FAQ's Related to Urosurgeon

What does a Urosurgeon do?

This surgeon is the most sought after for pain and discomfort related to the various urogenital conditions in patients. 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. The suggested lifestyle changes and proper medications are recommended by the surgeon and they help the patients in preparing for surgery as well.

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

The tests required before and during consultation for a Urosurgeon are as follows:

  • Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) Blood Test
  • Urine Test
  • CT-Urogram
  • Cystoscopy
  • Digital Rectal Exam
  • Retrograde Pyelogram
  • Blood 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. To confirm whether the abnormal growth like tumors in your kidney or prostate are cancerous, surgeons advise biopsies. It is routinely seen that the doctor advises Kidney Ultrasound, Prostate/Rectal Ultrasound to the patient.

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. When your doctor needs to rule out the possibility of a urogenital problem or reconfirm their diagnoses they refer you to a Urosurgeon.
