Hi Charlie, In a previous post you asked me about my insurance coverage, and I forgot to include that in my answer. Sorry. I have Medicare and Tricare. Paid every dime of it. The only expense I had was getting there, and only cost gas, because I drove from Orlando to Coral Gables and back. I did sta...

Hi Charlie, Maybe I can give you some more info. I am 82, and 12 weeks post op. This is the best thing ever to happen. My wife is 70, and ansolutely thrilled. My doc had implanted a 92 old guy shortly before mine. my only regret is that i didnt have it done 30 years ago. it will absolutely change yo...

Hello LM - sure glad you are doing so well. If you remember, I had mine done by Dr. Perito about 11 weeks ago. Had very little pain, and no problems. Life is great now. I will never forget Dr. Perito. He is indeed a great surgeon. Glad you got to him on your second time around. You have had a rough ...

Hi David -- Hope you are felling much better by now. I also had my implant by Dr. Perito, and had no trouble at all. I am 11 weeks post op now, and everything is great. One of the reasons I chose Dr. Perito was because of his ability to get it done in a very short time, therefore, greatly reducing t...

Hello old car. I'm 82. Had my implant done in July this year, and my only regret is that I didn't do it 20 years ago. If you have any questions, ask away. I'll be glad to help.

Hi olivero. Yes, and I'm sure glad, too. The operative site caused no pain. As I previously reported, my wife removed stitches at 15 days post op. At this stage, I am hoping and praying that others just beginning this journey will come thru as well as I did. I can't begin to explain how this has cha...

My doc was dr Paul Perito, coral gables fl. He has done more than 6000 implants, and it really shows. I would highly recommend him. I had a little pain the first night. After that, had it easy. He activated me 4 wks post op, and everything has been great. My wife is an M.D., and was with me the whol...

I am about 11 weeks post op and feel absolutely great in every respect. My only regret is that I didn't have this done 15 years ago. I can now do things that a 20 year old guy cannot do, even on his best day. My initial pain was very little, and recovery was easy. My wife is completely satisfied, an...

Hey Softglans, I can appreciate your concern about VL. I, too, was diagnosed with VL. That coupled with long term diabetes, severely hampered my ability for sexual activity. Viagra, CIA Isis, etc., injections, and everything else did little to help. My doc recommended implant, which was done in earl...

Alan, welcome and congrats on recent journey. I am about 5 weeks ahead of you and I have to tell you -- life is great.
Ask away on your questions. You will get some super help here.

Blessings

Charlie
