Dr José Luis Bauzá
I’m a urologist, and most of my work is in two areas: an enlarged prostate that makes it hard to pass urine, which I treat with laser surgery (HoLEP), and kidney stones.
I studied medicine at the University of Barcelona (Hospital Clínic) and trained as a urologist at Son Espases University Hospital, where I still work as a consultant.
I see patients in Palma, at Hospital Quirónsalud Palmaplanas, and in Manacor, at Més Consultes Mèdiques. Appointments are in English or Spanish.

Endoscopic and laser surgery
Whenever possible, I operate through the body’s natural passages: laser for the prostate and for stones, with no cuts in the skin.

Frequently asked questions
If you find it hard to pass urine, get up several times at night to go, notice blood in your urine or have had a kidney stone. Also if a blood test has shown a raised PSA. From the age of 50, or 45 if your father or a brother has had prostate cancer, it is worth having check-ups even if you have no symptoms.
We talk about what has been happening and about your medical history, and I examine you. If you need any tests, I explain what each one is for before I request it.
Often not. Quite a few prostate problems and many small stones can be managed with medication or by monitoring them. If you do need surgery, I explain which technique suits your case and why.
You don’t need any tests beforehand. If you have recent blood tests, scans or reports, bring them, along with a list of the medication you take.
