Dr. Hendricks has been performing advanced minimally invasive urology longer than the vast majority of urologists in the country. He has been doing urological laparoscopic oncology, including laparoscopy to remove kidney and prostate cancer, since the year 2000. He began utilizing the Da Vinci robotic system for advanced laparoscopic work in 2002. He has been doing prostatic cryosurgery since 1994 and kidney cryosurgery since 2004. He serves as a surgical proctor and regularly teaches other doctors how to perform robotic prostatectomy, kidney and prostate cryoablation, female pelvic floor reconstruction, and laser prostate treatment. Since using these new technologies, Dr. Hendricks has seen outcomes that are equivalent to more invasive techniques while allowing for quicker and easier recovery. This has benefited patients greatly, enhancing their quality of life.

From this page you can navigate by the link tabs on the left to some of the latest innovative techniques as well as common urological conditions. Most urological problems can be treated without the need for surgery. If a condition is found that could best be treated by surgery or if surgery is an option, then there are a variety of minimally invasive techniques that can be used which involve much less pain and quicker recovery than traditional open surgery.

State-of-the-art technology and new innovative techniques pervade all fields of urology. There are currently minimally invasive options for most urological cancers (prostate, kidney, bladder, and testicular), benign prostatic enlargement in men, pelvic floor disorders and incontinence in women, and kidney stones. Dr. Hendricks strongly believes that not offering these treatments in a quality fashion would be a disservice to his patients. He is one of few urologists around that has been trained and does all of them with regularity. Most urologists do not offer these techniques. Follow the link tabs for more information on each of these.
