The purpose of this study is to assess the acceptability and feasibility of including a pelvic floor muscle exercise program into the care provided to patients undergoing prostate enucleation, studying both patients and clinicians perpsectives. A second part of the study will be to compare two groups, one receiving pelvic floor muscle exercise before surgery and and the other receiving the standard treatment, which is surgery. We will evaluate patients' perceptions of integrating physiotherapy sessions before surgery and attempt to identify facilitators and barriers to pelvic floor muscle exercise among both patients and clinicians.
