A proactive approach to health involves understanding and managing potential risks. Dr. Shady Saikali 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:

• Erectile Dysfunction: Preventing erectile dysfunction often involves managing conditions like high blood pressure and diabetes, which improves cardiovascular health and reduces ED risk.
• Chronic Kidney Disease Stage I: Even though Chronic Kidney Disease Stage I is a mild stage of kidney disease, proactive management such as diet and medication can prevent further damage and serious health problems down the line.
• Testicular Hypofunction: Testicular hypofunction can affect sexual health and fertility; proactive screenings and lifestyle changes can help prevent or manage the condition and its consequences.
• Chronic Kidney Diseases: Regular check-ups and proactive lifestyle changes can help prevent or delay the onset of chronic kidney disease, a serious condition affecting kidney function.
• Bladder Cancer: Managing bladder cancer effectively often depends on early diagnosis, so staying informed about risk factors and seeking medical advice when needed is crucial.
• Male Sexual Arousal Disorders: Preventive steps, like open communication with your doctor about sexual health concerns, can help manage male sexual arousal disorders and improve intimacy.
• Nighttime Urination (Nocturia): Frequent nighttime trips to the bathroom could indicate a need for medical attention, making preventative care crucial for your urinary health.
• Vesicoureteral Reflux: To prevent serious kidney problems, it's vital to understand vesicoureteral reflux (VUR). VUR is a condition where urine flows backward from your bladder, potentially causing infections and kidney damage, making early diagnosis through preventive check-ups essential.
• Chronic Kidney Disease Stage III: Early detection of Chronic Kidney Disease Stage III is key; with proper monitoring and lifestyle changes, you can help prevent the condition from worsening and reduce the risk of serious complications.
• Chronic Bacterial Prostatitis: Chronic bacterial prostatitis is a serious condition requiring proactive management to minimize long-term impact on urinary health and overall well-being. Early detection is key.
• Prostate Cancer: Prostate cancer screenings are crucial for early detection, allowing for prompt treatment and improved outcomes.
• Chronic Prostatitis: Understanding your risk factors and seeking prompt medical attention for symptoms of chronic prostatitis allows for early intervention, preventing potential long-term health issues related to urinary and reproductive health.

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

• Prostate Biopsy: To ensure early detection of potential prostate problems, a prostate biopsy allows for a thorough examination of prostate tissue for cancerous or precancerous changes.
• 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.
• Prostate Removal: Prostate removal may be an option for men with significant prostate enlargement or cancer, acting as a preventative measure against urinary tract obstructions or further tumor growth.
• Prostatectomy with Robotic Assist: Taking a proactive step towards better health, robotic-assisted prostatectomy offers precise surgical removal of the prostate, potentially preventing further complications from prostate cancer or BPH.
• Uroflowmetry: Take charge of your urinary health: a uroflowmetry test can identify issues like bladder obstructions or weak bladder muscles before they become major problems.
• Vasectomy: Taking charge of family planning, a vasectomy offers a safe and effective way to prevent future conceptions.

Here are answers to some common questions about proactive Urologic care with Dr. Shady Saikali:

What is a Urologist?

Dr. Saikali 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. Saikali.

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. Saikali and our team offer many effective treatments to manage the urinary symptoms BPH can cause.

Do you treat children with urological problems?

Dr. Saikali's practice treats adult urological conditions. However, we can provide referrals to trusted pediatric urologists for children's urological concerns, including bedwetting, undescended testicles, and urinary reflux.

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. Saikali for diagnosis and treatment to prevent kidney infection.

What is a cystoscopy?

A cystoscopy is a common diagnostic procedure where our urologist, Dr. Shady Saikali, uses a thin tube with a camera (cystoscope) to look directly inside your bladder and urethra. This allows us to check for issues such as bladder tumors, stones, or sources of bleeding. It's a quick, routine office procedure.

What is an 'overactive bladder' (OAB)?

Overactive bladder (OAB) is a condition characterized by sudden, frequent, and urgent urges to urinate, sometimes difficult to control, which may lead to leakage. It's a common condition, and Dr. Shady Saikali can offer many effective treatments, including behavioral strategies, medications, and advanced therapies.

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.
