South County Health is proud to announce that our urology team has successfully completed their 100th Aquablation procedure since introducing the procedure in January, marking a significant milestone in the use of this innovative technology. This state-of-the-art treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) has been made possible through the generosity of our philanthropic community.

Aquablation is a minimally invasive procedure that uses waterjet technology to precisely remove excess prostate tissue, offering a safe and effective option for patients suffering from BPH, a condition that affects millions of men worldwide. South County Health is the only healthcare facility in South County providing this cutting-edge treatment.

“Our ability to offer Aquablation is a game changer for many men facing the challenges of BPH,” said Arnold Sarazen, MD, Chief of Urology at South County Health. “The precision and effectiveness of this technology significantly enhance the patient experience and recovery process.”

Katelyn Johnson, MD, added, “Completing our 100th Aquablation is not just a testament to the technology but also to the dedication of our team in improving the lives of our patients. We are committed to providing the highest quality of care, and this procedure exemplifies our mission.”

John Heffernan, MD, remarked, “The prevalence of BPH can impact a man’s quality of life, causing discomfort and disruption. With Aquablation, we can offer patients a reliable solution that minimizes downtime and maximizes outcomes.”

As we celebrate this achievement, we extend our gratitude to our donors and supporters whose contributions have made it possible for South County Health to bring this life-changing technology to our community.
