I agree. Small incision, rapid healing. Make sure your Doctor is highly skilled and is not trying to build his numbers and is practicing on you. Again, as I mentioned before, the Doctor cannot guarantee he will save the nerves attached to the prostate. And you may need a pee bag or diapers for the rest of your life. He will give you odds of slightly greater lifestyle changes at about 10 to 15%. Know before you go.
