From requesting an initial consultation to the date of the surgery

Hi,
I had a consultation on the NHS in May. I was advised that surgery would be in December or Jan. I have not received any notification since then.

I forgot to add that going private is of course much quicker with waiting times counted in weeks rather than months.

I got my referral in early August, still waiting. I had a letter last week saying that I was now on the waiting list, so I guess that's 5 months just to get ON the waiting list.

I was put on a waiting list in September and was lucky to get a last minute cancellation, had the surgery yesterday. Will be posting separately about it, but so far so good.

My consultation was in June 2022 (by video)

Dr confirmed I required an implant (no insurance)

Surgury in September 2022 - Dr Clavell

Could of been earlier but I had to organize flights from overseas, and accomodation in Houston

Are you waiting on a certain doctor or just any? I'm thinking of finding someone with real experience. I'm also from the UK.

Any knowledge on how much private could cost too lol? I have no idea..

Would you not go private to speed it all up? Is it costly?

I'm only 28 but this pretty much messed up my sex life the past 6 months (none), and I want to at least be in my early thirties with a "normal" penis - want to just get an implant or something...

Does it fix everything?

Dr Eid is located in NY.
I think  his implant surgery is about $28,000, but you can Google him and obtain lots of information via YouTube and his websites.
