Here are answers to some common questions about proactive Urologic care with Dr. Joshua White:

What is a Urologist?

Dr. White and our team of urologists are surgical specialists who diagnose and treat conditions of the urinary tract in men and women, and the male reproductive system. We manage everything 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 decision is best made in a shared discussion with Dr. White.

What are the treatment options for Erectile Dysfunction (ED)?

Dr. White and our team offer many effective, modern treatments for ED. Common first steps include oral medications like Viagra® or Cialis®, but other options such as vacuum devices, injections, and penile implants are also available. We can discuss these options confidentially and help you find the best solution for your needs.

Can erectile dysfunction be a sign of another health problem?

Yes, erectile dysfunction (ED) can often be an early warning sign of underlying cardiovascular disease, diabetes, or other health issues. A consultation with Dr. Joshua White is not just about treating ED, but also an important step in a proactive, overall health screening.

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, which can impair sperm production, and is a common, correctable cause of male infertility.

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

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

Diagnosis involves a simple morning blood test to measure testosterone levels. If levels are low and symptoms are present, Dr. White can discuss safe and effective testosterone replacement therapies, like gels, injections, or pellets.

What is a cystoscopy?

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