Surgeon recommendations?

Postby DonBecker54 » Thu Jul 02, 2015 5:25 pm

I've done a search, but couldn't find a thread listing top-notch surgeons. I've seen Doctors Eid, Milam and Karpman recommended, but don't recall others.

One's in NYC and one's in CA, both too far to travel. Milam would be just 1.5 hours from me, but he's not doing implant surgery any more.

Any other recommendations for proven top-notch surgeons in states around Alabama?

Thanks for any replies.

Thanks. This story doesn't give me the warm fuzzies, although its veracity is questionble: http://www.miaminewtimes.com/news/coral ... er-6385689

That's strange, he's one the top surgeons. Do you have an idea why?

No idea. I think I read somewhere else on this forum that he wasn't doing surgery anymore. It's a shame, with him just 1.5 hours away.

Hi,

DR. Andrew Kramer. I like the way he moves his hands, very smooth.

Dr Robert J Cornell in Houston. he performs hundreds of implant per year. He has corrected some of the work other doctor have botched up. He is good, fast and knows his work, but don't expect him to hold your hand he is in and out in a flash.

Agree with Dr. Kramer- very slick technician. Perito has a lot of "dirt" if you google him

DOWNER if Milam is not doing the surgery any more. Just met my deductible this week and since he and Eid are the only docs that said they had no issue installing me a 3 piece I was going to call Milam for an appt for early winter surgery. Milam would have been in driving distance. Sucks major wind like a Kirby vacuum. Doubt I'll ever save enough for the pre surgery testing , motel, airfare, taxi fares and such to go to NY. About enough to make a man cry after 3 years and 15 docs till I found one. Good luck to you man. d
LGX 21cm .Milam 01/13/16. Horror; both service and surgical outcome. hated infrapubic installation. Kramer revision 03/01/17. 22cm Titan +1.5cm extender. Those who think their opinion is the only one that matters are a danger to themselves and others.
