Treatment of urology conditions at New Victoria Hospital

Upon arrival at our Hospital patients will be invited for a consultation with one of our expert Urologists to discuss their symptoms and any concerns they may have regarding their condition. They will then be given the relevant screening or test to identify the best course of treatment and whether it will be a medical or surgical intervention that is needed. Our urology consultants take a personalised approach to develop treatment plans that are specifically tailored to a patient's unique condition and symptoms.

Our treatment plans include:

Non Surgical Medical Interventions: Many urological conditions can be effectively managed through non-surgical treatments. Our urology team can suggest lifestyle changes, prescribe medications, or hormone therapy, depending on your specific condition. We will closely monitor a patient's progress, making adjustments as necessary, and providing ongoing support throughout their treatment.

Surgical Procedures: We offer a range of minimally invasive procedures, including laparoscopic and robotic-assisted surgeries, which can provide excellent outcomes with fast recovery times. More Invasive surgical procedures may be necessary for conditions such as circumcision or urologic cancers. Patients will be fully informed of the treatment plan and the possible complications and side effects if a surgical procedure is required.

Some of the specialised surgical procedures we provide are:

UroLift or Holmium Laser Enucleation for an enlarged prostate
Holmium Laser Lithotripsy for removal of kidney stones
Adult circumcision
Vasectomy
Microsurgical varicocele ligation

Throughout a patient's treatment, our multidisciplinary team will provide comprehensive care and support, answering any questions or concerns that may arise. After treatment, we will also provide thorough aftercare, instructions and schedule follow-up appointments as needed to monitor a patient's progress and address any further needs.
