Understanding Prostate and Bladder Health with Mr Owen Cole
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Dr Nick Dunn sits down with Medical Specialist Group Consultant Urologist Mr Owen Cole to discuss some of the most common urinary and prostate symptoms experienced by men, including frequent trips to the toilet during the night, and why they shouldn’t simply be dismissed as a normal part of ageing.
In this episode, they explore prostate and bladder health, the symptoms that may need further investigation, treatment options available in Guernsey, and the lifestyle changes that can make a real difference.
They also discuss when to seek help, what to expect from an assessment, and why seeking advice early can often lead to better outcomes.
The conversation goes beyond medicine too, as Nick and Owen chat about music, local bands, the Eisteddfod and life outside the consulting room.
