Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) Surgery Options

I live about 2 1/2 hours south of JAX. I reported to the Mayo at around noon for some afternoon pre-op tests. I spent that night (first night) in the hotel on campus. Next day I went into surgery for the HOLEP procedure…after leaving the recovery room, stayed the second night in the hotel on campus where hospital staff help would be available if needed. The next morning, went to the hospital to have the Foley removed. Because we were not local, the procedure is for us to stay the third night at the hotel. The following morning, I went for a test to insure everything was good….and then went home. It was easy moving between the hotel and the hospital as it is within easy walking distance….or hotel shuttles run every 10-15 minutes. Hope this answers your question!
