Many doctors lack the time to provide a full explanation about the diagnosis and recommended treatment of urological disorders to their patients. Patient Pictures - Urological Surgery illustrates, in a simple manner, the many operations that a urologist has to offer his patient. The diagrams are accompanied by concise explanations designed to answer the questions patients considering surgery are likely to ask.
