    Makes no difference where it's done. It is not for everyone.

    Hi Martass,

    Have not seen any posts regarding a Canadian PAE so far. Plenty in US, Europe and Australia (mine was in Oz.)

    So if you want to learn about the procedure and various outcomes plenty in these forums. Sorry though no info re Canadian Doctor - good luck.

    Dr. Welsh in Calgary, is a specialist in vascular and interventional radiology, including uterine artery embolization, and prostate artery embolization (PAE) - a novel, minimally invasive treatment for prostatic symptoms.

    Doctors from Mayfair Diagnostics have been performing this procedure for five years at Calgary’s Rockyview General Hospital.

    Dr.Welsh did my biopsy, otherwise I have no more info on this procedure in Calgary.
