Discreet solutions for a private problem.
Bonnie is preparing for her daughter’s college graduation at the stadium. This should be a happy time for Bonnie, 53, as she sees the last of her three daughters walk across the stage to receive a college diploma. But Bonnie is worried. When she has to go to the bathroom, she needs an escape route. Her frequent trips are disruptive to normal life. She doesn’t want to miss a minute of the special graduation ceremony. Bonnie and others like her —men and women alike — need to know that incontinence is not a normal aspect of aging.
The doctors of Urological
Associates, Inc. specialize
in treating bladder
and urinary control
problems for men and
women.
Female Incontinence
Loss of urine control
is not a normal aspect
of aging for women.
A range of conditions
and disorders can cause
incontinence. We can
provide on-site bladder
testing to determine
the cause and proper
treatment.
Male Incontinence
For
men, an enlarged prostate,
also known as Benign
Prostatic Hyperplasia
(BPH) is a common cause
of urinary problems.
Men may experience
a weak urine flow,
a sudden urge to urinate,
frequent night time
urination or difficulty
starting to urinate.
Urological Associates,
Inc. offers several
in-office treatments
for an enlarged prostate.
- 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. This procedure
is fast – usually
an hour or less – and
patients return home
immediately.
- Prostiva® RF
Therapy, formerly
known as TUNA, provides
a preferred option
in minimally invasive
treatment of urinary
problems caused by
BPH. 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.
Our
patients are reassured
to find they don’t
have to live with incontinence.
With our modern equipment
we can diagnose and
successfully treat
loss of urine control.

option for you.
