  • Can kidney stones cause a urinary tract infection?

    Kidney stones can lead to infection as they can serve as a media for bacteria to adhere to and multiply. If the urine is sterile, that shouldn’t be the case. Also, if a kidney stone causes obstruction and there is stasis of urine, that can also lead to infection. In either case, kidney stones are easily treated with ESWL as a simple outpatient procedure.

  • My father has been diagnosed with obstructive uropathy. Can this be treated?

    There are many treatments available, including medical therapy with alpha blockers, i.e., flomax, and 5 alpha reductase inhibitors, i.e., proscar, as well as minimally invasive procedures such as TUMT REZUM UROLIFT. TURP AND OPEN PROSTATECTOMY are other options. The minimally invasive treatments are very effective and I’ve done many of them and seen excellent results and have been able to get patients off of long-term medical therapy thereafter. READ MORE

  • Why don’t I have my urine coming in a normal flow?
