We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of VidaMed, Inc. as
of  December  31,  1998 and 1997,  and the related  consolidated  statements  of
operations,  stockholders'  equity and cash flows for each of the three years in
the period  ended  December  31, 1998.  Our audits also  included the  financial
statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 14(a). These financial statements
and  schedule  are  the   responsibility  of  the  Company's   management.   Our
responsibility  is to  express  an opinion  on these  financial  statements  and
schedule based on our audits.

We  conducted  our  audits  in  accordance  with  generally   accepted  auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the  accounting  principles  used and  significant  estimates  made by
management,  as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly and in
all material respects,  the consolidated  financial position of VidaMed, Inc. at
December 31, 1998 and 1997,  and the  consolidated  result of its operations and
its cash flows for each of the three  years in the  period  ended  December  31,
1998, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.  Also, in our
opinion,  the related financial statement schedule,  when considered in relation
to the  basic  financial  statements  taken as a whole,  present  fairly  in all
material respects the information set forth therein.
