Dr. Shaun Wason, MD

I am 73 with BPH and was suffering with extreme pain and nausea that caused me to be admitted to the ER for acute urinary retention with renal failure. At my initial consultation with Dr Wason, he described the procedure and assured me that this was realistically my only option. Throughout this process Dr. Wason has been highly attentive and responsive to all my questions and concerns. From start to finish he has proven himself to be a one-of-a-kind doctor who truly cares for his patient's health and well-being. After the surgery I experienced NO pain and very little discomfort post-op. Now my kidney values have improved to almost normal... urinary flow is normal and symptom free… a complete success. Had I known of the HoLEP procedure years ago, I would have opted for it instead of years with medication or any other treatments. The HoLEP procedure is fantastic technology, but it is the professional expertise of Dr Shaun Wason that makes it the gold standard for treating BPH! Roger P.

I had previously had Green Light Laser Surgery which proved to be insufficient to address my issue. I was referred to Dr. Wason by another Urologist. I met with him and he felt he could solve my issues with HoLEP surgery. This surgery actually worked with no side effects and I couldn't be more delighted by the outcome. Dr. Wason listened to all of my complaints and even resolved some issues I was having with bladder stones, etc.

Dr. Wason was very thorough. Answered all questions. And provided high-quality surgery that was perfect for what I needed to reduce my prostate.

After living with progressively worsening symptoms, frequent urination, multiple UTIs, I had finally decided it was time to address the problem. After a substantial amount of research, I determined that the best procedure was a Laser Enucleation of the Prostate. Results comparable to TURP in terms of improvement of symptoms and duration with less bleeding and easier recovery. Unfortunately, this is a procedure that requires a surgeon who has completed specific training that my urologist did not have. Dr. Wason was one of two names I was given who is skilled in this procedure. I was able to get an appointment and be scheduled for surgery in a timely fashion. Surgery required an overnight stay in hospital. Four months after surgery, I am now only getting up once a night, am enjoying a better quality of life, and regret not having acted sooner.Would highly recommend Dr. Wason to others in a similar situation.

I was getting up every 1 to 2 hours at night to try to pee.It got to the point where I had to push really hard and the urine was backing up into my kidneys and impacting their function.Luckily, I found Dr. Wason and met with him, and he was able to schedule me for HOLEP surgery at Beth Israel Deaconess Milton Hospital within a few weeks.The HOLEP surgery was in the morning, and I stayed overnight in the hospital and was able to go home the next day.I can’t be more pleased with my ability to urinate and how I feel overall.I no longer have any urgency to urinate.I have complete control over my bladder with no leakage whatsoever.I no longer have nocturia and can go about 4 hours without the need to urinate.My kidney function has improved as well, and I no longer have hydronephrosis.I am so very grateful to Dr. Wason for his knowledge, skill, and ability to perform the HOLEP surgery. I very highly recommend Dr. Wason and the HOLEP surgery he performs. Thank you, Dr. Wason.

The care I have received from Dr. Wason is by far the absolute best!I had holep procedure for bph performed by him in Milton and could not be happier with the results. Thank you so much!

Please add me to what I'm guessing is a unanimous list of patients who couldn't be happier to have had Dr. Wason as a surgeon.A few minutes into my first visit (after consulting with several other surgeons) I knew that I'd found the guy I trusted to take care of the biggest medical issue I'd ever faced. Dr. Wason calmly and patiently answered my long list of questions, went back over the answers I didn't understand, and went out of his way to see to it that I was completely comfortable making the decision I had to make.The surgery could not have gone better, I feel great, and am endlessly grateful that I took the time to find a surgeon this competent, caring, and knowledgeable. I would also be remiss if I didn't also commend his staff. From my first call to my last visit, they were all friendly, helpful, supportive, and professional. They made what had been a seemingly endless and painful process dealing with the other doctors' offices, effortless and accommodating.

I had been dealing with symptoms of BPH for a couple of decades. The standard medications were unhelpful. The symptoms were becoming progressively worse and negatively impacting my quality of life. In addition, my PSA results were skyrocketing.Dr. Wasun was thorough and thoughtful in his testing and diagnosis. He explained clearly to me why I was experiencing the symptoms I was having, the options for surgical intervention, and the potential benefits and risks of the surgery. He listened carefully to my concerns about various potential consequences of the surgery in terms of long-term effects.Dr. Wasun performed laser surgery removing part of my prostate. He contacted me daily for a few days after the surgery by which time I was back to normal activity.Four months after the surgery my quality of life has improved enormously, and my symptoms greatly improved. PSA results are down substantially. None of the feared long-term effects happened.This was a great result for me.

After many years of experiencing worsening symptoms of BPH, I had a Holmium Laser Enucleation procedure (HoLEP) done by Dr Wason and I am doing much better! I highly recommend him.

Dr. Wason took my urological symptoms seriously and appropriately, with timely appointments and tests on an accelerated schedule, culminating in a surgical utereroscopy procedure. Fortunately, the ultimate conclusion was negative and normal. Explanations were clear and to the point, though somewhat scary. Throughout the process there was no pain and no adverse reactions. I'm very pleased with the concern and care provided by Dr. Wason.

