I explained everything previously already . I think prof, Bob Yang is a top specialist in this area . I have seen other urology specialists in the past 8 years , but I wish I had found prof. Yang before . He is really eager to find solutions to recurrent UTIs and he actively doing research and finding various new treatments . From a patient perspective it makes a huge difference . The only advice I had before him was to basically drink a lot of water . I’m finally feeling more optimistic with my condition, and that I’m sure also helps to get better . I couldn’t recommend Prof. Yang more and in fact I mention his name to all the people I meet who struggle with recurrent UTIs

I was referred to Prof. Bob Yang by my consultant at home. I had almost given hope that my very frequent bladder infections might one day stop. These infections had been a regular part of my life for over fifty years. After bladder instillations I am now infection free and able to live my life without constant pain and discomfort. I feel immensely grateful for the help Prof. Bob Yang has given me.

As I indicated I have been treated by telephone appointment, online communication and Uromune vaccine by post. I was very impressed that this service existed and feel privileged to have availed myself of its benefits. The treatment has led to a great improvement in my condition.
