Dr.Figlesthaler is a first class Urologist. I have seen him about five times and he was always on time, very efficient explained everything. Once I was prescribed an expensive medication and it didn't work up to his expectation and he wanted to increase the strength but knew it was really expensive and he had samples transferred from another office for me to try. He is very personable and knowledgeable.

Prostate cancer
As a result of the biopsy performed by Dr. Figlesthaler he informed me of my cancer, describing it as mid-range, feels like we caught it in time, and very treatable. Referred to Oncologist Dr. Kerwin where the process is moving quickly towards radiation. The staff which I encountered which felt like everyone was just great, from reception, nurses, PA, and Dr. Figlesthaler. I always felt I was in good hands and appreciate their professionalism.

Dr. Fig is a truly caring person. He cares about the patient, not just the chart or billing situation. In fact, when in his care, you’ll actually believe that no other patient exists, as he always gives you his full undivided attention and care. He is the “go-to” physician in our family.

I consulted with Dr. Figlesthaler due to my long-standing urinary symptoms. I was experiencing frequent bathroom visits weak flow and getting up several times at night to use the bathroom despite taking medication. Dr. Figlesthaler examined me and did some special tests to identify the exact problem. He then sat down with me and my wife to review everything and answered all of our questions. He explained that I had an enlarged prostate with an extra lobe that was blocking my bladder for years and that this was also causing my bladder to be overactive. He explained all of the options. He performed the plasma button on me 3 months ago and I am now doing great. My flow is excellent. I am sleeping through the night and my frequent bathroom visits have ended. I highly recommend Dr. Figlesthaler as a caring and very skilled physician.

He performed a Plasma Button procedure on me less than 2 years back. It resulted in better urine flow, but dramatically increased frequency of urination that he had no interest or time to discuss with me. This is a harried physician and do not allocate time for patient consultation. Will be dealing with a different Urologist in the future.

Saw Dr. Figlesthaler today (12/16/2020). He was recommended by a family member in Naples Fl. I found him very easy to talk to and very thorough. He prescribed several tests at my earlier visit and took the time to review those test with me. He answered all of my questions. Dr. Figlesthaler's nurse were also very professional and easy to talk to. If you are having a urinary issue this is the office to go to!!

I am very pleased with my visits and procedure done by Dr. Figlesthaler. I went to him for bladder leakage anytime I laughed or sneezed, etc. I was so afraid to go out anywhere. Then he did a Vaginal Sling and it was the best thing I could have ever had done. No more leakage and I can live a normal life, I am so very pleased with my experience and he truly cares about his patients.

I had bladder issues for years that interfered with my quality of life. Other physicians brushed off my concerns. After a friend referred me to Dr. Figlesthaler I knew I was in good hands. He took the time to sit with me to listen to my issues and promptly came up with a treatment plan. I now have my life back thanks to Dr. Figlesthaler and his exceptional staff.

I found Dr Figlesthaler very arrogant and in one instance rude. He spent very little time with me before and after a procedure with little explanation as to what he had actual done. 6 days after the procedure I landed up in the ER. I am seeing another urologist and hope that Dr Figlesthaler has not caused any permanent damage. In hindsight the 1 and a half hours I was kept waiting on my first visit after my appoint hour with no explanation or apology I should have taken as a red flag and left there and then.

Dr. Figlesthaler recently performed my laser prostate procedure , and I am delighted with his care. In my experience he is a highly competent, caring, patient doctor, who takes the time to listen to his patients, explains their options, and guides them in choosing the best course of treatment. Dr. Figlesthaler continues to provide excellent patient care after surgery. His staff is very helpful and brings after-hours questions or complaints to the Doctor’s attention, providing a prompt and helpful reply. Based on my experience, I would highly recommend Dr. Figlesthaler to my friends and family members.

Dr. Figlesthaler and his staff are great. My husband called his office on a Friday afternoon. He saw me right away . Took his time and helped me through my issue. Other doctors would have said to wait until next week or go to the emergency room at the hospital! Kudos to the doctor and his staff!!!!! Doctor you are what your profession should be THANK YOU!
