Dr. Michael McDonald
Dr. Michael McDonald is the medical director for Endourology at Advent Health Celebration, in Celebration, Florida. Dr. McDonald has been instrumental in advancing new technologies in urological surgery at Advent Health including virtual reality imaging and working on the amalgamation of electronic health record systems for all patients. Dr. McDonald first saw the Procept BioRobotics AquaBeam system in 2015 at the World Congress of Endourology. He felt this would cause a generational shift in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
Since instituting Aquablation therapy at Advent Health Celebration in early 2020, Dr. McDonald has been impressed by the dramatic improvement of BPH symptoms in patients, the decreased side effect profile compared to the traditional surgical treatment of BPH and the ease of use of the system. Aquablation therapy truly is a new wave in the surgical treatment of BPH combining real time imaging with robotic execution for patients suffering from BPH.
