Doctor dictates "The patient did have a urethral stricture lasered in the office."


I don't think lasered is an appropriate word, is it acceptable to change the sentence to this?


The patient did have a urethral stricture corrected with laser in the office.


Or should I just use lasered as he dictated?  Thanks.  :)
