In this episode of the Dr. Geo Podcast, Dr. Geo concludes a four-week exploration of treatments for benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) with a focus on Aquablation Therapy, an innovative robotic, heat-free treatment using water jet technology to address urinary issues caused by an enlarged prostate. Dr. Geo welcomes Dr. Chris Kelly, a urologist at NYU Langone Health and an expert in Aquablation, to share insights on this groundbreaking procedure.

Dr. Kelly delves into the benefits of Aquablation compared to traditional treatments such as TURP (transurethral resection of the prostate) and other minimally invasive options. Key topics include the science behind Aquablation, its ability to personalize treatment based on prostate size and shape, and its superior outcomes in preserving sexual function, especially ejaculation. The conversation also covers how Aquablation offers a faster recovery time and lower retreatment rates than other surgical options.

Key Points:

  • Differentiating urinary symptoms caused by BPH, prostatitis, or overactive bladder.
  • The role of diagnostic tools like urodynamic studies and post-void residual tests.
  • Factors influencing the choice of surgical treatments for BPH, including prostate size, bladder function, and patient goals.
  • Clinical evidence supporting Aquablation's safety and effectiveness, including studies showing its long-term benefits.

Dr. Kelly shares his experience with over 150 successful Aquablation procedures and provides practical advice for patients considering this therapy. Whether you're exploring treatment options for BPH or interested in advancements in urology, this episode offers a wealth of actionable information.

Don’t miss this in-depth discussion on a revolutionary approach to treating BPH.
