James... i think your making a big mistake. We need journals like yours... it helps us with a lot of our questions and doubts. I'm saddened that this is a decision you feel you have to make. I never thought things could be so political on this forum. When the supposed intention is to help ourselves...

No. Maryland, on the border of DC. Baltimore and other doctors I was considering are closer to me AND covered 100% by AETNA. I think it depends on the plan. Commute to NY to see Eid is not inexpensive either. First consultation wasn't covered by AETNA either. I'll see him on Thursday for injection a...

Correct! I have AETNA also. Deductible and everything for me is about $10,000. I think she told me that my hospital and everything is covered. Eid's office is still checking into it.

Correct me if I am wrong gents, but the medical costs for Dr. EID would be about $26,000.00 to $27,000.00. Plus... medications, travel, and food. TT That should be about right. Another surgeon who I was considering before deciding on Eid, added all the cost and told me $28000. He was "in netwo...

After reading and researching different surgeons and on advise of some of the bionic brothers, I finally decided to go with Dr. Eid. Met with him on Monday for consultation. Told him that I'm perhaps one of his more informed patients and went right down to more specific questions. His infection and ...

Best of luck to you buddy! I wish mine was so soon. Let us know how it goes.

I "cold called" Dr Eid's office after reviewing his website and his youtube videos. Did the phone consultation, and felt confident in his demeanor and knowledge, experience and ability. Didn't't meet him until two days prior to surgery for my preop appointment (ultrasound, dick stretch et...

People, Sam and I, both, were damaged (physically and emotionally) by the same surgeon, aside of being deceived about the device we got implanted. He does not handle well failure, and is very quick to pointing fingers to others to justify his bad job. Sam’s and mine experiences are not isolated. I ...

Wishing you the best. I wish mine was coming up so soon. I'll meet with Dr. Eid and his brother Dr. Did on the 16th. Just have to wait my turn, I guess. Don't know how far out he'll schedule me.
Let us know how it goes.
Best

First impressions are important. Take away from it how the urologist makes you feel. If they're warm and comforting, if they listen to you, have lots of ideas for you, suggestions on test they want to run, those are great things. If the urologist is cold and rushed and doesn't listen or seem to car...
