Here are answers to some common questions about proactive Urologic care with Dr. Lisa PA:

What is a Urologist?

A urologist is a surgical specialist who diagnoses and treats conditions of the urinary tract in both men and women, and the male reproductive system. They 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 40-45. We believe in shared decision-making with Dr. Lisa PA to determine the best approach for you.

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

Most small kidney stones can be passed with increased fluids and pain management. For larger stones or those causing significant issues, Dr. Lisa PA can use minimally invasive procedures like shock wave lithotripsy or ureteroscopy to effectively remove the stone.

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 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 your risk of developing it. Dr. Lisa PA offers many effective treatments to manage the urinary symptoms BPH can cause.

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. Lisa PA understand the precise cause of complex issues like incontinence or difficulty urinating, leading to a more effective treatment plan.

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 to detect these changes early, as early detection is key to the very high cure rate for this cancer.

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

Yes, a urologist is the best choice for evaluating and treating urinary leakage. Urologists are experts in both male and female urinary tracts. Dr. Lisa PA specializes in diagnosing and treating all types of female urinary incontinence, offering solutions from pelvic floor therapy to minimally invasive procedures.