Dr. Wason is an amazing Doctor, can't say enough for what he did for me. I'm very grateful I found Dr. Wason. I had really two tough years in and out of the hospital and now I can tell you he gave me back my life.Bob FaradieEaston, Ma.

I have been a patient of his for a approximately a year. The two issues I had were examined in depth and explained to me in a way I could uunderstand easily. When medication did not work for one of the issues, my options were given to me and his opinion was given as well. The non-invasive option was chosen and the experience, although uncomfortable last only a few days, so recovery was quick. His explanation was right on as to what to expect during and after. I was very pleased with the outcome in both cases. Dr Wason is a very personable, easy going, listens to his patients, spends time and gives options. I would highly recommend him to anyone who has urology issues, especially men.

Dr. Wason performed the laser enucleation procedure to address my BPH issue. The surgery was a complete success without any post operative pain. Dr. Wason is highly competent, a very good communicator, efficient, attentive, and a nice person. I was also pleased with his office staff.

Came to Dr. Wason as a 66 year old with BPH symptoms. I was on medication for 10 years but the symptoms reached the point where they were effecting the quality of my life. I had procrastinated about seeing a urologist, but after meeting Dr. Wason I was immediately assured that I had made the correct decision. His professional and personal manners are exceptional. He very clearly explained what BPH is and the steps he would take to thoroughly understand my situation and how he would determine the best procedure for remedy. He explained the available options and outcomes of the many procedures available and we ultimately decided on the HoLEP procedure. The surgery was done at BDI Milton and I went home that same day with a follow-up at his office the next day. Everything went exactly as he had described. It has been four months since my surgery and I feel like a new person. I can't thank Dr. Wason enough.

I am 61 years old and have had BPH for over 20 years. My 1st surgery was the old gold standard TURP. The tissue grew back after 5 years. The 2nd surgery was the Green Light Laser. Once again, the tissue grew back after 5 years. Upon doing some research, I found the HOLEP procedure. A procedure where I won't have to come back in 5 years and possible never again. My research also pointed me to Dr. Shaun Wason in Milton. Upon my 1st visit with Dr. Wason, he explained in detail what the procedure would entail. I was eager to get it done. Finally, the day of the surgery, everyone at Milton, Hospital was so kind to me. I was wheeled in the operating room where Dr. Wason greeted me. The next thing I know I was in recovery. After staying overnight, I was released the next day. I had the same side effects as the first 2 operations. After time to heal, I feel great!!I am able to completely relieve myself with a full stream. I feel like I'm 20 years old again. Thank you so much Dr. Wason!!

After years of prostate problems and medication that didn't work anymore, Dr. Wason was a life saver. Every appointment including the surgery were executed with great care and professionalism. I'm off medication for now which is great. I highly recommend Dr. Wason and I'm so happy I ended up doing this with him. It was tough to find the right surgeon and get something done in a reasonable time-frame.Thank you so much!!!!!!!!

After putting up with BPH for way too many years, I decided it's time to get serious about it. I visited the local urology center near me and came to the conclusion that medication or wearing a catheter was not the answer. Turp surgery was suggested, so I researched this solution. This is when I came across the HoLep procedure. This being a less invasive surgery with a quick recovery period, sounded good to me. However, I soon found out that there are very limited places or doctors that perform this procedure. During my search I came across Dr Shaun Wason and made an appointment for a consultation. I'm glad I did. After that consultation I was convinced that HoLep was the way to go. Dr Wason was great, very informative and even showed me an actual video of this procedure. In conclusion: Dr Wason and Beth Israel - Milton were outstanding, and I was home 24 hrs after the surgery and without any real discomfort. I would certainly recommend Dr Wason and the Beth Israel staff.

First Dr Wason has the warmth most caring bedside manner of any doctor I’ve ever met. He listens and responds with answers with details in a way that we could understand. Dr Wasan presented me with option and never ever pressured or pushed for any procedures. I’ve struggled with BPH/prostrate issues for 20-30 years, but now because of Dr Wason’s expertise my health has been fully restored at the age of 74. Dr Wasan offered alternative methods before surgery that were unsuccessful. Surgery was a last resort. Big thanks to Dr Wason for giving me excellent care and treatment! He’s the Best.

Thank you for giving me my 'life' back, Dr Wason. Your concern and quick time to HoLEP surgery is much appreciated. If not for you, I would still be relegated to a catheter for the foreseeable future. Thanks again to you and your assistant, Angel, for all the quick planning and support. Since my discharge 5 weeks ago, I have fully recovered. I now urinate as freely as I had many years back. I experience no pain, no incontinence, and no negative urinary effects. The surgical results were as close to perfect as one could get.I highly recommend Dr. Wason for BPH surgery. He is the best of the best.

Dr. Wason performed successful TURP surgery on me. He did not rush surgery, rather he gave me the option to try medication first. When that did not work, he presented the surgery option in a clear manner and what to expect post surgery. He followed up to see how I was doing during my recovery. He has a very calm and reassuring manner. I highly recommend him.
