Here are answers to some common questions about proactive Urologic care with Dr. Mitchell Yadven:

What is a Urologist?

Dr. Yadven and our team of urologists are surgical specialists who diagnose and treat conditions of the urinary tract in both men and women, as well as 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. Yadven.

What is an 'overactive bladder' (OAB)?

Overactive bladder is a common condition characterized by sudden, frequent, and urgent urges to urinate, sometimes leading to leakage. Dr. Yadven can discuss various effective treatments, including behavioral strategies, medications, and advanced therapies.

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

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

What is a cystoscopy?

A cystoscopy is a common diagnostic procedure where a thin tube with a camera (cystoscope) is used to look directly inside the bladder and urethra. This allows the urologist to check for issues like bladder tumors, stones, or bleeding. It's a quick, routine office procedure.

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.

How can I prevent future kidney stones?

Preventing future kidney stones is key. Increasing your fluid intake, especially water, is the most important step. Dr. Yadven may also recommend specific dietary changes or medications, depending on the type of stone, to reduce the risk of recurrence.

What are urodynamics?

Urodynamic testing is a series of tests that evaluate how well the bladder and urethra are storing and releasing urine. It helps Dr. Yadven understand the precise cause of complex issues like incontinence or difficulty urinating, leading to a more effective treatment plan.
