Dr. Raju R

Dr. Raju R is a Consultant Urologist and Andrologist with more than two decades of clinical and surgical experience in managing kidney, urinary, prostate, and male reproductive health conditions. He is widely consulted as a urologist in Bangalore for both routine urinary problems and advanced surgical care.

Patients commonly visit him for burning during urination, blood in urine, severe flank pain, difficulty passing urine, prostate enlargement, swelling in the scrotum, fertility concerns, and sexual health issues. His approach begins with careful evaluation, accurate diagnosis, and a clear explanation of available treatment options.

As a kidney stone doctor in Bangalore, Dr. Raju manages stones using modern minimally invasive techniques. Kidney stones can cause sharp back pain, nausea, vomiting, and urinary discomfort. Depending on stone size and location, treatment options include RIRS (Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery), URS, PCNL, ESWL, and Holmium laser stone removal. These advanced laser procedures help remove stones effectively while minimizing pain and hospital stay.

For prostate-related problems, he provides comprehensive care for enlarged prostate (Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia), prostatitis, and urinary obstruction. Laser prostate surgery is often recommended when medication does not provide sufficient relief. Laser techniques reduce bleeding, improve urine flow, and allow faster recovery compared to traditional open surgery.

Dr. Raju is also consulted as a male infertility specialist for evaluation and treatment of reproductive health concerns. Male infertility may result from hormonal imbalance, varicocele, low sperm count, or obstruction. Evaluation includes hormone testing, semen analysis, ultrasound imaging, and structured treatment planning. When required, surgical correction such as varicocele repair is performed to improve fertility outcomes.

Hydrocele and varicocele are common scrotal conditions seen in adult men. A hydrocele surgery doctor evaluates whether fluid collection around the testicle requires surgical correction. If swelling causes discomfort or heaviness, minimally invasive surgery may be advised.

For foreskin-related conditions such as phimosis, recurrent infections, or discomfort, circumcision may be recommended. Dr. Raju performs conventional as well as ZSR circumcision in Bangalore. ZSR circumcision is a stapler-based technique that allows quicker procedure time, controlled bleeding, and faster healing in suitable cases.

In addition to these conditions, he treats urinary tract infections, recurrent urinary symptoms, erectile dysfunction, and urological cancers involving the kidney, bladder, prostate, and testicle. Cancer treatment is carefully staged and, when necessary, coordinated with oncology specialists for comprehensive care.

Patients from BTM and South Bangalore frequently seek consultation for structured evaluation, especially when symptoms persist or previous treatments have not provided relief. His focus remains on accurate diagnosis, minimally invasive solutions, and long-term outcome improvement rather than temporary symptom control.

He believes that treatment decisions should always be explained clearly. Patients are guided through the diagnosis, procedure details, expected recovery time, and possible outcomes before proceeding.

Kidney Stone Treatment and Laser Stone Surgery

Dr. Raju is recognized as a kidney stone doctor in Bangalore for managing simple to complex stone disease. Treatment options are selected based on stone size, location, recurrence pattern, and patient health status.

RIRS uses a flexible scope and laser energy to break stones inside the kidney without large incisions. PCNL is recommended for larger stones, while URS is used for ureter stones. ESWL may be suitable for selected smaller stones. These techniques allow effective stone clearance with minimal hospital stay.

Laser Prostate Surgery

Enlarged prostate is a common condition in men above 50 years. Symptoms include weak urine stream, frequent urination at night, incomplete bladder emptying, and urgency. When medication does not provide relief, laser prostate surgery helps remove excess prostate tissue with precision and reduced bleeding. Recovery is usually quicker compared to conventional surgery.

Male Infertility and Andrology

As a male infertility specialist, Dr. Raju evaluates hormonal levels, sperm parameters, and structural issues affecting fertility. Conditions such as varicocele, hormonal imbalance, and obstructive disorders are managed through medical or surgical correction. Early evaluation improves long-term reproductive outcomes.

Hydrocele and Varicocele Surgery

Hydrocele causes swelling around the testicle due to fluid accumulation. If persistent or uncomfortable, surgical correction is performed as a safe and effective procedure. Varicocele surgery is recommended when it affects fertility or causes chronic discomfort.

ZSR Circumcision and Phimosis Treatment

ZSR circumcision in Bangalore is performed using a stapler-based method in selected patients. This technique offers controlled bleeding and faster healing. Phimosis, recurrent foreskin infections, or tight foreskin conditions may require surgical correction after clinical evaluation.

Urological Cancer Surgery

Dr. Raju treats cancers involving the kidney, bladder, prostate, testicle, and penis. Surgical options such as partial or radical nephrectomy, prostate cancer surgery, TURBT for bladder tumors, and testicular cancer procedures are performed based on staging and overall patient health. The focus remains on disease control and preservation of function whenever possible.
