We would like to share with you some exciting news regarding new treatments for patients with enlarged prostate (BPH). Are you tired of taking medications? Are you tired of paying for medications? Are you tired of side effects caused by your medication? Are you looking for a solution to your problem? If the answer is yes, we would like to make you aware of a new office-based procedure for the treatment of BPH (benign prostatic hyperplasia).
