Kidney Stones
Advanced, proven effective methods for preventing and treating kidney
stones.
Kidney stones are serious business and require immediate attention. They
may start as a small aggravation in the kidney area, but can soon develop
into a very painful condition. But there are ways to prevent this problem.
If kidney stones are discovered early, they can often be treated easily,
without major surgery.
There are a number of ways to remove kidney stones. Let RTR Urology’s
doctors help you choose the best method for you.
• Shock wave (ESWL)
• Scope extraction (ureteroscopy) with holmium laser
• Mini incision removal (percutaneous nephrolithotomy)
Nearly half of all kidney stone patients have more within five years, but
proper care and regular checkups can prevent further episodes. Remember,
it’s important to catch kidney stones early, so call us at the first sign of
trouble.

“I was very worried when I woke up with severe
pain on my side. A kidney stone was diagnosed, then removed with a scope. I
was back to work a few days later. I was one of the unfortunate ones who had
several other stones. Over the years, I’ve found that RTR Urology
always had all the treatments. They even found that I have a metabolic
problem and prescribed the right medication. Now I haven’t had a stone in
over two years.”
