Urologist Dr. Christopher DiBlasio joins Precision Healthcare Specialists

FORT MYERS, Fla. - Aug. 2, 2024 - PRLog -- Precision Healthcare Specialists has added Dr. Christopher DiBlasio, a board-certified urologist who offers compassionate, contemporary urologic care to male and female patients from offices in Bonita Springs and Port Charlotte.

DiBlasio has more than two decades of experience treating patients with a variety of urologic conditions. Passionate about the intersection of technology and treatment, DiBlasio developed an MRI fusion-guided platform for prostate cryoablation, which allows outpatient, incision-free and precise cancer treatment without the need for major surgery or radiation. The procedure minimizes potential risks, side effects and recovery time. He also performs TULSA-PRO, a radiation- and incision-free minimally invasive procedure that uses directional ultrasound to ablate diseased prostate tissue. Other minimally invasive procedures that DiBlasio provides are optilume for treating male urethral strictures and Benign Prostate Hyperplasia (BPH), and Prostatic Urethral Lift (PUL) procedures to treat lower urinary tract symptoms.

Having performed thousands of prostate laser procedures, DiBlasio serves as a trainer, proctor and key opinion leader for Holmium Laser Enucleation of Prostate (HoLEP) surgery, as well as prostate cryoablation.

Additionally, he offers an MRI-fusion transperineal prostate biopsy with mapping, scalpel-free and suture-free vasectomy, female pelvic reconstruction and incontinence treatment, and urologic cancer surgery.

Certified by the American Board of Urology, DiBlasio previously was a physician with GenesisCare in Fort Myers, where he specialized in minimally invasive surgery for men and women. He also has held multiple health care leadership roles, including positions as chief of urology at Huntington Hospital of Northwell Health, associate medical director of the Mount Sinai Doctors of Long Island consortium of the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, and division chair of urology for Optum ProHealth.

DiBlasio earned a Bachelor of Applied Science degree in pre-medicine/pre-medical studies and jazz performance from Fairfield University before pursuing a Doctor of Medicine program through St. George's University School of Medicine. He then completed an internship in general surgery and trauma, as well as urology residency training, at the University of Tennessee Health Sciences Center in Memphis. Later, DiBlasio completed a research fellowship in urologic oncology at New York's renowned Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center.

DiBlasio treats urology patients at two locations in Southwest Florida: 9500 Bonita Beach Road, Suite 201, in Bonita Springs and 1685 S. Tamiami Trail, Building 4, in Port Charlotte.
