Designated UroLift Center of Excellence
Background
Dr. Kefer is a board-certified urologist who completed his residency and fellowship at the prestigious Cleveland Clinic. Dr. Kefer earned the UroLift Center of Excellence status in 2019, becoming the first urologist in the Denver area and the entire Front Range to earn Center of Excellence status. Physicians with the Center of Excellence designation have received a higher level of training and experience with the UroLift System and demonstrate a commitment to exemplary care for men living with the symptoms of BPH.
His practice interests include minimally invasive management of prostate cancer and kidney cancer, BPH/prostate enlargement and prostate health, single-site, no-scalpel vasectomies, treatment and prevention of kidney stones, urinary incontinence in women and men, and sexual dysfunction. He is also one of the only physicians in Colorado to perform an office-based prostate biopsy through the perineum, which substantially decreases the risk of biopsy related infection and improves comfort and prostate sampling.
He is a member of the American Urologic Association, a member of the Colorado Urology Executive Council, and is Co-director of Urological Robotic Surgery at Exempla Good Samaritan Medical Center.
