Vertica Device

[Bluepy]

Has anyone on this forum heard of or used the Vertica device for erectile dysfunction? it's being promoted as a new ''cure'' or treatment for venous leak

It's been mentioned on UroChannel's youtube and they are currently doing a trial at UCI led by Urologist Faysal Yafi.

I believe it's avaiable already to buy in certain countries but it's quite expensive (1,500 euros ) for something that is still a little unknown  


The clinical trial is supposed to end in july 2025

What do you all think? just another gimmick. i'm curious for the clinical trial results as i believe Faysal Yafi has a good reputation

First time hearing about it. I'm sure it is just a big $$ for Dr's delivering little improvement for patients. Sounds like shock wave technology with added heat to me.

Also my first time hearing about it. I second mikel's opinion. One thing I noticed was that you can try this thing at San Diego sexual medicine. Been there in 2016 and the staff was great at the time. I assume Dr Irwin still practices there.

He is very knowledgeable in ED. But I wonder about this device too... If it won't end up being just a gimmick.
