Hello,,
Recently joined this site. After prostate radiation, erection gotten worse. Looking into implant as a friend recently had one and said it is great.
I live in Pittsburgh and am trying to find a surgeon locally who has done quite a lot of these but don't know where to start. Any recommendation?

I am married, 70 yo, prostate radiation January 2020 completed, diabetes. ED worsening for 15 years. Viagra some help, injections usually helped but hated them. Thanks for any help! Ray

Welcome. Do an advanced search on Frank Talk for Pittsburgh and limit searches to the Implant section. See what others say. 2nd. would be to Email or call Coloplast and AMS for recommendations. After all that see what Dr. has done the most IPP surgeries and has the most experience.

Alfa88,
Thanks for the advice! Will check out your recommendations. Appreciate it. Hope your recent t implant works out well for you. I should have done that when I was younger .

This is exactly what the physician finder is for! It is far from complete, but the requirements to list a doctor on franktalk are very high and I have spoken to each of these doctors and many I know personally.
BTW - if you have nominations for a doctor who should be listed on franktalk, please let me know!

Thank you, Paul. Unfortunately not any Doctors listed for Pittsburgh area where I live but several in other states. I didnt see Dr. Kramer on your list...several have mentioned him . Ray

Hi buddy,

Go to Menu and click on the 3 dash lines icon on top right of your screen. It will show a list of items. Click on Physician Finder, type in your zip code and it should show doctors who treat ED, including putting in implants. In my case, there were none listed for Pittsburgh, closest one was in Ohio. Good luck! Ray
