Vancouver, BC, Canada
- 3 months to be seen by the urologist/surgeon
- 9 months to surgery.
So it's one year all in all from being referred by my family doctor until surgery.
The procedure was covered by Canadian public health care.

I contacted Dr. Kramer's office on August 9th 2017 -- spent about a week thinking about it and then on August 15th I asked to be scheduled for an implant. Less than 4 weeks later I met with Dr. Kramer on Sept 12th, and then had the implant surgery the next day on the 13th, so:

1) Just under 4 weeks
2) 1 day
3) I'm in Colorado, but I went to Maryland for the surgery -- though discussing this with a local implant surgeon would've been a similar timeline
ED since 35 with no known cause -- injections successful for over a decade with 10/1/30 and less than 20units but that became ineffective. Implanted penoscratally by Dr. Kramer of Baltimore on 9/13/17 with AMS 700 LGX 21cm + 0.5cm RTE at 47 years old
