Eid vs Hakky — opinions please

[TheCanalGuy]

I was considering Dr Eid, Dr Hakky and Dr Clavell. They all seem extremely good and they all are Coloplast Center of Excellence. I ended up choosing Dr Clavell because Dr Eid is close to retirement, not his statement but rather my logical conclusion given his age, Dr Hakky is difficult to establish a contact with, again my opinion I had to wait two months for the first telemedice appointment and the assistant announced me an exorbitant consultation price in the range of $500. With Dr Clavell things have been much more expedite, his availability for the first consultation was in a matter of 2 weeks or less and the consultation cost was just a little above $100. After the consultation I have received a follow-up email from him, we have even had a new phone call initiated by him and he has literally answered around 20 of my emails within a couple of hours from when I sent them, no exception. He has demonstrated that he knows what he is doing, he fully understands our concerns, he would maximize our size to the maximum extent allowed by nature and he is using identical or similar approaches as Dr Eid and Dr Hakky. You should consider him too. Please note I have no financial interest in promoting Dr Clavell, just reporting my own experience, as a matter of fact I am booked for the 26th of January 2022 with him to become Bionic. Feel free to PM me if you want to share more opinions privately.

Sorry that you was quoted such a hefty consult fee. I think readers should consider that sometimes in our free market medical system. Popularity can lead to higher prices sometimes. I'm not saying its good or bad, just reality. Just thinking out loud here. Sometimes chasing the popular surgeon isn't the best idea. Number 2, 3 or even 4 might be just as good.
A small point that some members might want to consider. Good luck to all of you.

in regards to the consulting fee, dr eid has a 250 consulting fee as well.
in my case my insurance (BCBS) paid the fee and i just had to pay 40 dollar copay.

i think you should ask them if your insurance can cover the costs.

I didnt think Dr Hakky was hard to establish contact with. I recently reached out to his office via his website and he personally responded within a couple of hours on a Saturday. Got into his office in a couple of weeks. First visit he gave me his personal cell number. Great guy!

You are lucky, I had to struggle to convince the assistant to give me a telemedicine appointment and eventually I got it for the beginning of January 2022, when I contacted him through his webform in November and furthermore at a far beyond reasonable fee. I eventually decided to cancel the appointment.

Many thanks for the opinions and info, guys! As if there weren't enough hurdles to get over to get this done, now there's Omicron using up all the hospital facilities...
Anyhow, thanks again -- greatly appreciated!

I am 28 years old and from Germany. I was operated by Eid on December 16 (Titan 22) and traveled alone. Started cycling two days after surgery. Am back to my original length and girth and not fully pumped up yet (which is amazing since I had 6 inches of girth before the implant).
Two days after surgery I pulled out the catheter and walked around New York, meeting people and seeing sights as if nothing had happened (headed back to Germany on December 23).
The penis looks and feels great and natural. I still have my own blood flow. Pump placed perfectly.

Of course I don't have my own comparisons but when I read about experiences from other docs here in the forum I come to the conclusion that Eid simply is that good.
Either that or he is a magician.

Hi,

Eid did my implant on the 10th and had great results too. My consult was also covered. He was always assessable via text and my recovery has been very minimal so I am very happy and am not looking back.

As someone who will also be travelling to the states from another country to get an implant--how do follow up appointments work? did you just skip them altogether or did you do them via zoom or something?

I met him again the day before I left, but that wasn't really necessary.

You get his private cell phone number. There you can reach him at any time if you have any questions. And I don't see any problem in arranging a zoom call at any time.
The very first consultation was also a Zoom Call and that was organized quickly and without problems.
