Hi Rick P here. Im not sure if Im in the right place. Anyway I am scheduled to have a penile implant in one week with a local surgeon.I'm not sure how many he has done. I now have a chance to have Dr.Kramer to do it.I just don't know when he can do it.Any suggestions should I cancel the local dr.Thanks Rick.

Go with Kramer. I did. And I'm so glad I did.

Not knowing who your local doctor is, or what his experience with implantation is, it's hard to say. But IMO you will never find a surgeon as skilled and compassionate as Andrew Kramer. He did mine in 2008 and still remains immediately accessible by phone and email for questions. All things being equal I'd choose Dr. Kramer over any other surgeon.

Thanks guys. Im new here that was my first post.Anyway I'm waiting for Dr Kramer office to call me back right now.When did you have yours done. Also any problems. Sorry if I'm not posting correctly..Thanks again

Oh I forgot Im 66 years old.Also my local surgeon is Dr Jay Lutins out of Pittsburgh.He said he's done hundreds but I can't find any proof of that. Thanks again Rick

Besides his skill as a surgeon what I really appreciate about Dr. Kramer is the fact that anytime I email him he responds right away or sometimes even calls. Not that I've had any real issues but I've had questions and he always follows up quickly.

Mine was in 2008 (Titan). Had zero problems post-op, and no subsequent problems with the implant. Dr Kramer is well worth the (relatively) short drive from Pittsburgh. Let us know what you decide!

I agree 100%. I had a couple of quick questions a couple of weeks ago & he got back to me within 20 minutes. Will see him next week in Baltimore for the activation. Couldn't be more pleased with the entire experience...if your insurance/financial situation will cover Kramer, I'd go with him...based on my experience as well as others on this board, Kramer appears to be the "gold standard" at present in this field...

I am with the others, go to Dr. Kramer as one of my recent friends will be going this month and doing the 8 hr drive as he is worth it.

Well thanks a lot guys.I have a surgery date on 1/18/17 with Dr Kramer.I still can't believe it happened this quick, he had a canelation. I spoke with him today he put all my fears at ease.(What a great guy)....Thanks again everyone.........And dirtman thank you for posting your journey it helped me more than you know....Hell Frank Talk is the best thing since sliced bread lol.As you all can tell I'm a little excited.Bionic, Bionic, Bionic, yeah
