Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) and Prostate Disorders

BPH, or an enlarged prostate, is common in aging men. Symptoms include frequent urination, weak urine flow, and incomplete bladder emptying. At UPNT, we provide advanced treatments for smaller prostates like the UroLift® procedure, Rezum procedure and iTIND as well as offering treatment options for men with intermediate to larger prostates. UPNT is one of the few Urology practices in the county that offers both the Aquablation procedure as well as prostate arterial embolization (PAE) with their own highly experienced interventional radiologist. Both of these procedures help preserve ejaculation function for men who continue to be sexually active. The HOLEP procedure and the Robotic Simple prostatectomy are also available to patients. Urology Partners has among the most experienced surgeons in the field of BPH therapy whatever the size or condition of their prostate.

Elevated PSA and the MRI Prostate Fusion Biopsy

A high PSA (prostate-specific antigen) level may signal prostate cancer. Early detection is crucial for effective treatment. UPNT uses advanced diagnostics including the latest PSA genetic testing markers. Most men should get a 3T prostate MRI prior to a biopsy and Urology Partners have teamed up with a few local radiology centers to offer the best images to evaluate which men require a biopsy.

If a prostate biopsy is warranted, the prostate fusion biopsy and the transperineal fusion guided biopsy are the best way to find prostate cancers. Most patients can have the procedure performed under anesthesia to make the experience easier to handle. UPNT has teamed up with local radiology programs to obtain the best 3T multiparametric MRI to locate any areas that my require a biopsy. UPNT also has the latest technology to find a cancer and evaluate next steps if that cancer requires treatment.

Kidney Stones: Prevention and Treatment

Kidney stones are painful and can lead to complications if untreated.

Kidney cancers can develop without noticeable symptoms. Early detection and treatment are crucial.
