The equipment that lets us treat an enlarged prostate several ways, break up stones without surgery, and diagnose most problems the same day, in a comfortable setting with both outpatient and inpatient care.
Smile Urology offers Rezum water vapor therapy and UroLift for minimally invasive BPH treatment, Plasma TURIS for definitive resection, ESWL for stones, a 24-hour stone center, and same-day in-clinic diagnostics. Having the full range means the treatment is matched to the patient.
Water vapor therapy for BPH
Sterile steam shrinks an enlarged prostate while typically preserving sexual function — minimally invasive and office-based.
Prostatic urethral lift
Tiny implants hold the prostate open with no cutting or heating and a fast recovery.
Bipolar resection in saline
Definitive resection for larger prostates with a favourable safety profile versus older monopolar TURP.
Shock-wave lithotripsy
Breaks urinary stones into passable fragments without incision or general anesthesia.
Emergency stone infrastructure
Round-the-clock capability to assess and treat acute stone pain without a long wait.
In-clinic testing
Urinalysis, ultrasound, PSA and flow testing on site for same-visit answers.
The point of offering Rezum, UroLift and Plasma TURIS — rather than a single method — is that an enlarged prostate is not one problem with one answer. A small prostate in a man who wants to preserve ejaculation calls for a different approach than a large, heavily obstructing prostate. Having the tools to choose is what lets the recommendation follow the patient rather than the patient being fitted to whatever single treatment a clinic happens to offer. The same logic applies across the clinic: same-day diagnostics and a 24-hour stone center exist so that care is prompt and matched to what you actually need.
For an enlarged prostate, the modern options, Rezum and UroLift, aim to relieve obstruction while preserving sexual function, often without a hospital stay. They do not suit every prostate, which is exactly why Plasma TURIS remains available for larger or more obstructing glands that need definitive resection. Offering all three lets us start with the least invasive option that will work and reserve resection for when it is genuinely the right answer.
Much of what the clinic provides is unglamorous but decisive: on-site urinalysis, ultrasound, PSA and uroflowmetry mean that a patient who arrives with symptoms usually leaves the same visit with a diagnosis and a plan, rather than a series of return appointments. Paired with the 24-hour stone center, it is what allows the clinic to offer prompt, accurate care. The clinic pairs this modern equipment with a comfortable, welcoming interior and the ability to admit patients when a procedure calls for it, so that treatment and recovery are handled together rather than referred elsewhere.
