David Schwartzwald, M.D., Offers Advanced Treatment Options To Men And Women
David Schwartzwald, M.D., offers state-of-the-art care to patients with troubling urinary tract conditions, such as an enlarged prostate, erectile dysfunction, urinary tract infections, bladder or prostate cancer, and kidney stone disease.
“We are the only practice in South Florida to be awarded the UroLift Center of Excellence designation for our extensive experience with this advanced technique for treating men with BPH [benign prostate hyperplasia],” says Dr. Schwartzwald, a board certified urologist and a diplomate of the American College of Surgeons, who leads the professional team at Urology Care Specialists in Boca Raton.
A leader in his field, he was the first urologist to perform brachytherapy (radioactive seed implantation) for prostate cancer in the Boca Raton area.
About 12 million American men are diagnosed each year with BPH, which can cause frequent urination, straining to empty the bladder and reduced sexual performance. Along with traditional medications and surgery, Dr. Schwartzwald offers the UroLift procedure, inserting a tiny FDA-approved device to open the urinary tract.
National studies show that the UroLift device has a long-term impact, with more than 50 percent of patients reporting a higher quality of life five years after the procedure.
“You wouldn’t think something so small could have such an impact on a man’s quality of life,” says Dr. Schwartzwald. “This revolutionizes the treatment of BPH, allowing many patients to go off their medications without interfering with sexual functioning.”
He treats men with Peyronie’s disease, an abnormal curvature of the penis, as well as those with sexual difficulties due to diabetes, prostate cancer and cardiovascular disease who may need medical correction of their erectile dysfunction with injection therapy or surgical correction with penile prosthetic devices. Dr. Schwartzwald has also helped many women with urinary tract infections, incontinence, cancer, and other kidney and bladder conditions.
He has been in practice in Boca Raton since 1987 and is affiliated with area hospitals and the Boca Raton Outpatient Surgery & Laser Center.
As Dr. Schwartzwald says, “Our experienced urology nurses and office staff provide personalized, compassionate care.”
