Here are answers to some common questions about proactive Urologic care with Dr. Leslie Deane:

What is a Urologist?

Dr. Deane 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. 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. Leslie Deane.

What is an 'overactive bladder' (OAB)?

Overactive bladder (OAB) is a common condition characterized by sudden, frequent, and urgent urination, sometimes difficult to control, which may lead to leakage. Dr. Leslie Deane can offer effective treatments, including behavioral strategies, medications, and advanced therapies.

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 prevention.

What is a varicocele and how does it affect fertility?

A varicocele is an enlargement of the veins within the scrotum, similar to a varicose vein in the leg. It can raise the temperature in the testicles, impairing sperm production, and is a common, correctable cause of male infertility.

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 male and female urinary tracts. Dr. Leslie Deane specializes in diagnosing and treating all types of female urinary incontinence, offering a range of solutions.

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. Importantly, it does not affect testosterone levels or sexual function.

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. Monthly self-exams are crucial for young men, as early detection is key to the very high cure rate for this cancer.
