Kidney Stones

Effective solutions using state-of-the-art techniques, such as minimally invasive surgery or shockwave therapy, with guidance to prevent recurrence.

Urological Cancers

Comprehensive care is available for bladder, kidney, and testicular cancers. Dr Hellig combines advanced diagnostic tools and cutting-edge treatment to offer personalised plans, ensuring the best outcomes for his patients.

Paediatric Urology

Paediatric Urology

Specialised care is provided for urological conditions in children, ranging from urinary tract issues to congenital abnormalities. With a patient and family-centred approach, young patients receive compassionate and expert attention.

Circumcision

Circumcision

Whether for newborns, children, or adults, each case is approached with individualised attention to meet the unique needs of the patient. Post-procedural support and guidance are also provided to promote optimal recovery and well-being.

Undescended Testes

Undescended Testes

Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial to prevent potential complications, such as fertility issues and an increased risk of testicular cancer. Treatment typically involves careful monitoring, hormone therapy, or surgical intervention, depending on the child's age and specific circumstances.

Reconstructive Urology

Reconstructive Urology

For those requiring surgical repair of the urinary tract, Dr Hellig offers advanced reconstructive urology services. Focused on restoring functionality and comfort, these procedures are tailored to meet each patient’s unique needs.

Laser Prostate Surgery

Laser Prostate Surgery

Dr Hellig also specialises in laser prostate surgery, a minimally invasive procedure designed to treat conditions such as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).

Fluid Hernia Treatment

Fluid Hernia Treatment

Fluid hernia treatment is another area of expertise for Dr Hellig. This surgical option uses fluid to reduce the size of a hernia, resulting in less pain and a quicker recovery time. Utilising advanced techniques, the aim is to alleviate discomfort and address the underlying cause effectively.

Cystoscopy

Cystoscopy

This minimally invasive technique involves the use of a thin, flexible instrument called a cystoscope, which is equipped with a camera and light source to provide clear visualisation of the urinary tract. Cystoscopy is commonly used to diagnose conditions such as bladder infections, urinary tract abnormalities, and the presence of bladder stones or tumours.
