This is a beginning list of high volume (well over 100 per year) implant specialists with very positive patient feedback. Keep in mind that there can be and there are complications including infection with every surgeon. The rate of these complications is, however, substantially reduced with a high volume surgeon as is size loss. By the same token, there are low volume doctors that produce satisfactory results in many patients but the rate of complication is greatly increased.
Possible complications include but is not limited to: Infection (always requires removal of the implant), Size loss, instability of erection (points down, wobbles), Visible or palpable tubing, Over-sizing ( requires surgery)
This list is not an endorsement but is provided as a beginning point for patients to do their own research and choose their surgeon wisely.

New YorkDr. Francois EidManhattan, NY

Dr. Eid is known for developing the no-touch technique to greatly reduce the risk of infection. Has famously low infection rates (under 1%) ----- Seldom can one find a world renown surgeon who is so kind, friendly, and accessible to his patients? He is a doctor that is so interested in his patients. He gives them his cell phone and personally returns calls on the weekend. Also does
verapamil injections and other treatments for Peyronies Disease, and
erectile dysfunction. - Covered by Medicare and most insurance.
