EndoUrology and Urinary stone disease We provide consultation and treatment of urinary stone disease through a wide range of treatment options. These include laser fragmentation of the stone via a tiny endoscope to remove the stones without the need for any surgical incisions, and percutaneous renal surgery, a minimally-invasive procedure. Patients who require extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy (ESWL), a non-invasive method to treat stones, will be counselled accordingly and have it done off-site.
