Welcome to Singapore Urology Associates Online

We are a Singapore-based clinic specialising in the field of Urology. The clinic provides a complete range of services from the very basic urological procedure to major reconstruction surgery for advanced cancers, trauma or sexual realignment.

Recent years have witnessed a dramatic expansion in instrumentation and greater capability in treating a variety of urologic conditions with minimally invasive surgery. These approaches are preferred whenever possible, since they allow less tissue damage, faster recovery time, earlier resumption of normal activities and less scarring than open surgery. We offer these state-of-the-art treatment approaches, including laparoscopy, endoscopy, laser, and lithotripsy in management of the whole range of urological problems.

Endoscopic techniques have previously been used largely in the management of urologic stone disease. However, refinements and miniaturization of instruments have permitted the application of these techniques to other conditions (tumors, reconstructions, and a variety of inflammatory conditions), greatly expanding the role of these approaches. The major directions that have been pursued include the placement of operating instruments directly through the skin and into the kidneys to access the upper tracts and then further downward, and also placement of instruments into the urethra and bladder to access the upper tracts.

Laparoscopic surgery involves the performance of procedures through small openings in the abdominal and pelvic cavity through which surgical procedures can be performed without the need of making large incisions. Our surgeons are able to perform about 90 percent of all urologic abdominal surgeries using laparoscopic technology--including the removal of kidney and prostate cancers providing the same effects as traditional surgery

These techniques are now routinely used in surgery for removing of the kidney in particularly for kidney cancer but also for live-donor kidney transplant as well as for surgery of the adrenal glands. Partial nephrectomy (where only the tumor is removed and the major portion of the kidney is allowed to remain intact) are also being done with increasing regularity.

In addition, we have a team of very experienced senior urologist who are able to offer the state of the art robotic assisted radical prostatectomy . With the advantage of enhanced visualization and greater ergonomical movements offered by using the Da Vinci robotic system, our surgeons are able to incorporate these advantages and combine them with the proven surgical techniques of open surgery in an effort to achieve the best patient results.
