Prof. Dr. Istiyak Ahmed Shamim

Prof. Dr. Istiyak Ahmed Shamim is a Professor specializing in Urology Surgery. His listed qualifications include MBBS, FCPS and MD. Urology focuses on conditions affecting the urinary system in men and women, as well as the male reproductive system. Patients experiencing urinary difficulties, recurring discomfort or other concerns involving these organs can seek specialist assessment to identify possible causes and discuss appropriate treatment options.

Common urological symptoms include frequent urination, difficulty passing urine, burning during urination, blood in the urine and pain in the lower abdomen or back. These signs may be associated with different conditions, including urinary tract infections, kidney stones or prostate problems. A medical assessment helps determine whether urine tests, imaging or other investigations are needed. Patients should explain when symptoms started and whether they have occurred before.

Urology surgery covers procedures for selected conditions involving the kidneys, bladder, prostate and other parts of the urinary tract. Treatment depends on the diagnosis, the severity of the problem and the patient's overall health. Some conditions can be managed with medication or monitoring, while others may require a procedure. Patients should discuss the benefits, risks, recovery expectations and possible alternatives before deciding on surgery.

Prof. Dr. Istiyak Ahmed Shamim sees patients at Popular Diagnostic Center Ltd, Badda, Dhaka. Those preparing for a consultation may bring previous urine reports, imaging results, prescriptions and details of any ongoing treatment. A list of current medicines and relevant medical history can also help the doctor assess the case. Inability to pass urine, severe flank pain with fever or visible blood accompanied by serious symptoms requires prompt medical evaluation.
