Just received this message. It's been 6 months since the patient got his Rezūm treatment at our clinic with Dr. Elterman. We're always happy to hear, although not surprised: this result is typical.

"I had a very enlarged prostate and struggled for over 20 years trying to manage my frequency of urination, urgency at times and great discomfort at public events. I was always looking for the washroom rather than enjoying myself or just suffering with dehydration because I was afraid to drink anything. But, I just did not feel comfortable with the standard TURP which would be major surgery and which could come with some life changing side effects.

Rezum became the perfect solution and it has changed my life. It was a minimally invasive procedure on an outpatient basis; only 15 minutes long and recover right away at home. Within a few months and improving every month from there forward, my urinary flow is like I am 30 years old again; no problems emptying the bladder, very little urgency and absolutely big leap in quality of life. I am so glad that I made the choice to connect with Dr. Elterman and get this done; it was worth every bit of time and effort."
