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

• Bladder Function Test: A bladder function test helps assess how well your bladder stores and releases urine, allowing for early detection and management of potential problems.
• Augmentation Cystoplasty: As a proactive step in managing severe bladder dysfunction, augmentation cystoplasty reconstructs the bladder to increase its size and help alleviate symptoms like frequent urination and incontinence.
• Vasectomy: A vasectomy is a straightforward surgical procedure that serves as a permanent and highly effective form of male birth control.
• TURP (Transurethral Resection of Prostate) or Laser Destruction of Prostate: To prevent urinary tract complications from an enlarged prostate, consider TURP or laser prostate surgery as a minimally invasive treatment option.
• Varicocelectomy or Hydrocelectomy: Addressing potential fertility issues early is key; a varicocelectomy or hydrocelectomy can help resolve varicoceles or hydroceles, improving chances of conception.
• Prostate Biopsy: Taking a proactive step towards better health, a prostate biopsy involves a small tissue sample taken from the prostate gland to screen for cancerous cells.
• Complex Penile Surgery: Addressing penile issues through complex surgery ensures early intervention for conditions that may affect your urinary or reproductive health, preventing irreversible damage.
• Lithotripsy: As part of your overall urinary health plan, lithotripsy offers a non-invasive way to address kidney stones, reducing the need for more extensive procedures.
• Prostate Cancer Screening: Prostate cancer screenings are a proactive step in preventing serious health issues and ensuring better treatment chances.
• Bladder Scan: Protecting yourself from urinary tract complications begins with a bladder scan; it's a non-invasive way to assess your bladder function and catch problems before they worsen.
• Prostatectomy with Robotic Assist: This advanced surgical technique, robotic-assisted prostatectomy, helps remove the prostate with greater precision and potentially less invasiveness than traditional methods, improving recovery times and outcomes.
• Prostate Cancer Screening Exam (DRE): Take charge of your prostate health with a DRE; this simple exam can identify potential problems early on, potentially saving your life.

Here are answers to some common questions about proactive Urologic care with Dr. Yash Sachdev:

What is a Urologist?

Dr. Sachdev 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 ideally start earlier, around age 40-45. We encourage a shared decision-making process with Dr. Sachdev to determine the best screening plan for you.

Do you treat children with urological problems?

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

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. Sachdev's practice offers many effective treatments to manage the urinary symptoms BPH can cause.

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

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

How is Low Testosterone (Low T) diagnosed and treated?

Low testosterone is diagnosed with a simple blood test, typically performed in the morning. If your levels are low and you have symptoms, Dr. Sachdev can discuss safe and effective treatment options, such as gels, injections, or pellets.

I am a woman experiencing urinary leakage. Should I see a Urologist?

Yes, a urologist can help. Urologists are experts in both male and female urinary tracts. Dr. Sachdev specializes in diagnosing and treating all types of female urinary incontinence, offering solutions ranging from pelvic floor therapy to minimally invasive procedures.

What are urodynamics?

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