Urology Outpatient Clinic

The Urology Outpatient Clinic performs specialist visits and diagnostic tests such as ultrasound of kidney, bladder and prostate, prostatic transrectal ultrasonography, uroflowmetry with evaluation of post-void residual, urodynamic examination with electromyography of the sphincter, urethral cystoscopy with flexible cystoscope. Ultrasound-guided transperineal prostate biopsy, rehabilitation of the pelvic floor and percutaneous posterior tibial nerve stimulation (PTNS) can also be performed. If the clinical situation suggests a multidisciplinary project of rehabilitation, the doctor may recommend admission to Neuro-Urological Day Hospital.

How to Access the Services

SSN (NHS) - In agreement with the National Health Service (NHS). Due to the limitation on the performances that the Santa Lucia Foundation is authorized to provide in agreement with the Public Health Service of the Lazio Region this access method is only available to people who are exempt from the Public SSN rates (priority for the weaker segment of the population) and to people under the age of 30 (priority for the economical weaker segment of the population). In some cases, the access criteria in SSN mode may vary (eg priority to cancer patients). This access method requires your public health doctor’s authorization. You cannot choose your specialist.

SIMP - Practical solution offered by the Santa Lucia Foundation as an alternative to the National Health Service. Patient cost is basically comparable to the Public SSN rates. This method allows access to all medical services (in some cases a medical prescription may be required). You cannot choose your specialist.

Private - Access to exams with direct payment or health insurance (list of insurance agreements). You can choose your specialist.

ATTENTION: some clinical performances should be accessible only in some of the modalities listed above and not in all.
