"Men with prostate issues (especially elevated Psa) should not see Dr Koski. I started seeing her 2…read moreyears ago because I had an elevated Psa. She obliged me with random blood tests resulting in ambiguity as to whether I had prostate cancer. After two years of this I went for a second opinion from another urologist. He recommended I have a prostate MRI immediately. I did and it showed a likely cancerous tumor which was biopsied and I was diagnosed with prostate cancer. I take some responsibility for not being a better self advocate. I do feel Dr Koski seemed pretty uninterested and at times condescending. Find a better Dr for your prostate health! Early diagnosis and good quality care will help your outcome and mental outlook."

His bedside manner is fantastic. He talked me through every step the entire time and even kept the mood light with normal chit-chat to distract from the moment. It made a big difference. Recovery has been smooth because I followed his instructions to a T. One thing that really stuck with me was when he reminded me that, despite any uncertainty or temporary unpleasantry leading up to the procedure, the recovery and overall risk for a man is far less than what a woman goes through with a permanent procedure. That perspective alone is reason enough to do it. Highly recommend Dr. Benderev if you're considering this. Professional, clear, and genuinely considerate.

I am writing to document the timeline and details surrounding my medical care that began on…read moreNovember 28, 2023. During an initial consultation, Dr. Philip Bosch diagnosed me with Interstitial Cystitis, a diagnosis made without conducting any diagnostic tests. Following this, I was advised to undergo bladder instillation treatments twice weekly throughout December. In January, I advocated for further investigation and requested a bladder cystoscopy. The procedure subsequently revealed no abnormalities within my bladder. Despite this finding, Dr. Bosch suggested that cystoscopy was not the definitive method for diagnosing Interstitial Cystitis. Throughout this period, I consistently reported persistent pain during my instillation appointments, yet I was repeatedly assured of my eventual recovery and healing. As my symptoms continued without improvement, I eventually suggested that the source of my discomfort might be ovarian rather than bladder-related and requested a referral to a gynecologist. Consequently, I was referred to Dr. Karen Kohatsu. Regrettably, Dr. Kohatsu also proceeded without conducting comprehensive diagnostic tests to ascertain the underlying cause of my symptoms. My bladder instillation treatment continued for approximately ten months under this course of care. My situation significantly shifted when I sought a consultation with Dr. Daniel Burgess, a surgeon based in Encinitas. Dr. Burgess demonstrated a thorough understanding of my symptoms and, despite not being a gynecologist, promptly recognized the possibility of Endometriosis, facilitating an immediate referral to a specialist in that field. Following extensive diagnostic testing by the referred gynecologist, I received a confirmed diagnosis of Stage 4 Endometriosis. This advanced stage of the disease necessitated a complete hysterectomy, oophorectomy, and cervix removal. Post-operative findings tragically revealed that the Endometriosis had also spread to my rectum. It is my profound concern that an earlier and accurate diagnosis could have potentially prevented the extensive progression of the disease to my rectum and necessitated such invasive surgery. The prolonged period of misdiagnosis and the diagnostic approach taken during the initial phases of my care have led to significant distress and a far more severe and irreversible treatment outcome than might otherwise have been necessary.

Other Urologist told me it was neurological and I was diagnosed with an almost unhopeful disorder. I felt so defeated. That is, as until I met Dr Dicks. After various tests, it was not neurological, but physical. Benign prostate. Dr Dicks, with the assistance of Scripps Medical, performed Green Light Laser Therapy on my enlarged prostate and within days, allowed me to urinate like a 15 year old! I was moved to tears. I owe much to Dr Dick, he is a gentle down-to-earth surgeon. He gave me confidence, with his own confidence, to take this journey for surgery and it has changed my life entirely. If you are even uncertain about your urinary situation, I urge you to seek his evaluation. You may receive hope you never thought you would.......

After two months I noticed by body still had the prolapse but in addition I was using the bathroom more at night, sex was painful, and I'd lost a fair amount of strength as not able to lift any weights after my surgery. Bottom line is I was better off not doing anything. Was hopeful and the Drs were friendly but the bottom line was I was worse off than before I went. Dr Shapiro suggested I return to using a pessary which I was before- thx to a nurse at tru-care who suggested I find a gehalte Dr at Scripps. Sadly on Medicare I went to tri-city which is where these drs work from. What could improve?
