A circumcision is a procedure to remove the foreskin (skin that covers the head of the penis).
A cystolitholapaxy is a minimally invasive procedure used to remove bladder stones. During the procedure, a small camera is passed through the urethra into the bladder, allowing the stone to be visualized and broken into smaller pieces using specialized instruments or energy sources.
A cystoscopy is a common procedure performed in order to see the inside of the urethra and the bladder using a small, lighted telescope-like instrument called a cystoscope. It is commonly used for the diagnosis of abnormalities in the urethra and bladder that may not be seen well on an X-Ray, MRI, or CT scan.
Dr. Phan is highly experienced in Foley catheter placement and removal, as well as the management of suprapubic catheters.
Shockwave lithotripsy (SWL) is a non-invasive treatment used to break kidney or ureteral stones into smaller fragments using focused sound waves. These fragments can then pass naturally through the urinary tract, reducing pain and obstruction without the need for surgery or incisions.
A TURP procedure is commonly used to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). During a TURP procedure, a resectoscope with a wire loop is inserted through the urethra towards the bladder to scrape off obstructing prostate tissue.
TURBT is a minimally invasive procedure used to diagnose and treat bladder tumors. Using a specialized scope passed through the urethra, the tumor is carefully removed from the bladder wall for treatment and pathological evaluation, helping relieve symptoms and guide further care.
HoLEP is a minimally invasive procedure for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Using a laser, excess prostate tissue is precisely removed to relieve urinary obstruction, improve urine flow, and reduce symptoms, often with less bleeding and a quicker recovery compared to traditional surgery.
