World-Renowned Urologist, J. Francois Eid, M.D., Expands Practice with Increased Treatment of Benign Prostate Hyperplasia (BPH)

Minimally invasive, non-surgical treatments for BPH include thermotherapy, or transurethral microwave therapy (TUMT). This office treatment, which is a breakthrough in the treatment of BPH, uses heat to reduce excess tissue pressing on the urethra from the enlarged prostate. No anesthesia is needed and thermotherapy is performed in less than an hour. Over 70% of men experience rapid relief of symptoms and are relieved of the burden of taking medication.
