Patient Reviews for Steven Gange, MD, FACS

When my BPH symptoms became so bothersome as to constitute an unbearable annoyance, as were the side affects of prescribed medications, I began to search for another option. Most surgical options had their own undesirable side effects. Even ablation procedures were pretty invasive and required catheterization for an unacceptable period of time. When I discovered the Urolift, it seemed to be the perfect solution, but I found that every practitioner I contacted insisted on performing the procedure under general anesthesia with it’s concomitant intubation and ICU recovery. Not to mention the gross immodesty of the lithotomy position in an operating room full of strangers. Plus, it seemed like unnecessary overkill for a procedure that itself is completed in less than five minutes.

In searching the Internet I came across the name of Dr. Steven Gange who was one of the principal investigators in the clinical trials that lead to FDA approval of the Urolift procedure. I tracked him down and found he was a practicing Urologist in Salt Lake City. I e-mailed him outlining my concerns and he promptly responded explaining that he performs the procedure under local anesthesia exclusively and that the work-up and procedure itself could be handled in his office with complete accommodation of any modesty issues I might have.

I was so impressed, I flew from the East Coast to Salt Lake City, had the qualifying work-up done on Monday, the procedure on Tuesday and was on a plane home Thursday morning. The results were as promised and I couldn’t be more pleased with the entire experience. I highly recommend Dr. Gange and Summit Urology.

I had my Urolift one month ago. It has improved my urinary problems in a dramatic way. The procedure was more painful than expected but worth it. I still have some problems when I sheep but it is improving every day. Sexual function has improved to normal. I highly recommend Urolift for BPH. I think with time my body will relearn I don't have the blockage I had and adjust for the better. Thank you Dr Gange

I had the UroLift procedure 3 days ago. At this time there is no discomfort, and the advantages of this procedure are already evident.
Dr. Gange was very informative about the procedure, and he was extremely straitforward with the facts about the UroLift.
Dr. Gange and his entire staff were very caring and professional throughout the procedure and followup care.

UroLift has been life changing. I'll be forever grateful for Dr Gange's research and adoption of this technique. His approach to my evaluation and treatment was professional and compassionate.

PCP-referred patient of Dr. Gange for about 3 yrs now. No problems; good care, fine Dr. doing "good medicine," good office.

After doing personal "due diligence" research, had Dr. G's recommended "Urolift" (which he helped develop) done 20 mo. ago as soon as procedure received Medicare + Tricare For Life approval. OTHER than the procedure being a lot(!) more painful than told to expect, it went well he & I are pleased with results.

OVERALL? Glad my PCP sent me "Gange & Co." Good urology clinic to grow old with 🙂
