Contact UsWhat Is An Enlarged Prostate?
The prostate is a small gland in the male reproductive system that surrounds the urethra and produces seminal fluid. An enlarged prostate, often called benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), typically occurs in men as they age. If you have an enlarged prostate, it can block the urethra, resulting in uncomfortable symptoms in the urinary tract, such as incontinence, difficulty emptying your bladder, painful urination, and increased urinary frequency. Fortunately, there are many effective treatments Dr. Shenelle Wilson is able to provide for this common condition. To learn more, we encourage you to reach out to Metro Atlanta Urology and Pelvic Health Center in Kennesaw, GA to schedule an appointment.
How Is An Enlarged Prostate Treated?
Dr. Wilson may run a series of tests to confirm if you have an enlarged prostate. She will then create a treatment plan for you by factoring in your age, the size of your prostate, symptoms, and overall health. We offer a wide variety of both surgical and nonsurgical treatments for BPH, including:
- UroLift®: A minimally invasive, FDA-approved tiny implant is used to elevate the prostate tissue so it stops blocking the urethra and allows urine to pass through.
- Transurethral Resection of the Prostate (TURP): A surgical procedure that involves removing the prostate tissue so the urethra is no longer blocked, enabling urine to flow through.
- Robotic Simple Prostatectomy: Using a robotic-assisted surgical technique, this procedure is a minimally invasive way to remove the part of your prostate that is blocking the passage of urine.
- Aquablation Therapy: This innovative treatment is minimally invasive and utilizes robotic technology to dispense a heat-free waterjet that removes prostate tissue without making any incisions.

I am thrilled about my new partnership with Dr. Wilson—she is truly an answer to prayer. I had concerns about a previous procedure, and during my visit with her, she provided exactly the clarity and care I needed. The appointment was incredibly candid, and unlike many doctor visits, it didn’t feel uncomfortable or rushed. Dr. Wilson took ample time to thoroughly answer all my questions and ensured I felt valued, never treating the visit as purely transactional because of my insurance. She also outlined a detailed roadmap for the future, giving me confidence and direction. Her bedside manner is as exceptional as her expertise, which was evident from the very beginning. Dr. Wilson wasted no time addressing my case and quickly set the wheels in motion on pending matters. I’m genuinely grateful to have connected with Dr. Wilson and her amazing staff. If you’re considering a new urologist, I highly recommend scheduling a visit with her—you’ll immediately notice the difference compared to others.
I had my first visit and I am extremely happy with the service I was provided. She educated me and we have a plan of action in place. Everyone was so nice, from the front desk to the doctor. It ended up being an enjoyable experience.
