Prostate Health Services

Comprehensive prostate care is available for Sydenham men, including PSA testing interpretation, digital rectal examination, and advanced diagnostic procedures such as MRI-fusion prostate biopsy. Dr Dias ensures thorough evaluation and clear communication of findings and treatment options.

For men diagnosed with prostate cancer, treatment options span from active surveillance for low-risk disease to robotic radical prostatectomy for localised cancer. Dr Dias's extensive experience in robotic surgery ensures patients receive technically excellent surgical care with optimised functional and oncological outcomes.

Benign Prostate Enlargement

Urinary symptoms from benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) can significantly affect quality of life. Sydenham patients experiencing frequency, urgency, weak stream, or incomplete bladder emptying can access thorough evaluation and a range of treatment options tailored to individual circumstances.

Treatment options include medication management and minimally invasive surgical procedures such as HoLEP (Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate), UroLift, Rezum, and iTIND. These modern techniques offer effective symptom relief with rapid recovery times.

Kidney Stone Treatment

Kidney stones are effectively managed through Dr Dias's practice. Patients from Sydenham and the surrounding Brimbank area can access comprehensive stone services including urgent assessment for acute presentations and definitive surgical treatment.

Modern surgical techniques including flexible ureteroscopy with laser lithotripsy provide excellent stone clearance with minimal discomfort and rapid recovery. For patients with recurrent stones, metabolic evaluation helps identify risk factors and prevention strategies.

Robotic Surgery Expertise

Dr Dias is fellowship-trained in robotic surgery, offering Sydenham patients access to the most advanced surgical techniques available. Robotic surgery provides significant benefits including enhanced precision, smaller incisions, reduced blood loss, and faster recovery compared to traditional open surgery.

Robotic procedures are available for prostate cancer, kidney cancer, bladder cancer, and complex reconstructive urological conditions. All surgeries are performed at accredited private hospitals equipped with the latest da Vinci robotic surgical systems.

Bladder and General Urology

Dr Dias provides comprehensive care for bladder conditions including overactive bladder, urinary incontinence, recurrent urinary tract infections, and bladder cancer. Diagnostic services including cystoscopy and urodynamic testing help establish accurate diagnoses.

General urological services including vasectomy, circumcision, and scrotal surgery are also available. Dr Dias ensures all patients receive thorough consultation, clear explanation of procedures, and high-quality surgical care.
