Patient Experience
As a 28-year-old professional dancer, discovering blood in my urine before a major performance was terrifying. Dr. Seral Kannan not only diagnosed my rare ureteral polyp with precision but performed a minimally invasive laser ablation that preserved my kidney function completely. I was back on stage in 10 days with no visible scars.
My 7-year-old son had been suffering from recurrent UTIs since infancy. After multiple misdiagnoses, Dr. Kannan identified a congenital ureterovesical junction obstruction. His pediatric robotic surgery was flawless - my boy hasn't had a single infection in the two years since, and he finally enjoys swimming lessons like other children.
At 82, I was resigned to living with my prostate issues until my daughter insisted I see Dr. Kannan. His holistic approach combining medication, pelvic floor therapy, and dietary changes transformed my quality of life. I can now enjoy family outings without constant bathroom anxiety.
The kidney stone that struck during my daughter's wedding day was excruciating. Dr. Kannan's team performed emergency lithotripsy within hours, and his personal follow-up call that evening ensured I didn't miss the reception. His compassion matched his clinical excellence.
As a ******* man navigating urethral reconstruction, Dr. Kannan's culturally sensitive approach made all the difference. He collaborated with my endocrinologist and created a surgical plan that respected my identity while addressing my complex urological needs with groundbreaking techniques.
My husband's advanced bladder cancer diagnosis devastated our family. Dr. Kannan's innovative neobladder procedure using robotic surgery gave him not just survival but dignity - he maintains normal urinary function and we recently celebrated our 40th anniversary cancer-free.
The pediatric urology team led by Dr. Kannan repaired our newborn's bladder exstrophy - a condition we'd never heard of before birth. His detailed 3D models helped us understand the multi-stage procedure, and our daughter now thrives with normal urinary function.
As an international truck driver, my enlarged prostate threatened my livelihood. Dr. Kannan's in-office Rezum procedure took less than an hour and had me back on the road in 48 hours. No more emergency stops every hour during long hauls.
My wife's interstitial cystitis had been dismissed by previous doctors as 'stress.' Dr. Kannan listened intently, ordered the right tests, and created a multimodal treatment plan that reduced her pain by 80%. We finally have our life back together.
The renal artery aneurysm discovered during my pregnancy could have been catastrophic. Dr. Kannan's team coordinated with obstetricians to time the embolization perfectly at 28 weeks. Our healthy daughter was born full-term, and my kidney function remains excellent.
After a horrific car accident left me with pelvic fractures and urethral disruption, multiple surgeons said I'd need permanent catheters. Dr. Kannan's reconstructive expertise restored normal voiding through six meticulous surgeries over 18 months. His persistence gave me my dignity back.
My 16-year-old's varicocele was affecting his fertility prospects and self-esteem. Dr. Kannan's microscopic subinguinal approach was so precise he barely has a scar and was playing basketball within two weeks. Follow-up tests show perfect sperm parameters already.
As a renal transplant recipient of 15 years, developing ureteral stenosis threatened my graft. Dr. Kannan's endoscopic management using cutting-edge techniques preserved my transplanted kidney without needing open surgery. His coordination with my nephrologist was seamless.
The Fournier's gangrene that nearly took my life left extensive tissue damage. Dr. Kannan's reconstructive work involved multiple flaps and grafts, but his psychological support throughout the year-long process was equally remarkable. I've returned to work with renewed perspective.
