Am I the only one who finds it alarming that some surgeons still talk like this about patients as if it was the 1940s, in no small part to cover up their own malpractice?

The mnemonic CURSED Patient is presented: "Compulsive/obsessive, Unrealistic, Revision, Surgeon Shopping, Entitled, Denial, and Psychiatric." Although the majority of IPP patients experience excellent, durable satisfaction and outcomes, a challenging subset of patients may be at increased risk of postoperative dissatisfaction. Appropriate recognition/prevention and management of this cohort may help to establish and strengthen relationships, reduce physical, emotional, and legal risk, and ultimately enhance patient satisfaction.

What makes it so despicable is that male doctors KNOW how sensitive ALL MEN are about their penises. It's outrageous to suggest that if someone is unhappy with a result, say they lost length, that this is because they're "unrealistic" or even "psychiatric." "This man is so obsessed with his penis, he's genuinely certifiable!" ALL MEN ARE OBSESSED WITH THEIR PENISES!

@fucked0ne, i just noticed that you were implanted by Kramer. How were your results? I saw a lot of his videos on youtube and wonder how real patients feel after surgery

Discovernew, I had a great result from Kramer and would recommend him wholeheartedly. Kramer is also very easy to get in touch with should you have any questions or concerns. A very affable guy, and a terrific surgeon.

I'm not really sure by what you mean by "how real patients feel"?

I mean if you look at YouTube videos almost all surgeons sound good. But I care more about what patients have to say more than what the doctors say about themselves.
What I am trying to say is you never ask a car salesman if the car they are selling is good, I'd rather ask people who have already bought that car to know if it's good or not

I'm glad you had a great experience with Kramer

I see you were implanted with the Infla10. Does this make have any specific advantages over the AMS or Coloplast? I heard it can increase in length, but so can the LGX. Is it built better in any way? Like greater reduced probability for breakages? What I would love is an inflatable that's actually GUARANTEED for a certain amount of set years; or, an inflatable guaranteed for life. With the kinds of materials we have now, I don't really see why that would be impossible. Maybe I'll make that a question for a unique post.

It has bigger girth than AMS (23mm), also it has 4 layers instead of 3, and it's supposed to have better rigidity than the LGX. Plus I saw a number of satisfied users in the forum so I decided to give it a try. Plus no dog ears in comparison to Coloplast.

Unfortunately, I have floppy glans (this has nothing to do with the implant model)
