FAQ's Related to Urosurgeon

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 a Urosurgeon who makes sure that the appropriate testing and screening has been done before the decisions on the procedures are taken. Enabling better results via upgraded technological interventions are also done by Urosurgeons who are enterprising and excel in their work. It is the responsibility of the surgeon to recommend the best medicines, adequate lifestyle changes if needed and guide the patient through to the surgery.

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

Here is a comprehensive list of the tests that can be needed prior to and during a Urosurgeon consultation.:

  • Blood Test
  • Urine Test
  • CT-Urogram
  • Retrograde Pyelogram
  • Digital Rectal Exam
  • Cystoscopy
  • Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) Blood Test

Among the tests routinely associated with the urogenital conditions, kidney tests are considered to be very prevalent. A kidney or prostate biopsy is recommended by the surgeon when it is to be checked that the abnormal growth in these body parts are cancerous or not. Kidney Ultrasound, Prostate/Rectal Ultrasound are also some of the routine tests advised by the doctor.

When should you go to see a Urosurgeon?

You go to see a Urosurgeon when the medical treatment has been found to be ineffective towards your urogenital problem. 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. Further, post surgery complications can and should also prompt you to consult the surgeon at the earliest. The specialist may be consulted by your doctor to rule out urogenital problems as well which can be a reconfirmation of your primary care doctor's diagnoses.
