No, they didn't offer it here- public health system. The uro that was assigned to me who specializes in TURP said it was "experimental," to which I commented, "so is the Pfizer V . . ." but that didn't stop anything." So I pressed on the point that the uro assigned to me who specializes in HolEP, was assigned to me, why am I not with him? I don't want a TURP. So he made an appointment with that uro. I looked him up on LinkedIn, Google and under various clinics where he practices. I left that appointment, with conversation recorded on my phone.

Jump-cut to April of last year: By permission I recorded our conversation, in case he wasn't bi-lingual- I'm in Spain. He told me the same thing about PAE and I commented that there have been multiple studies over five years post and with success. In the context of our conversation of my working with medical lasers, he lit up like a Christmas tree about the Holmium by "product name!" and that he had performed more than 300 procedures.
I had some confidence in him, that is, until he told me that he probably won't be my surgeon. After THAT boner-killer, I asked who the most experienced with this nucleation is, to which he referred to himself- I signed a consent form and left with recording in hand, he was making his own, concluding that the whole of the practice is funded by private insurance and manufacturer of the laser, that there isn't any money in it for him and there are no interventional radiologists who to my knowledge are not making this practice an adjunct to their practice, likely because it's government controlled. That's the deal-killer. If I had a few grand "liquid pour," I would head over to where they do do it and hand over the cash.

I'm still on the waiting list since this April last, and I'm regarded as "priority" because of the indwelling catheter I've had since last August.
