Hello FT. Have been thinking about implant for a while now and just saw Dr. Yafi this week for my first consultation. I was a little underimpressed and I am inclined towards an AMS implant (for various reasons).
Anyone have any recommendations for a trustworthy surgeon in southern California. I've read about the Dr Eid and Dr Perito, but prefer not to travel too far. Thanks in advance.

Re: Recommendations for Implant Surgeon in Southern California
I agree with dr Doyle from USC , he is great and the hospital staff are fantastic, Dr Doyle also has Dr Boyd assist in the surgeries and he was one of the original pioneers of the IPP
39 01/24/19 USC Dr Doumanian LGX 15cm 3, lGX 18 +2, revision 6-20 18+3 pump failure, revision 8-20 left cylinder in scrotum, 1-21 removed infection switched to dr Doyle, Boyd 10.05.21 a 15+3 cx,revision 01,23,24 with switch to LGX 15+6 fat pad removal.
Re: Recommendations for Implant Surgeon in Southern California
Loh-Doyle seems to be a good one in SoCal. If you don't want to travel I'd for sure consult with him.
I live in northern CA, I traveled to Houston to have Dr. Clavell perform my surgery. I know you don't want to travel, but Houston is about half the distance to Eid or Perito and I preferred Clavell anyway. I had the surgery Wednesday late morning and was on a 4 hour flight back home Friday at 9am with no pain and very little discomfort (his pain management and nerve block worked like a charm)
I also self paid, and Clavell was much less expensive for exactly what I wanted. As you know, this is not a surgery you shop price on, you want it perfect the first time.
Good luck in your search.

Re: Recommendations for Implant Surgeon in Southern California
Thanks all - I am making an appointment to see Dr. Doyle! I have some mild peyronie's disease and hoping the implant will fix that plus the erection problems.

If you are near Orange County and want to travel south towards San Diego - I highly recommend Dr. Darshan Patel at UCSD. It was a very smooth experience from start to finish, very responsive to questions and concerns, and he takes care of a lot of botched implants from all over the area and has a solution for everything.
I think his main office is in La Jolla but he also has office near Rancho Santa Fe which may be easier for travel.
62 year old, ED+PD, Coloplast Titan 22 cm no RTE in 2019 with Dr. Irwin Goldstein => failure, now with plaque excision/tunical expansion to Coloplast Titan 26 no RTE in 2022 by Dr. Darshan Patel, now with classic pump 2024 
Re: Recommendations for Implant Surgeon in Southern California
I also recommend Dr LoDoyle. I had a 30 degree bend at midship and the lgx 700 straightened it out. They had me 80% hard for 4 weeks to fix it. It hurt like hell but that was 5 years ago.

Re: Recommendations for Implant Surgeon in Southern California
Thanks everyone - I scheduled an appointment with Dr. Loh Doyle and Dr. Patel for the next few weeks. I've also scheduled a virtual call with Dr Clavell. Hoping to have as good as an experience as you all have had. Excited for what's to come.

No different doctor - Darshan Patel is in San Diego at University of California. i found him on the edcure.org website and on this physician finder. Jeff Doyle still at USC.
For me in Aliso Viejo in Orange County its about a 1.5 hr drive to each.
