Thank you Doctor Ahlering for giving me the potential for a future. Your leadership and skill is reflected throughout your wonderful caring team who navigated me through this phase of my journey and treated me as if I was one of your own family.
John R.

My recovery exceeded every expectation that I had. After the surgery I was basically pain free and only took 1 Tylenol tablet! I was able to walk at length couple of days after the surgery. I did not even feel weak as one expects after the surgery.
Elizabeth Z.

Very professional staff, I like the rapport that they build with their patients. I took my son in for a procedure and the medical assistants took me under their wings and explained every step of the procedure in detail. I couldn't had chosen a better facility.
Russell G.

I have been treated by Dr. Louie and have nothing but good things to say about it. He is friendly, knowledgeable and will answer all the questions posed. In other words he has good bedside manner.

Professional Biography

Akhil Das, M.D. is a HS Clinical Professor at UCI Health Department of Urology. He specializes in minimally invasive treatments for BPH and endoscopic laser surgery, as well as management of lower urinary tract dysfunction including urinary incontinence in both males and females.

He recently served as Professor of Urology in the Department of Urology at Sidney Kimmel Medical College at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital in Philadelphia, PA. Prior to this appointment, he was on the faculty at New York Medical College and later went on to private practice in New Mexico where he continued to improve on the techniques of HoLEP. He graduated from Hahnemann University School of Medicine and completed his urology residency at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital. He continued his post graduate training with a fellowship at Tauranga Hospital in New Zealand under the mentorship of Dr. Peter Gilling, the founder of Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate (HoLEP) technique.

Dr. Das is one of the first surgeons to perform HoLEP in the USA and having helped develop the surgical strategies to perform HoLEP as a minimally invasive technique for BPH.

He was instrumental in making HoLEP as procedure of choice for BPH and helped to establish the CPT code for HoLEP. In the revised 2018 AUA Guidelines for BPH, HoLEP is now considered the primary endoscopic surgical technique that is independent of prostate size, and arguably the gold standard for the surgical management of BPH.
