Bill, I just read some initial information on their website and elsewhere. Clearly they are selling aquablation, but it sounds like they have had good results. I am going to see a urologist soon and will ask him about it. Rezum was new to me and now this! There is a lot of recent interest in prostate removal. One important thing I found: Medicare covers it. https://www.surgicalroboticstechnology.com/news/growing-coverage-for-procept-biorobotics-aquablation-therapy/
One problem I found, specific to me is, that the closest recommended doctor is about 500 miles away. I don't know how many procedures he has performed.

@rfherald Thank you for the additional resources, they were very helpful in supporting what I think my decision will be. I am hoping to have this done next year. I spoke to someone who had Rezum and said it worked well but took about 4 months.
