A month ago I made an appointment with my new Urologist to establish a strategy for getting rid of my 15mm size kidney stone. He noted my previous history with prostate issues and started asking me questions about was my prostate. My PSA has been a little elevated for years and in fact, I had a biopsy six years ago that tested negative. He started telling me all the things they can do now if the prostate was interfering with normal body functions. We eventually got around to my kidney stone.
Today was my follow-up visit. From the start, he just wanted to talk about my prostate again. We discussed the results of a new prostate cancer screening blood test I took during the initial visit, apparently better than the PSA. He also told me to make additional appointments related to prostate evaluation and functioning. After 10 minutes he asked me if I had any additional questions and what else he could do for him. I very nicely told me my appointment was for my kidney stone. He was obviously embarrassed and apologized and said he was sorry. We then discussed the stone.
The more I think of it, prostate work must be pretty profitable these days. Would you go back to this guy?
