We are wrapping up 2020 with our last episode for the year. We thank all of you, our listeners, for your continued support, and we also thank all of our guests for continuing to deliver valuable information to help empower men and their loved ones.
We have just received the very good news that the Prostate Health Podcast not only made the list put out by Feedspot for the Top 15 Prostate Cancer Podcasts in the world for 2020 but also received the number one ranking for the year! That serves as motivation for us to continue working hard to produce valuable content for you, our listeners, as we go into 2021.
This year there has been a lot more awareness about the paradigm shift in how men with an enlarged prostate get treated. For this, the last episode of the year, we are bringing back the most listened-to episode of 2020, where our guest urologist, Dr. Steven Gange, talks about that paradigm shift. Stay tuned for more!
With over twenty-five years of clinical and research experience, Dr. Gange has developed specific expertise in Men’s Health Urology, emphasizing minimally invasive procedures. He was the first urologist in North America to perform the UroLift procedure for BPH (Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia) and the first urologist in the world to perform UroLift under local anesthesia.
Dr. Gange enjoys teaching urologists and proctoring procedures all across North America. He has lectured on BPH and UroLift at several national professional meetings and has co-authored several pivotal UroLift papers in the urology literature. Be sure to listen in today to hear what Dr. Gange has to share!
