Treatment Philosophy
I take time to listen to my patients, understand what they are saying, which helps me come up with a treatment plan that is best for them. My practice is unique in that it is focused on benign urological conditions. Many of these conditions have multiple treatment options, and sometimes do not require treatment at all. Therefore, my time for each patient when I see them is dedicated to counseling them on all available options for their diagnosis.
I believe humility is an important attribute that I bring to my practice that helps strengthen my ability to relate to patients and ultimately, help them achieve their goals. One of my favorite things about Urology is that it is constantly changing with newer technologies to treat urological conditions. I am dedicated to making sure patients have the best treatment options available to them.
My goal for every patient is that when they leave my office, they feel that they received the best care possible. I want patients to know that every clinical decision I make is in their best interest.

very good visit
Dr G is patient and detailed
Dr Eric Ghiraldi discussed my past history with prostate cancer. Understood very clearly my current problem and was able to advise me a clear path forward to managing future treatment options. He has an excellent ability to grasp the problem with great communicating skills. I was very satisfied with my visit with Dr Ghiraldi, and would recommend him to anyone needing his services.
