Transurethral Incision of Prostate (TUIP)

Laser offers patients quick symptom relief, ease and comfort of urinary flow, and minimal short-term side effects, so can be used as an alternative to the transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) in high risk patients.

Prostatectomy — open or laparoscopic — simple or radical

Prostatectomy is surgery to remove part or all of the prostate gland. The procedure is used to treat a number of conditions affecting the prostate. Its most commonly used as a treatment for prostate cancer.Prostatectomy can be performed in several ways, depending on the condition involved.

Kidney Procedures

We specialize in treating disorders of the kidney, which includes performing kidney procedures such as nephrectomy, minimally invasive surgery, nephrolithotomy, and more.

Shockwave Lithotripsy (SWL)

Shockwave Lithotripsy (SWL) is the most common treatment for kidney stones. Pressure waves are sent from outside the body to break apart the kidney stone or stones into tiny fragments, allowing an easier passage for the patient.

Ureteroscopy or RIRS Laser Lithotripsy of Stone

A ureteroscopy/ RIRS with laser lithotripsy is a procedure in which the doctor will use a rigid or flexible scope and a powerful laser to break apart large ureteric / kidney stones that cannot be passed naturally, treated with shockwave lithotripsy, or medication.

Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy (PCNL) / Mini PERC

Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is a minimally invasive inpatient procedure used for kidney stones that cannot be passed naturally, treated with Shockwave Lithotripsy, or medication. PCNL is an excellent option for patients with large kidney stones (generally larger than 1.5 cm), multiple large stones, or stones resistant to prior treatment with other methods.

Cystoscopy

Cystoscopy is a diagnostic procedure that allows the doctors to get a direct look into the bladder, urethra, and prostate.

This procedure allows the doctor to look inside the bladder to make an evaluation to help diagnose a problem, take a tissue biopsy if needed, and is used to treat certain bladder problems.

Cystolithotrite / Cystolithitripsy

These are the most common procedure used to treat bladder stones. Bladder stones are hard deposits of minerals that form inside the bladder. Stones develop when the minerals in concentrated urine crystalize. This may occur when people have difficulty emptying their bladder completely.

Transurethral Resection of Bladder Tumor (TURBT)

Transurethral resection of a bladder tumor is a procedure in which the urologist diagnoses or treats a cancerous bladder tumor attached to the bladder wall. TURBT can be used to treat many different bladder disorders
