Here are answers to some common questions about proactive Urologic care with Dr. Christian PA-C:

What is a Urologist?

Dr. Christian PA-C and our team are urologists, surgical specialists who diagnose and treat conditions of the urinary tract in both men and women, and the male reproductive system. We manage a wide range of issues, from kidney stones and urinary tract infections to cancers of the prostate, bladder, and kidneys.

At what age should men start discussing prostate cancer screening?

Discussions about prostate cancer screening, including the PSA blood test, typically begin around age 50 for average-risk men. However, for higher-risk men, such as African American men or those with a family history, this conversation should ideally start earlier, around age 40-45. This is a shared decision-making process with Dr. Christian PA-C.

What is a vasectomy?

A vasectomy is a safe, simple, and highly effective form of permanent male contraception. It's a minor surgical procedure, often performed in the office, that blocks the tubes carrying sperm. This procedure does not affect testosterone levels or sexual function.

What is BPH (Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia), and is it related to cancer?

BPH is a very common, non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate gland that occurs as men age. It is not prostate cancer and does not increase the risk of developing it. Dr. Christian PA-C and our team offer many effective treatments to manage the urinary symptoms BPH can cause.

What is a cystoscopy?

A cystoscopy is a common diagnostic procedure where our urologist, Dr. Christian PA-C, uses a thin tube with a camera (cystoscope) to look directly inside your bladder and urethra. This allows us to check for issues like bladder tumors, stones, or sources of bleeding. It's a quick, routine office procedure.

How is Low Testosterone (Low T) diagnosed and treated?

Low testosterone is diagnosed with a simple blood test, typically performed in the morning. If your levels are low and you have symptoms, Dr. Christian PA-C can discuss safe and effective treatment options, including gels, injections, or pellets.

Can erectile dysfunction be a sign of another health problem?

Yes, erectile dysfunction (ED) can often be an early warning sign of underlying cardiovascular disease, diabetes, or other health issues. A consultation with Dr. Christian PA-C is not just about treating ED, but also a proactive step in a comprehensive health screening.

How can I prevent future kidney stones?

Preventing future kidney stones is key. Increasing your fluid intake, especially water, is crucial. Dr. Christian PA-C may also recommend dietary changes or medications, depending on the type of stone, to lower your risk of recurrence.
