Dad has issues urinating--new product the answer?

Hi everyone!

I'm hoping someone here can help me with this question...my Dad recently underwent treatment for his BPH and has had issues urinating ever since. At his latest urologist appointment, his doctor recommended a new product called the Spanner?

Has anyone heard of this device before? And if so, what do you think of it? I've been doing quite a bit of research lately (neither of my parents are great with computers), and although prostatic stents haven't been too popular in the past, it seems like this new one might really be the ticket. My Dad's doctor swears by it and says it will turn his life around, but I just wanted to do some checking into first before we go that route.

Any suggestions or advice you have would be greatly appreciated.

Thank-you!

Concerned Daughter
