert care for UTIs, including accurate diagnosis, appropriate antibiotic therapy, and preventive strategies.
Antibiotic therapy tailored to the specific bacteria causing the infection, along with recommendations for lifestyle changes to prevent recurrent UTIs.
Our urologist prioritizes patient comfort and well-being, providing thorough and compassionate care for individuals experiencing urinary tract infections.
Bladder Cancer
Bladder cancer often presents with blood in the urine and may also cause urinary frequency and pain during urination. Bladder cancer requires specialized care, and our urologist excels in the diagnosis and treatment of this condition.
Our urologist adopts a multidisciplinary approach, collaborating with oncologists to ensure comprehensive and personalized care for individuals facing bladder cancer.
Procedures
A minimally invasive procedure involving the removal of cancerous tumors from the bladder lining. TURBT is a key diagnostic and therapeutic tool in managing bladder cancer.
Blood in Urine (Hematuria)
The presence of blood in the urine, known as hematuria, requires careful evaluation to determine the underlying cause. Our urologist employs advanced diagnostic techniques to identify and address the source of hematuria.
Our urologist is committed to providing thorough assessments and individualized care to those experiencing blood in their urine, ensuring a precise diagnosis and appropriate management.
Diagnostic Procedure
A procedure using a thin, flexible tube with a camera to visualize the interior of the bladder. This allows for a detailed examination to identify potential causes of hematuria.
