The cost of laser stone removal depends on factors such as stone size, location (kidney vs. ureter), procedure selected (RIRS vs. URSL vs. PCNL), and hospital room category. Most laser procedures qualify for partial or complete cashless coverage under major health insurance plans.
Yes. Medically necessary laser stone removal procedures like RIRS, URSL, and PCNL are standard treatments covered by private health insurance policies and corporate TPAs. Our team coordinates cashless hospitalization approvals to make the process hassle-free.
An Endourologist is a urology specialist with advanced sub-specialization training in closed, endoscopic, and laser procedures inside the urinary tract. This expertise allows them to treat kidney and ureteral stones using natural urinary channels without creating open surgical wounds or abdominal cuts.
Yes. Incisionless laser procedures like RIRS and URSL access the stone through natural urinary pathways under general or regional anesthesia, ensuring zero pain during the surgery. Because no skin cuts are made, there are no visible surgical scars.
In Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery (RIRS), a flexible digital ureteroscope is passed through the natural urinary passage directly into the kidney. High-precision laser energy (Holmium/Thulium) then pulverizes the stone into fine dust, which washes out naturally in the urine.
Most laser kidney stone procedures are performed as 24-hour daycare surgeries. Patients are typically admitted on the morning of the procedure and discharged either the same evening or the following morning.
Because RIRS involves zero external cuts or wounds, most working professionals can safely resume light desk jobs and daily routine activities within 24 to 48 hours after discharge.
Stones smaller than 5 mm often pass naturally with medication and increased fluid intake. Stones larger than 6-7 mm, or those causing severe flank pain, urinary tract obstruction, or kidney swelling (hydronephrosis), generally require laser stone removal.
Mini-PCNL (Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy) is recommended for large, stubborn, or staghorn kidney stones greater than 2 cm. It involves a miniature 0.5 cm keyhole access point on the back to break and directly extract large stone fragments.
Yes. As a specialist managing female urology conditions, Dr. Srikanth provides targeted diagnostic and therapeutic care for recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs), overactive bladder (OAB), stress urinary incontinence (leakage), and pelvic organ prolapse.
An Andrologist specializes in male sexual and reproductive health. Dr. Srikanth offers confidential evaluations and treatments for erectile dysfunction (ED), premature ejaculation, low testosterone, varicocele, and male factor infertility.
