His Practo profile lists key procedures including prostate laser surgery, RIRS for kidney stones, ureteroscopy (URS), urethroplasty, and treatments for erectile dysfunction, urinary incontinence and male infertility. Wherever appropriate, he favours minimally invasive endoscopic and laparoscopic approaches, which typically mean smaller incisions, less pain and a quicker return to normal life.For patients searching for a urologist in Bangalore, particularly around HSR Layout, Sarjapur Road and south-east Bangalore, Dr. Prathik offers consultations that begin with listening rather than prescribing. Urological problems are often private and anxiety-inducing; his approach is to explain the diagnosis plainly, lay out both conservative and surgical options, and let patients make informed decisions. Whether it is a painful kidney stone needing urgent relief or a long-standing concern like incontinence or infertility, patients can expect discreet, thorough and technically up-to-date urological care.
