Your Urologist may request a medical evaluation by your Primary Care Physician before performing your surgery. A medical clearance is essentially authorization from an evaluating doctor that a patient is cleared, or deemed healthy enough, for a proposed surgery.

A preoperative physical examination is essentially the same thing as getting 'medical clearance. It is performed at the request of your Urologist to ensure that you are healthy enough to safely undergo anesthesia and surgery. This evaluation includes a physical examination, cardiac evaluation, lung function assessment, and appropriate laboratory tests.

The purpose of medical clearance is to assess your personal risk related to undergoing a surgical procedure. If you have comorbidities your Urologist may want another doctor familiar with your medical history to offer perspective on whether the procedure is safe for you and ways to reduce risk.

Your Primary Care Physician is the Doctor who manages your medical care. He/she will provide the appropriate information.

Nearly all men will experience some erectile dysfunction for the first few months after prostate cancer surgery.

Treatment options for ED include medication, injections, a vacuum device, implants and pelvic floor exercises.

There are medications that can provide noticeable results if used in the early stages of hair loss. For men who have significant hair loss, surgical hair transplantation is the only proven way to restore natural hair growth. Hair transplant surgery is safe when performed by a qualified, experienced Doctor. Outcomes however are never predictable. In transplant procedures there is always a risk that some of the grafts won\'t "take," the skin plug may die and surgery may have to be repeated. If hair loss progresses after surgery, an unnatural, "patchy" look may result if the newly-placed hair lies next to patches of hair that continue to thin out. If so, additional surgery may be required.

Peptides are short chains of amino acids that our body produces naturally. Peptides act as hormones; they deliver messages from tissue to blood, regulate appetite and more.   They can be used for muscle gain or weight loss, recovery, and reduced inflammation. Compared to steroids and testosterone peptides are more of a ‘medium burn’ for those who know that hours at the gym are necessary for the body we want. Where you get your peptides is especially important. Trained, experienced medical professionals should be your only source.
