We
Provide Expert Care
for Prostate Health
William has noticed that his stream of urine has become weaker and weaker, yet his trips to the bathroom are increased. The 72- year-old is unsure about what’s happening, and his primary care doctor referred him to Urological Associates where he will be evaluated and treated for prostate health.
Prevention, diagnosis
and treatment are all
important when it comes
to prostate health.
All
men should undergo
regular prostate cancer
screenings. Our on-site
lab can draw and process
the PSA (prostate specific
antigen) test for prostate
cancer.
For the treatment
of an enlarged prostate,
or Benign Prostatic
Hyperplasia (BPH),
we offer several in-office
treatments:
- The Prolieve™ microwave thermotherapy
is one alternative
to surgery or drug
therapy. With this
in-office treatment,
microwave heat reduces
enlarged tissue of
the prostate, while
a balloon attached
to a catheter opens
up the prostatic urethra.
- Prostiva® RF
Therapy, formerly
known as TUNA, provides
a preferred option
in minimally invasive
treatment of BPH
and urinary problems.
Low-level radiofrequency
energy is used to
heat the enlarged
inner part of the
prostate. This results
in shrinkage of the
prostate and improved
urine flow.
Both
procedures can be done
in about an hour right
in our offices. Talk
to our doctors to determine
if you are a good candidate
for these treatments.
We
also treat prostatitis,
the inflammation of
the prostate.
