About Dr. Richard E. Holevas
Bio
Our practice here at Orange Coast Urology is different from other urology practices primarily based on our attention to detail. We offer our patients a great experience. With a highly qualified and experienced physician, a solid relationship with one of the finest west coast-based hospitals in the area through Hoag Hospital, and an attentive, responsive staff, we're the best practice in the area.My interest in medicine grew out of a nagging curiosity about the human body and a strong sense of satisfaction derived from helping people - going back many years. For me, this includes my work in complex stone disease. Through Hoag Hospital, we also offer bladder reconstruction following cancer surgery (known as Neo-bladder care that results in no external bag).As a service-oriented practice, our combined level of expertise is comparable to any major facility in the country. Our robotics, and stone disease therapies are all available right here in Newport Beach.My personal philosophy as a doctor is to approach my patients the same as I would treat myself or my own father. Because my patients are often experiencing extreme anxiety, they expect me to know all about their condition and carefully handle their surgery, treatments and help them recover fully. "Taking care of the problem" is how I approach each patient.
