the private urologist said he had a long overdue TURP needed-(which when they attempted it at the VAMC the equipment broke during the procedure and neddless to say he couldnt pee in peace for along time after that) then the VAMC had no urologists for months after that-so our Congressman said we could go private(the urologist he privately had quitworking for the VA and had a private practice so he felt comfortable with him and trusted him)he successfully had the TURP with private uro. it wasnt cancer but a long overdue care - we thank our stars because the VAMC-would have removed his bladder unnecessarily --...ps. now he pees like a baby does
