Here are answers to some common questions about proactive Urologic care with Dr. Elie Antebi:

What is a Urologist?

Dr. Antebi 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 should start earlier, around age 40-45. This is a shared decision-making process with Dr. Antebi.

What are urodynamics?

Urodynamic testing is a series of tests evaluating how well the bladder and urethra store and release urine. This helps Dr. Antebi understand the precise cause of complex issues like incontinence or difficulty urinating, leading to a more effective treatment plan.

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. Antebi and his team offer many effective treatments to manage the urinary symptoms BPH can cause.

What are the most common signs of bladder cancer?

The most common and earliest sign of bladder cancer is blood in the urine, which may be visible or only detectable under a microscope. Other less common symptoms include frequent urination or pain during urination. Smoking is the single biggest risk factor for bladder cancer, so prevention is key.

What are the signs of a urinary tract infection (UTI)?

Common UTI symptoms include frequent or urgent urination, a burning sensation during urination, cloudy or strong-smelling urine, and pelvic pain. See Dr. Antebi for diagnosis and treatment to prevent potential kidney infection.

What is robotic surgery, and what are its benefits?

Robotic surgery, like the da Vinci® system, is a minimally invasive technique. A surgeon uses a console to control robotic arms with tiny instruments, leading to smaller incisions, less pain, reduced blood loss, and a faster recovery compared to traditional open surgery.

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. Regular monthly self-exams are crucial for early detection, as early diagnosis is key to the very high cure rate for this cancer.
