Time for a Men’s Health Check

Professor Rakesh Heer is a highly esteemed consultant urologist and Director for the Rapid Urology London clinic.

He has over 25 years of experience and is renowned for his expertise in managing urinary problems, prostate concerns, men’s sexual health and penile and scrotal conditions.

Many men are concerned about the health of their kidneys, bladder, prostate, testicles, and sexual function, even if they are not having symptoms. These are common complaints, but some men can find these concerns difficult to discuss. In a sympathetic and sensitive manner, the Rapid Urology London clinic provides a simple men’s health check. This includes lifestyle advice, testicular and prostate examinations, and blood and urine tests for a comprehensive check for diabetes, risk of heart disease, and early detection of kidney, bladder and prostate disease.

Patients commonly ask about:

Urinary symptoms: Men can experience a wide range of symptoms, such as reduced urinary flow, a feeling of incomplete emptying, going more often, and waking at night to use the toilet. There may also be urinary urgency and incontinence, having a profound effect on social life. The Rapid Urology London clinic provides prompt investigation and treatments tailored to individual needs, including the urgent assessment of blood in the urine.

Prostate health: Either with or without urinary symptoms, increasingly, men are concerned about prostate cancer, which is the commonest male cancer. Early detection is essential for best outcomes and the Rapid Urology London clinic provides access to state-of-the-art diagnostics and an unbiased review of management options, including expert surgery using cutting-edge robotics.

Erectile dysfunction and the “male menopause”: The “male menopause” is properly referred to as late-onset hypogonadism and describes the fall in testosterone levels as men age. This can affect up to 1 in 4 men over 40 years of age. Some men develop depression, loss of sex drive and erectile dysfunction. Other symptoms include mood swings, loss of muscle mass, reduced ability to exercise, fat redistribution (large belly or “man boobs”), a lack of energy, insomnia, and poor concentration and memory problems. The Rapid Urology London clinic provides specialist assessment and expert management for low testosterone and erectile dysfunction.

Whatever the concern, Rapid Urology London provides a caring approach, a rapid assessment and expert advice. Professor Heer offers both face-to-face and remote video consultations for private patients.
