Here are answers to some common questions about proactive Urologic care with Dr. Juan Suarez:

What is a Urologist?

Dr. Suarez 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 begin earlier, around age 40-45. This is a shared decision-making process with Dr. Juan Suarez.

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 are the treatment options for Erectile Dysfunction (ED)?

Dr. Suarez and his team offer a variety of effective treatments for Erectile Dysfunction, including oral medications like Viagra® or Cialis®, vacuum devices, injections, and penile implants. We understand this is a sensitive issue and will work with you confidentially to find the best solution for your individual needs.

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 done in the office, that blocks the tubes carrying sperm. This procedure does not affect testosterone levels or sexual function.

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. Suarez for diagnosis and treatment to prevent potential kidney infection.

I have been diagnosed with a kidney stone. Will I need surgery?

Most small kidney stones can be passed with increased fluid intake and pain management. For larger stones or those causing significant issues, Dr. Suarez can use minimally invasive procedures like shock wave lithotripsy or ureteroscopy to break up or remove the stone.

What are the most common signs of bladder cancer?

The most common and earliest sign of bladder cancer is blood in the urine, which can be visible or microscopic. 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.
