Prostate cancer
-
Medical treatment: Treatment for prostate cancer depends on the stage of the disease and the patient's age and overall health. Elderly patients with minor symptoms, early stage cancer, or coexisting illness may be treated conservatively. Untreated prostate cancer may take years to become problematic. During this time, the physician monitors the patient's condition for any marked or sudden progression of the disease, which may signal the need for more aggressive treatment.
-
Surgical treatment: Radical prostatectomy or bilateral orchidectomy
Enlarged prostate
Today, Holmium Laser Enucleation of Prostate (HOLEP) is accepted worldwide as the preferred method of management for an enlarged prostate. The whole procedure takes around 45-90 minutes, depending on the size of the gland. This procedure is nearly bloodless as the laser beam seals the blood vessels as it cuts the gland.

RG urology treatment in Goa
India is a recent entrant into medical tourism but is fast becoming a preferred medical destination. The Indian government predicts that India's $17-billion-a-year healthcare industry could grow 13 per cent in each of the next six years, boosted by medical tourism. Long promoted for its cultural and scenic beauty, India is now being put on the international map as a haven for those seeking quality and affordable healthcare. Analysts say that as many as 150,000 medical tourists went to India in 2004.
In addition to the increasingly top class medical care, a major deciding factor for foreign patients considering medical tourism destinations is the very minimal or nonexistent waiting lists in Goa. Known for its hospitality for tourists, India has opened its doors to welcome medical patients and service seekers with the same hospitality.
