The PDS Forum is happy to welcome J Francois Eid, MD.  Dr. Eid is world-renowned as a leader in Penile Implant Surgery.  He modified and introduced the "No-touch" technique into implant surgery and has performed over 7,000 implant surgeries.  

Dr. Eid has long supported our forum's valuable work by indirectly answering questions fielded through me.

He has now graciously agreed to donate some time to answer questions for PDS members directly.  His board can be found right under the Treatment section of the forum in the Insight from Medical Professionals area.  Most such "Ask the Doctor" areas on the interest must first be submitted to moderators for approval.  We will set permissions for all regular members With four or more meaningful posts, a completed signature line, and an accurate country of residence so they can directly ask questions.

Critical info for posting in the Professionals
First, look to see if Dr. Eid has already answered your question by looking through his other posts on his board.  You should read all of his posts if you have questions about implants.
Make sure your question is well thought through. Then, do your best to make it clear by stripping out unnecessary or irrelevant information.
Be respectful and appreciative of Dr. Eid's service to you and other members and guests who read this forum.
After Dr. Eid answers your question, limit follow-up to necessary points you need to understand his answer fully. (one or two follow-up posts per question should be sufficient)

Welcome Dr. Eid.  I have been living with Peyronie's for over 10 years.  I live in Geneva, Switzerland and I see a urologist here, Dr. Tran.  I've decided to get an implant.  While Dr. Tran is an exceptional person, he only does about 3-4 AMS700 implants a year and does not do Coloplast Titan implants.  New York City is a long way away for me.  Through all of your professional experience and contacts, would you be able to direct me (and many others living in Europe) to a high volume surgeon in Europe?  I've looked a bit in France (Paris, only) but I can't find any information about surgeons who have done high volume implants.  I would be most grateful for any references you could give to this forum.  Kind regards,  David

DJ, That would be an appropriate question to ask Dr. Eid on his board.  I would be VERY hesitant to allow a doctor who does 4 or 5 implants per year to touch my penis regardless of how nice or professional he is otherwise.  There are high-volume, medium-volume, low-volume, and micro-volume or beginners.  While these are loose definitions, I think 4 or 5 per year is clearly in the lowest category.

Thanks for responding Hawk.  Will do.  I didn't realize Dr. Eid had his own board for questions.  I've found it and will ask there.  Indeed, I'm skeptical of Dr. Tran (Geneva) who does less than a handful a year.  It's why I'm desperately trying to find a recommendation for here in Europe.  I'll get there eventually... or make a trip to the US if I have to, but I can't believe that there is not a high volume, qualified surgeon on this side of the pond.
