Philosophy of care | My philosophy is to treat you as you would like to be treated. I give my patients ample time to discuss all their issues and make sure that when they leave their visit, their disease, their plan and their potential courses of action are clear. Also, I am a member of the genitourinary cancer multidisciplinary consultation team. Together we review your diagnostic information and give you a written opinion reflecting the scope of your condition and recommendations for your best course of care. | Why I entered medicine | I entered medicine to make a difference in the lives of people suffering from disease. I do that clinically and through research of novel concepts, devices and medications. | Community involvement | I am a member of the Leonard Pool Society, a philanthropic group for Lehigh Valley Health Network. I am also involved in organizing community information and screenings for urology. | Personal interests | I enjoy time with my family, rowing and participating in most water sports. Dr. Baccala is rated as a Distinguished provider by MediFind in the treatment of Empyema. His top areas of expertise are Prostate Cancer, Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer, Urothelial Cancer, Nephrectomy, and Reconstructive Urology Surgery.
