Methodology
How We Evaluate Urology Centers
We evaluate centers against the same factors a careful patient or referring physician would weigh — credentials, capability, transparency, and continuity of care.
Evaluation criteria
- Physician credentials — verified medical degrees and licensure
- Board certification in urology or equivalent
- Fellowship training in endourology, minimally invasive surgery, or related
- Procedure availability across the modern BPH spectrum (Rezum, UroLift, TURP, HoLEP, PAE, simple prostatectomy)
- Accreditation status (JCI or recognized domestic equivalent), independently verifiable
- Transparency on cost, included services, and complication management
- Published outcomes or willingness to share institutional data
- International patient support — bilingual coordination, pre-travel consultation, post-discharge follow-up
- Continuity of care — documented hand-off for postoperative concerns after the patient returns home
- Safety infrastructure — board-certified anesthesia, ACLS-trained recovery staff, sterile processing, adverse-event tracking
