FAQ's Related to Urosurgeon

What does a Urosurgeon do?

The urogenital conditions bring a lot of pain and discomfort in the patient and it is this which is resolved by a Urosurgeon. 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?

Please do have a look at the tests that are recommended before and during a consultation with a Urosurgeon.:

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

The Urosurgeons recommend tests that have a clear correlation with the urogenital issue the patient is enduring and more often than not kidney tests could be included in them. 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. Further, many times the doctor advised you to get Kidney Ultrasound, Prostate/Rectal Ultrasound done.

When should you go to see a Urosurgeon?

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. Your decision is also based on the symptoms and their severity which may lead you to directly to the Urosurgeon instead of being referred by a primary care doctor. While recovering from a urogenital procedure if you start experiencing complications then also you can do so. 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.
