Fast Relief for Kidney Stones

• When a kidney stone becomes too large or painful to pass on its own, your doctor may recommend lithotripsy.
  
  
• As one of few Bay Area health systems with an on-site lithotripter machine, we can treat your kidney stones sooner, often within 24-48 hours.
  
  
• Lithotripsy is done at our Concord Medical Center by board certified urologists.
  
  

Non-Invasive Treatment for Quick Recovery

• Soundwaves are painlessly sent through your body to break the stones into small, sand-like particles, which can then easily pass in your urine.
  
  
• Since there’s no incision, you have less discomfort and a faster recovery.
   
• In most cases, lithotripsy takes just 30-45 minutes, and you go home the same day.
