That was very thoughtful of you Hugh....@ caninoespacial... as indicated by others there are indeed other great surgeons , not just Kramer and Eid. They are the most well known. Hugh, Tybeeman and I have a fantastic surgeon here in the USA in the great state of Georgia... Dr. Hakky is his name.
Do your research ask question, send emails to potential Doctors and hospitals.... Set up yourself a Gofund me page. Not sure if you know what that is, but you can search for it on the web..... Keep looking.

Yes, doctor Hakky also has many recomendations, it's great to have a more than two options, I was starting to get really worried about the seemingly narrow range of choices.



There are thousands of great doctors world wide. Just because they aren't on the FrankTalk list of two doesn't mean a thing. My doctor refuses to advertise and even asked me to stop working on his behalf. He has more patients then he can handle. He says that every year at the conference for urologists, he hears the same thing.... everybody is busy. Urologists here in Canada also treat women... every heard of a woman with a penile implant? No, of course not. They also perform many other types of surgery. Are they "high volume" penile implant specialists? I have no idea. I research online. I found a few bad comments about my surgeon. Basically the complaints were that he never listens and doesn't make time to answer questions... Now, for "THE REST OF THE STORY". Dr. Brock has such respect for his patients that he keeps his appointments ON TIME. Some patients ask no questions and others want him to spend all day asking every stupid question you can think of... "Do all Capricorn's get prostrate cancer"? I know there are no stupid questions but... there is too stupid questions. So I do my homework and discover that my surgeon is a professor and teaches worldwide... back in May he was teaching in Australia... He has many awards and has been posted dozens of times. So I go in to my appointment and he is very pleasant. He answered all my questions and gave me his card with his personal email address. Then I think of a few more questions so, not wanting to bother him, I email his secretary and figure she can get the answer and pass it on to me. Nope, Dr. Brock personally calls me within less than 24 hours. Once again, he answered all my questions. Since then I have had about twenty email conversations with him. Is he a high volume implant surgeon? Who knows. My point here is, you don't have to do 5 implants a day to be a great surgeon.:)

Larry I agree. Granted anyone that has taught will say there are no stupid question. Ther are ignorant, does not apply total off topic questions.

I think that when we talk about our surgerons it should just be he/she did this for me, did not do this. I have no idea how many surgeries Dr Hakky does. I do know his pratice has it own surgery center i think 6 dr total. He does his his implants on Monday did prostate reduction on a Thursday is at his other location on Wenesday. He still responds to emails quickly unless his phone falls in water.

Absolutely the point I was trying to make. Not every patient my doctor sees needs a penile implant. He has to take care of everyone. Because he is so diverse, he is a great urologist at many kinds of surgery. I have found him to be very pleasant but if not, who the hell cares. When he has the knife in his hand, I'm sleeping. As long as he is good at what he does (and he is), that's all I care about. :)

Folks, thanks for all the replies. I have more bad news... these have been hard times for me, definitely. My plans for curing my ED have been delayed, two weeks ago I got myself into a car crash. I was really bad injuried and went through hell in the first week, I hate being hospitalized, the last days were terrible. Got a gigantic blood stain in one of my eyes, burned 25% of my face and broke my leg in two places... I never thought I would go through so much shit at the same time in my life.

Oh, brother! I was so sorry to hear about all the shit that's been added to your life. Please know that you are in my prayers (and I wish I lived close enough to do more).

Thanks David, it's very comforting to be on yours prayers, I need some light right now. I think you are right, Larry, it's just a delay. I just feel tired of it all. A lot. I literally don't feel my penis anymore by the way. I think it's because of all the depression I am going through, cant even imagine sex or anything related right now. I was reading the unbearable lightness of being and just dropped because of all the sex. It's hard. About the ED, I feel like I'm going to injections first, there is little I can do to avoid them at first, and it's a more quick solution. but I'm not even interested that much, I read so many stories about sex encounters and seems like no one goes only one round, wich is what injections would give me. Being 21, this gets even worse. Oh guys, it's being hard.

So, when I was your age, my wife and I had sex at least once a day. After she started having kids it severely fucked up our sex life. As the years went by sex was less and less often Approaching my mid 40's I was lucky if I got it once a month and even then I felt like she was saying to herself "oh for god sake, hurry up". Then my dick problems started to get worse and worse. Then I met the butchers... Dr. Steele and Dr. Davidson from Kingston Ontario. These two incompetent boobs, took me to the OR and with the stroke of a scalpel, started ruining my life. Finally I met Dr. Woods and Dr. Brock and things started looking up. By now, my wife was getting horny again, just like when we were in our 20's but now, I was like her, not interested and wanted it to be over in 2 minutes or less. I talked to my family doctor and he did some bloodwork and discovered that my testosterone level was low. He put me on this Androgel shit which was gloopy and smelled like rubbing alcohol. I hated it. I had to rub it all over my belly. Now I stunk of it and I was pretty sure it was coming off on to my shirt and the shit just simply wasn't working. Again, I talked to my doctor and prescribed the self injections. 2.5ml every three weeks. After the first two injections, I was back to my horny old self. BUT then the efforts of the two Kingston screw-up's hit me and sex was painful and I was bleeding every time. Dr's Woods and Brock discussed the benefits of the implant (which I had never heard of) and I was a believer. I went to the OR for the implant and the rest of the story everyone on here know about. I know this is a very long story but I wanted you to understand that maybe it low T levels. Maybe this is one reason you're not feelin' it. Physically, and I'm sure you have been told many times, give it time. Nerve ends don't rejuvenate quickly. Trust me. Things will start looking up for you. Give it time and think positive. :)

Cranio,
Man o man am I sorry to hear about your latest setback. That sucks. Don't give up.
It's not the shit that happens to us that defines who we are. It's what we do about the shit that gives us the raw material to build our lives.

I'm not one who believes everything happens for a purpose, or that things are part of "God's plan". Shit happens, life changes its mind and we get knocked down sometimes. Believe me, I never thought my life would look like this, with the losses and heartaches my wife and I have suffered. But here we are. And there you are -- pretty shitty, but not as bad as others. All of this crap doesn't define you. You've shown incredible strength and courage. That's who you are.

PM me any time.
