A proactive approach to health involves understanding and managing potential risks. Dr. Daniel Ead provides expert care for a range of conditions, focusing on early detection and effective management to support your long-term wellness. Common areas of focus include:

• Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STDs): Many STDs are curable, so proactive screening and prompt treatment are key to preventing serious health issues down the line.
• Neurogenic Bladder: Since neurogenic bladder results from nerve damage affecting bladder emptying, managing any contributing neurological conditions through regular check-ups can help prevent complications like urinary tract infections and kidney problems.
• Kidney Cancer: Managing risk factors like smoking and high blood pressure can greatly reduce your chances of developing kidney cancer.
• Prostate Cancer: Prostate cancer screenings are crucial for early detection, allowing for prompt treatment and improved outcomes.
• Urethrovaginal Fistula: Preventing complications from a urethrovaginal fistula, an abnormal opening between the urethra and vagina, relies on prompt medical attention and treatment to avoid long-term urinary and reproductive issues.
• Irradiation Cystitis: Irradiation cystitis is a potential consequence of radiation treatment, but proactive monitoring and early intervention strategies can minimize its impact on your urinary health.
• Kidney Stones: Kidney stones often have preventable causes; by focusing on hydration and dietary adjustments, you can significantly lower your risk.
• Chronic Kidney Disease Stage I: Chronic Kidney Disease Stage I is an early stage of kidney damage, and catching it now through regular checkups helps prevent it from getting worse.
• Chronic Kidney Disease Stage IV: Having reached Chronic Kidney Disease Stage IV indicates a serious decline in kidney function, emphasizing the need for proactive healthcare and lifestyle changes to mitigate the risk of dialysis or kidney transplant.
• Bladder Carcinoma: Protecting your bladder health involves knowing the signs of bladder cancer and getting screened regularly to catch it in its earliest stages for better treatment outcomes.
• Scrotal Pain: Preventing future issues with your reproductive system starts with paying attention to your body. If you have scrotal pain, see a doctor to determine the cause and receive appropriate care.
• Blood in Urine (Hematuria): Don't wait to address blood in your urine; timely diagnosis and treatment can help prevent long-term damage and preserve your urinary system's health.

This list highlights some common health concerns and is for informational purposes only. The best way to understand your personal health and create a prevention plan is to schedule a consultation. Accurate diagnosis and personalized treatment plans are developed based on individual patient evaluations.

Taking proactive steps is central to long-term health. Dr. Daniel Ead offers a range of key preventive screenings and services designed to provide crucial insights into your health and support your well-being:

• Augmentation Cystoplasty: As a proactive step in managing severe bladder dysfunction, augmentation cystoplasty reconstructs the bladder to increase its size and help alleviate symptoms like frequent urination and incontinence.
• Urinary Stone Removal (Litholapaxy): Take control of your urinary health: litholapaxy effectively eliminates kidney stones, reducing the risk of infections and blockages.
• Augmentation Cystoplasty Robotic Assist: This proactive surgical procedure, augmentation cystoplasty, may utilize robotic assistance to improve bladder capacity and function, effectively managing urinary issues and enhancing overall well-being.
• Prostate Cancer Screening Exam (DRE): A digital rectal exam (DRE) is a quick check that helps detect early signs of prostate cancer, allowing for timely treatment and improving your chances of a positive outcome.
• Bladder Surgery: Addressing bladder problems early through surgery can significantly reduce the risk of long-term health issues and improve quality of life.
• Uroflowmetry: Uroflowmetry is a non-invasive screening tool that helps identify and potentially prevent serious urinary problems, allowing for timely intervention.
• Cystometry: Cystometry is a simple test that measures your bladder's function, helping us identify and address potential problems early, preventing future urinary issues.
• Prostate Biopsy: A prostate biopsy is a procedure that helps detect prostate cancer early, when treatment is most effective.
• Prostatectomy with Robotic Assist: This advanced surgical technique, robotic-assisted prostatectomy, helps remove the prostate with greater precision and potentially less invasiveness than traditional methods, improving recovery times and outcomes.
• Cystotomy: Taking a proactive role in your urinary health, a cystotomy allows for thorough assessment of your bladder, improving the chance of early diagnosis and effective management of any underlying issue.
• Vasectomy: Proactively managing your reproductive health, a vasectomy provides a reliable and long-term method of birth control.
• Complex Penile Surgery: Complex penile surgery may be necessary to correct structural problems affecting urination or sexual function, improving your long-term health and well-being.

Here are answers to some common questions about proactive Urologic care with Dr. Daniel Ead:

What is a Urologist?

Dr. Ead and our team of urologists are 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. For higher-risk men, such as African American men or those with a family history, this conversation may begin earlier, around age 40-45. This decision is best made in a shared discussion with Dr. Ead.

I am a woman experiencing urinary leakage. Should I see a Urologist?

Yes, a urologist is the best choice for urinary leakage. Urologists are experts in both the male and female urinary tract. Dr. Ead specializes in diagnosing and treating all types of female urinary incontinence, offering solutions from pelvic floor therapy to minimally invasive procedures.

What is an 'overactive bladder' (OAB)?

Overactive bladder (OAB) is a condition characterized by sudden, frequent, and urgent urges to urinate, sometimes making it difficult to control your bladder and leading to leakage. It's a common condition, and Dr. Ead can offer many effective treatments, including behavioral strategies, medications, and advanced therapies.

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. Daniel Ead is not just about treating ED, but also an important step in a proactive, overall health screening.

Do you treat children with urological problems?

Dr. Ead and our team treat a range of adult urological conditions. While we do not see children, we can provide referrals to trusted pediatric urologists for issues like bedwetting, undescended testicles, and urinary reflux.

What is the most common sign of testicular cancer?

The most common sign of testicular cancer is a painless lump or swelling in a testicle. Early detection through monthly self-exams is crucial, as this type of cancer has a very high cure rate when caught early.

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

Diagnosis involves a simple morning blood test to measure testosterone levels. If levels are low and symptoms are present, Dr. Ead can discuss safe and effective testosterone replacement therapy options, such as gels, injections, or pellets.
