Dr. Elterman may be an option for Ontarians seeking private urology care, especially for select procedures or newer technologies that may not be covered by the public system (e.g. Rezūm, UroLift, iTind, Aquablation, private GreenLight laser, private HoLEP, prostate artery embolization). If you live in Ontario, your eligibility will depend on whether the service is insured, uninsured, elective, or otherwise permitted privately. His office can help confirm what applies to your situation.
