Urology

South Shore Health's urology experts use sophisticated technologies to provide patients with accurate diagnoses and personalized treatment plans. We offer treatment in all areas of adult urology and specialize in the latest minimally-invasive surgical interventions for prostate and kidney cancer.

We specialize in the latest minimally-invasive surgical interventions with onsite access to the da Vinci® Robotic Surgical System, while also offering the latest in technologies including Greenlight and microwave therapy to treat enlarged prostates. Minimally-invasive surgeries offer precision to yield faster recoveries, less dependence on pain medications post-surgery, and more precise surgical maneuvers guided by the surgeon.

Advanced laser procedures use concentrated light to generate precise and intense heat to treat urological conditions such as Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH). The laser procedures have proven successful at delivering long-lasting symptom relief and fast return to normal activities in patients with enlarged prostates.

We collaborate closely with other experts when necessary, including kidney specialists and specialists from Dana-Farber Brigham Cancer Center in clinical affiliation with South Shore Hospital.
