Urologix Appearing on The Balancing Act Airing on Lifetime

Urologix is very proud to announce that we will be appearing on The Balancing Act, airing on Lifetime this June 4th and again on June 11th. As part of our dedication to the men and loved ones affected by BPH, we teamed up with Lifetime to discuss BPH as a disease and the benefits and risks of various therapies including our own in-office minimally invasive treatments. Urologix physician proctor, Dr. Robert Pugach will appear alongside a Cooled ThermoTherapyTM patient to discuss their thoughts, results and experiences.

The show, which reaches millions of people throughout the nation, will help us in our goal to increase awareness of minimally invasive BPH treatments. In-office BPH therapies such as Cooled ThermoTherapy and Prostiva® RF are often unknown to prospective patients. We aim to change that by showing how effective, safe and long-lasting our treatments can be. Our in-office BPH therapies can be an excellent alternative to medications that often have serious side effects and may not be very effective for some men. By using targeted heat therapy – either microwaves or radio frequency waves – our technologies can effectively treat the enlarged prostate with one short 30-60 minute office visit. Within 10 weeks, the patient will feel the full benefits of the treatment, which may last for five years or more. Patients will be able to void more effectively and increase their urinary flow. Common symptoms of urgently running to the bathroom or frequently waking up at night due to BPH are improved or even eliminated.

We look forward to our upcoming partnership with Lifetime and we invite you to join us for the first airing on June 4th at 7:00am.
