What does a Urosurgeon do?

There is a lot of important work that is accomplished by a Urosurgeon when it comes to resolving the urogenital conditions and discomforts the patient is suffering from. It is under the supervision of the Urosurgeon that adequate testing and screening is done in relation to the procedure itself. The Urosurgeons are always on the lookout for upgrading their procedures so as to refine the processes further. When it comes to preparing for the procedure and guiding the patient with the lifestyle changes to be made and prescribing the medications, it is the doctors responsibility.

What are the tests required before and during consultation for a Urosurgeon?

A Urosurgeon consultation means that certain recommended tests may be needed and we have listed them here for your convenience.:

Further, many times the doctor advised you to get Kidney Ultrasound, Prostate/Rectal Ultrasound done.

When should you go to see a Urosurgeon?

It is essential that you see a Urosurgeon when your primary care doctor has suggested that the urogenital problem cannot be solved through medical treatment.When medical treatment has been ruled out either right at the onset or it has been applied and has failed to help you, it is then that you go to see a Urosurgeon. Instead of being referred by a primary care doctor, you can choose to approach a Urosurgeon directly if the symptoms are severe and a clear indication that only surgery can help you. Also, please do so If you are experiencing problems or complications during recovery from a urogenital operation.
