Eid, Hakky or Clavell.

Hey guys,

As you know, I have issues with the graft retracting, pain by the frenulum (possible stitch granuloma, chronic irritation or inflammation).

In your opinion, which doc would be best to consult with regarding these issues? I know Dr Eid uses Grafts, and Dr Hakky does sub-coronal incisions which would require circumcision, not sure about Clavell.

I am in Australia, and a consult with either, will cost me almost 1000 Australian dollars.

Thanks,
J

Dr. Clavell charges 200 USD which is about 325 Australian dollar. Not sure about the others. I have met Dr. Eid but my insurance paid for it. For Clavell, the approval from insurance was taking time so they charged me 200$ and later reimbursed.

Aside, you can also look at speaking to my urologist in Delhi NCR. His name is Dr. Raman Tanwar. He is very qualified and knowledgeable. I did not get my surgery from him in India because I had the option for USA with insurance and also because the 3pc IPP is not very popular here. But I can vouch for Dr. Raman. He is quite good. His fees is about 700 Indian Rs for a consult.

Atul

Thanks Atul, how did you manage to get insurance in USA when you are from India? Is your Doc Raman Tanwar familiar with grafting and circumcision?

Also, did you have a consult with Dr Clavell? What was your experience?

Thanks again,

Simple, he was living in the USA. He was able to time his surgery just before he left.

Yes, I was living in the USA when I got my surgery done. So I had insurance through my ex-wife’s employer.

I will pm you about Dr. Raman.

My consultation with Dr. Clavell was very good. I quite liked him. He answered all my questions very patiently and was very accommodating to my specific situation. Also, I interact a lot with a fellow brother here who himself is a surgeon and had decided to keep Dr. Clavell as his choice of surgeon had Dr. Eid not resumed his work. So if a surgeon himself is choosing Clavell, it shows that he is very good and competent.

I paid around 200 for a consult with Clavell, 250 for Eid, and like 400 for Hakky.

All three consults were great, but sadly with differing opinions
