Dr. Shimul Barua

He treats and advises on stones in the kidney, the ureter (the tube from the kidney) and the bladder, including surgery such as URS, PCNL and RIRS. He also treats tumours and cancers of the kidney, ureter, bladder, prostate, testis and penis, with surgery where needed.

Prostate problems are part of his work too, including an enlarged prostate (BPH), difficulty passing urine and urine getting blocked. He treats narrowing of the ureter at the kidney junction (UPJ), whether it is present from birth or comes from other causes, and narrowing of the urethra (urethral stricture), both with treatment and surgery. For bladder tumours he does endoscopic surgery (TURBT).

He sees testicular problems such as pain, swelling, hydrocele, varicocele and epididymitis. He also treats male infertility, erectile dysfunction (difficulty getting the penis hard) and premature ejaculation, among other conditions, and he sees children with urological problems.
