What is Kidney Stone Treatment?

Kidney Stone Treatment involves the accurate diagnosis and expert management of stones that form in the kidneys or obstruct the urinary tract. While many stones pass naturally, our specialists provide cutting-edge minimally invasive surgical therapies to break up, remove, or prevent the recurrence of stones that cause pain, infection, or functional damage.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can all kidney stones be treated without major surgery?

Most stones can be treated with minimally invasive methods (Ureteroscopy). Major surgery (PCNL) is typically reserved for very large or complex stones.

How soon can I return to work after treatment?

For procedures like Ureteroscopy, many patients can return to work within 1 to 3 days, although this varies based on the size and complexity of the stone removal.
