Cut the Waiting, not the Care
Prostate cancer is New Zealand’s most commonly diagnosed cancer after skin cancer
Every year over 4000 men are diagnosed with prostate cancer in New Zealand and over 700 men die from this disease. Prostate cancer is the second highest cause of cancer death in NZ, after lung cancer.
“The worst part was the waiting. The wait for the appointment, the MRI, the biopsy, and the wait for the results. Not knowing was stressful for me and my family."
At Ormiston Urology, we understand the anxiety elevated PSA levels can cause your patients and their families. That's why we're proud to offer New Zealand's only Fast Track PSA Clinic, where rapid diagnosis is the standard of care.
How does it work?
We have streamlined a process that can take 6 to 12 weeks from the first specialist appointment with a Urologist till the time a patient knows whether or not he has prostate cancer.
We have managed to compress this into a 72 hour time frame made up of the following steps :
Day 1
Prostate MRI scan
Appointment with Urologist
Prostate biopsy (if required)
Day 3
Meet with Urologist for biopsy results
Treatment discussion with Urologist
Treatment discussion with Radiation Oncologist
