Men’s Urological Care

We assess, diagnose, and treat males for the following:

Male Incontinence: Inability to control urine flow and release through the body. Male incontinence can be caused by weakened pelvic muscles, nerve damage, chronic constipation, and obesity.
Male Infertility: Inability to impregnate or produce robust and healthy sperm. Male infertility can be caused by sperm disorders, hormones, genetics, and medications.
Vasectomy: Procedure for sterilizing males and eliminating sperm production. It involves making small incisions, tying off the vas deferens, and heat-sealing the incisions after the procedure is complete.
Reverse Vasectomy: Procedure for reinstating male fertility and restimulating sperm production. It involves making a small incision and reconnecting the vas deferens so sperm can pass again.
Penile Prosthesis: Synthetic implants for supporting and stimulating erectile strength and rigidness. The implants inflate and deflate the penis, allowing full control over the erection.
Hypogonadism/Testosterone Replacement: Low testosterone levels affect sex drive, sleep habits, and concentration. These conditions can be caused by genetic disorders, diseases, and poor development.
Sperm Retrieval: Alternative to reverse vasectomies for those who want to conceive. It comprises extracting sperm from males with limited sperm production.
Peyronie’s Disease: Penile plaque buildup that impacts erectile tissue and shape. The most common cause of Peyronie’s disease is penile trauma caused by sexual and physical activity.
